  1. Rex that is an impressive decal sheet. Website order form didn't work for international sales so I sent an email.
  2. 3.5 hours into the 24 has gotten me from here http://images18.fotki.com/v329/photos/9/65249/9185293/DSC08862-vi.jpg to here http://images114.fotki.com/v145/photos/9/65249/9185293/DSC08885-vi.jpg Exhaust had to be moved from left side to right. Cockpit side cutout had to be filled and bumps and bulges had to be removed http://images16.fotki.com/v272/photos/9/65249/9185293/DSC08875-vi.jpg http://images19.fotki.com/v677/photos/9/65249/9185293/DSC08886-vi.jpg album is here; http://public.fotki.com/DarylH/2011-24-hr-build/ AAaaacckkkkk........I probably should have put this in the on the bench forum. I'll post the rest of the build over there
  3. I would really like to do this as part of a group but I'll be flying solo again this year. The dogs will stop in for an ear scratch and my wife will be keeping me lubricated but I'll just have to maintain contact with rest of the guys on the 'net.......which is still okay I'm headed upstairs now to clear a spot on the bench and lay out some parts for an Indy Kurtis roadster build. 14 hours and 5 minutes 'til liftoff
  4. Haven't seen or heard from my cousin in over 40 years. I saw his mom, my aunt, about 10 years ago and she told me he still built model cars. It would be kinda cool to re-connect.
  5. The Cinci Scalemodelers annual show is October 31st at the Scarlet Oaks Vocational School from 9 AM to 4:30 PM Auto Models is coming in from PA with 8 vendor tables of goodies! Good door prizes, good raffle and the awarding of the 3rd Annual Hooterville Motors Real Racer Award for the best racing replica. The 2007 HMRRA went to this excellent Corvette...... The 2008 winner was this terrific Ferrari which won in multiple categories and nearly won best of show..... http://www.cincyipms.com/CSM%202009/2009%20Main%20Page.htm
  6. I found out it was Rod Maskiw of Winnipeg. Quite the piece. I remember seeing the guy across the street pop the top on his back in '59 when I was 8 years old. (Just don't ask me what I had for dinner last night!)
  7. Oh yeah......that's pretty much what I'm after. In the dimness of my memory the engine was chevy engine red. I think the air cleaner was black and I'm pretty sure that the fender wells and firewall were painted body color. I had dressed up the paint job with some stripes and I ran a set of Torque Thrust ET mags on it. That 250 six with the 2 speed auto trans was dog slow but it took me back and forth to school I remember a trip to Kalamazoo a week after I got it. The engine started running rough at the K-zoo Burger King and when I went to take the air cleaner off the whole carburetor was moving around on the manifold! I guess finger tight was good enough on the assembly line
  8. Every Camaro I see on the 'bay is a big block, small block, or Z-28 (real or fake) I need a refresher on what was under the hood of my 250 powered '71 Camaro. I took pics way back then but for some reason I never cared to show off the engine If there are no pics available I would gladly take some color suggestions
  9. Thanks Chris and Bob! I'll set up my trip when I get home from work tomorrow. It'll be the last trip this year for the Mustang before I tuck it away for the winter.
  10. I thought I could find details for the November show but I'm coming up empty. Anyone have the details handy?
  11. 1964 First Mustangs roll out and the GT40 hit the track.......looking like this.......
  12. Body headed into the dryer so I can try to get some blue on it tomorrow.... Interior black with medium blue inserts.... Engine box stock Shelby.... I'm hoping for "Toledo and Atlanta" quality
  13. I talked to Bill Lastovich at the Nats and he said he was able to get them to add some R/T parts to the Challenger kit. Also the Fairlane T-bolt kit will have a flat hood and standard grille and headlights. I didn't ask about the engine choices. The '08 Bullitt 'stang will look fine in my Bullitt collection
  14. I just got back from the IPMS Nats and put up an album of car entries. http://public.fotki.com/DarylH/the-cars-of-the-nats/ Got a chance to say hello to Norm Veber and Dave Toups. I wanted to meet Scott Bregi but didn't see him. He had an excellent '68 Firebird on the table!
