Thanks Scott. I will try it with Orange Clear

Thanks guys will do.

About 6 years ago, I read in one of the modeler mags about painting steering wheels and other interior items to look like wood. It combined I believe three different colors-possibly orange clear, red and "blank"! I am a senior styrene guy, and I just plain forgot. Can someone give me the names of the colors I need. Much obliged-cool in Texas

Just came from HL a couple of hours ago and the following were seen: K.S. Pittman Willys, Sox & Martin cart, Judge funny car, 69 Camaro, Roadrunner, and a couple of Corvettes, a 65 Malibu 396 convertible, and a 56 Crown Victoria. All kits were for $14.95. This was at the Hl in Southpark Meadows, Austin Texas! Several of these items had more than one kit.

The Seventh Cavalry horse lying in the street!

HEY WAS THAT A MUSTANG!?

In my accident, the center of the grill hit the tree, forming a perfect V the dash came back into my knees,the motor stayed put, but the tranny got knocked loose, with the competition shifter just showing the knob viewing it from the seat.

I hit a telephone pole and pecan tree at about 40 mph as I was making a turn on rain slick streets. My face hit the steering wheel and cracked it in half, must've been when I bit the steering wheel. On impact my white t-shirt turned red. Been eating with rubber teeth ever since. That was in 1970 and the car was a 442, 345 hp and 4 speed.

Hey guys just got back from HL. I managed to pick up 12 CANS of paint for $15.00!!!!, the regular price would've been close to $80.00. They were located in the Krylon paint case. I just happened to walk buy and see them. The salesgirl was gracious enough to let me take my time in selecting what I wanted. Then we went to the model car section, and I found more cans on clearance. As a happy ending I was not attacked by the supposed Jesus merchandise or any elevator music.

The cashiers at HL here in Austin are pretty good at what they do. I got a shock when I was buying a Mustang kit a few years ago, and the cashier said "hey that's a good one, I have it at home".

I bet you would've have been a good draft dodger blubber

Been going to Hl for a long time, and have never been pushed by a Bible low life. Sure they have religious articles, and we all have a choice where we shop and what aisle to go down. Have you been using your glue and paint for things other than your kits. I will pray for you.

You will find great kits on clearance, and check the paint section, you will find clearance items too. Your going for the models not the MUSIC!!!!

I was 10 when I would be allowed to watch my brother build cars. We could rarely afford them. I didn't build my own til I got married and was able to afford to buy kits.i was around age 21. Then life happened, divorce, alcoholism, any thing that would hit the fan, I experienced it. I mention that I did a tour in RVN with the First Team in 1970. I started building again in 2008, then the woman I was married to started complaining, and threatening to go out dancing without me, if I didn't stop building. Guess what I am still building, and I see her every now and then, just by accident. I am in a relationship with a Lady from Costa Rica, and she supports this 62 year old "kid" in my hobby. She even picked out a Camaro she wanted built. She also helps me with body colors. I am proud to say I am 25 years sober, and I am a Army veteran, and if somebody doesn't like it-well lets talk about it. I can still turn 18. Keep building...

Is that the Ford that is a two in one kit, with a black pro street type? I will go check my HL tomorrow. Thanks
