Ray- I'm sorry to say, but I don't believe that kits are making a come back.

Whoever thought that they would see people walking around in bell bottoms again? Why do people take perfectly new furniture, and scratch it up to make it look like old stuff that we threw in the garbage when I was a kid? Have you noticed that people are buying new cars that look like the old cars? The New Mustang, PT Cruiser, Beetle, and many others! Its all about nostalgia! When something new comes out, people will flock to it in droves, but given time people always yern for things to look and feel like they did in the past, or what they remeber as being great as a kid. I just sold a 25 year old Frogger Video game on ebay for $35. Why in the heck would someone want that when there are all kinds of high tech video games out now? Nostalgia is why! Since many years have passed, I bet Ford could even sell some Edsils now! LOL
