MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Kilter is where Les gets his clothing made.
  2. Some of the older kits have some nasty ejector pin marks on the floor. I find that embossing powder is easier than dealing with them 🙂
  3. I think you actually need a Rochester 2GC, not a Carter. https://nationalcarburetors.com/Pontiac-1961-1967-326-389-400-Rochester-2GC_p_868.html
  4. I wish Atlantis would bring back the 1/32 Ford and Chevy (if they wound up with the molds).
  5. I build my models as if I had originally ordered the car to my specs, so I would do the 326 4-barrel in this case. That said, the 215 Pontiac looks a lot like the Chevy 230 painted blue and seems to be based on it. If you want that, do the research and adapt an AMT Nova wagon engine. A friend had a 64 'pest 2 door post with the 215 for a while before the 2008-2009 crash forced him to sell it. It accelerated like fog and got dismal fuel economy.
  6. Yes. I use face slime on matte-finish paint to impart a new leather or vinyl look. For larger scale kits, you may need to borrow some slime from your (in)significant other.
  7. Online brochure shows the 350-2 and the 454 not available in California.
  8. Cheer up Bill. Our warehouse guy brought me a package that they found while "cleaning" last week. He said that it was behind a shelf unit. It had to have been from late 2016 or early 2017, based upon what it was. It wasn't something I had ordered, it was something that we get sent as samples, so it wasn't really missed.
  9. Spring is in the air here in NorCal. Mulberry is starting to bloom and the tulips and daffodils are going crazy. It's warm enough for the lizards to venture out to the concrete walkways to bask, and the 1994 Chevy S-10 passed its smog test today. Shorts and T-Shirt was the uniform of the day for me.
  10. Would showering you in kits lessen the pain? (Not making a joke, an ex-colleague's mom has MS and it is no laughing matter) Hope the pain goes away soon, you are one of the nicest people I have met on this forum.
