  1. which style? https://cults3d.com/en/search?q=texaco
  2. i did and i appologise. i completely misread it as saying dont ask questions
  3. coolest would have to be the seafood factories but thats cos they are chilled. the hardest was probably nightwatch on the boat. nothing to do most of the time but when something went wrong it was always 3 in the morning and i had to wake up the bosses. a big highlight was learning by phone how to drop the anchor when she broke loose in a storm and because the ship was under refit there were no torches to be found as everything was being certified. i saved the ship but there was a lot of damage. to be fair though, when nothing was happening i built models
  4. its almost like lightning is too obvious for ford. and theres always the probe but that might trigger et
  5. why have question section if he cant use it? some of us just are still fairly new to models so this section can help. keep asking questions Donny, they also help other folk that might not want to ask
  6. thats ony the words we know so theres proably more to find out
  7. forward facing windows were a great invention for cars
  8. ford havedone the same to the capri, from this to this
  9. How much water do they need and do they remain gritty? the instructions aren't very clear
  10. a couple of places have them reduced just now on ebay. the boxes are pretty packed too so they wouldn't even reduce much out of them. i'm enjoying the one i'm building
  11. there will be words in your post causing the rejection. s e l e c t, d e l e t e, u p d a t e, and maybe some otgers
  12. theres a few words that cause posts to rejected. Dave lists them in this thread
  13. my sister has has a pretty nice shade of red on her focus. its close to fire engine red but with a touch of orange pearl
  14. my grannies toilet suite was that colour. it really matched the purple carpet
  15. nail art striping tape. its like rolls of 1mm bmf in various colours and very cheap. can be safely cleared over with auto paints too
  16. we had to reduce the edit time. scammers were using it to add trash later
  17. i dont see why copywrite holders are worried....
  18. i think you need to add some strength/support above the front wheels. removing the bay looks like it allowed the top edge of the fender to move whereas before it held the fender in place. i'd try making a hidden brace for under the fender out of something a little firmer than styrene
  19. pat on the head sounds good until you realise its from a cow
  20. does it work if you turn it off?
  21. That would be better suited to a drag car. This one is more pro touring https://icemancollections.com/products/4-link-rear-suspension-dropped-custom-pro-touring-w-ford-9-axle
  22. I got the chassis mostly painted the other day. Unfortunatelly 2 steps later there were a couple of parts more to add which i missed seeing when i checked the instructions. I've also got the interior together and it pretty much snapped together and most parts could have been done without glue. The cab is also together after needing some heavy mold lines removed and i sanded around the doors before fitting them but could have done a little more as i still had to rescribe them after gluing them on. I'm also part way through assembling the bed but i found i didn't trim the sprue nubs back enough so there are small gaps along the edge. I only have a couple of small parts left to add to the interior part and it will be ready to spray but i think i'll be brushing the bed as i think it will look more correct for the build and possibly easier to get the aged look on the bed.
