I dug these out as I'm moving my model area in the house. I started them 3 or 4 years back. Since then, things like the chrome spray and AK pens have come out. I'm getting close to doing the control cables and other fun stuff.

If someone runs at your car... put your helmet back on and let them punch it.

Exception work! What scale is that? I have a couple of 1:12 scale Revell choppers in the works. I have yet to find anyone making accessories for them.

A lot goes in during a race that I had missed. And if someone comes up to your car as you exit the track... they are not there to tell you what a great race you just ran.

After a race, we would walk around the car and tried to identify who I was trading paint with.

Those abomination headers were something that Junior Johnson tried for a very short while... then abandoned them. But we are stuck with them. Where are the JR headers sold? I'm good for a few sets of them

Scuff it up with something like a 3200 grit, wet. Knock the fuzzies and fly turds off. Then hit it with TS-13 clear.

I like the Slo-Gap CA glue. It gives more time to position parts. Pinning is a great method. Join the 2 sections with styrene bar where it will be hidden and not in the way. Fill the pin holes later. I use those Suisse fingernail wraps, it makes the spliced area very strong. Soak it with thin CA glue after it is placed. It has adhesive on 1 side.

It has a little gloss to it. I have some red putty that it almost covered. Ill give it another coat.

I will look for those, great idea. I bought a couple of organizers on eBay yesterday. My new 48" x 18" x 72" storage rack was delivered. I may need another one, as my styrene footprint is large. My "new" area is pretty nice, I used it before and it worked well. It has a kitchen and full bathroom.

I was in the Amityville Horror house once. It was owned by a prominent local family who also owned a couple of stock car tracks. I was picking up some posters from the promoter, I asked her if she ever saw or heard anything odd there... she laughed and said no. This was around 1982.

Brie and Mr. Beers on the table. I brought in the Amazon package inside, put it on the table and Mr. Beers promptly claimed it as HIS.

This is what I'm working with... soon to be packed up and moved to my finished basement. My son had taken over the area with his surf casting stuff, he has moved out. I need some sort of organization rack to keep it less cluttered.

I just shot some TS-101, it does cover well. Better than the white TS primer I was using.

And people crow about how great reissues are. Clapped out molds never stop AMT from spitting them out. I just got a '50 Ford kit, the latest issue. I also have an older partial-kit issue that is night and day for fit and the amount of flash the new one has. But I'm working through it.
