Can you recommend a website where I can find some good model kits? Nobody sells them in stores around here anymore and I'd love to put one together

is a directory for what what type of model you're looking for. (boats, cars, sci fi, war, etc)

finds hobby stores closest to you. You're right, there aren't a whole of them left.
