Look on eBay, filter results to sold listings. Average the results. -
Movie directors... your opinion?

Eastwood, Tarantino, and Guy Ritchie. -
Galaxie Car Hauler
chunkypeanutbutter replied to iamsuperdan's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Thanks for the info. Looks pretty good, but I suppose that's with some help from creative photography! -
Mini Broadspeed rehash by novice.

You should definitely send this to a resin caster that could pop many of them out - I'm sure there's a pretty big calling for them. -

Nice trailer, but where's the Audi from? -
Tower Hobbies says $14.99; I'm buying at least five.

Another musician checks out...

Suicide. Self-inflicted gunshot wound. Strange thing, I bought their first LP just yesterday at Goodwill. -
I'd say mint green. Faded paint with "sun-bleached" patina, no structural rust. Your model, though!

Love it. Might steal this idea.

Revell 1991 Ford F-350 Duallie

I bet this'll stop those obnoxious resellers on eBay parting out one of these kits with each part listed for $20! -
Car engine quiz.

38/40. Oops. Seems to be common, though! -
Cover versions of songs by "nobodies"
chunkypeanutbutter replied to Harry P.'s topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Quite under-the-radar in the USA, but with a small following in Australia, Jay Wilson of Tame Impala does solo electronic music under the name 'Gum.' https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lVeNfjoI2eM -
After seeing Daxman's Datsun 510 post-apocalyptic sedan-truck, I got an idea. I had a Datsun pickup body and interior on my stereo desk, and I just bought an RC tank at work for an apocalypse car mashup.... Only natural that this happened. This was only one night, so there are some thing that should need doing, like a couple more details to cover over goobers... but that'll happen in a few months, probably. Revell Escalade EXT engine... *ahem* "engine." Rocket from a Lindberg Cobra Helicopter. Someone tried to chain-lasso this thing, and lost an arm in the process, Mad Max Cundalini-style. (It's Casey Luna's arm, from the Monogram kit.) Double-lever steering, these were made from parts-box shocks. The seats are from a Revell Willys pickup. So, yes; there are quite a few rough spots. I could do better with some weathering powders, my set of which I have lost. However, it looks good on the shelf, and I like that.

Old bicycle wheels at the dump. Spokes are usually the perfect size. -
Least favorite?
chunkypeanutbutter replied to CometMan's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Dad worked at a Ford dealer from '80 to early '90. After seeing so many Tempos get sold and come back days later for everything conceivable, they became known by the techs as the "Tempon." -
The slippery slope of banning donk wheels
chunkypeanutbutter replied to Lownslow's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Signed and shared. They'd better think of the drastic effects on the American economy if they pass this into law.
