I have bought two kit on line 1. the mac tools Limited Edition Thunderbird and 2. the #15 Quality Care Thunderbird probably the same kit different nane.
Both kits slied kits open the Tool limited edition thunderbird kit going through the kits finding part missing, in fact a hole tree is missing so that kit is junk, so go to the Quality Care Thunderbird kit open it up take out the parts and find that the same tree is missing out of the kit, well both kits are junk because the company is out of business so I am out of $30.00 and need these kit to complete my Lake Speed builds. Just be ware before buying these kits

thanks

If that is the 1989 thru 1993 thunderbird kits I can help you out with the trees that are missing, have some extra trees with the parts still on the tree.
Have to see how many I have.
Let me know witch trees are missing.

Don't ever panic if you are missing Monogram or even AMT NASCAR parts. Some of us on here (like me) have TONS of parts, started, and scrapped kits to help you out.

I will have to look to see what is missing, my question is why are parts missing, the kits were sealed and they were bagged too. 3 kits!


Thanks for helping me out

Cellophane wrappers are not hard to come by and resealing plastic bags can be done with a kitchen appliance. I would be somewhat suspicious of my supplier. One kit maybe but three is like power ball odds. That said they may have been sold these by someone else.

I bought a shrink wrap/bag sealer for my decal biz........some people may use them in a dishonest way.....only thing I can figure. Never had a whole tree missing in a Monogram kit.

I too have a bunch of parts kits that I've robbed tires, wheels, etc from. Keep us posted on what you need. I'm right over here in Clovis, NM. So anything I may send you will be free! Just ask that you help other modelers when you can. PM me with your needs if you want
