  1. That makes 3 that I have gotten correct in this entire thread
  2. I used the email listed in the Aftermarket Directory. PM sent.
  3. She reminds me of Sharon Stone.
  4. He had his hands full at the very end. Thanks for sharing the video.
  5. Can get it at the big crafting stores or online. I think even Walmart had it.
  6. Got this in the mail today. Unfortunately, the person who shipped it left everything loose in the box and the windshield and vent windows got broken off (looks like 4 pieces). I will have to set it aside until I feel confident enough to try and fix it. I will probably never find another one for as cheap as I got this one, so it isn't worth shipping back. Looks to be complete with only a few pieces started. It still has the instructions and decals.
  7. Try it in a different browser and see if you still have the same problem.
  8. I would also have to go with a wagon. Need to be able to move all of my stuff when needed. 1967 Dodge Coronet. I would need a big block with an automatic transmission and air conditioning. Any other options would be icing on the cake. There was a brief time when I was known as "Station Wagon Mike". The folks that called me that thought they were putting me down. They were wrong.
  9. Professional help. The exterminator/trapper will get them out and find where they are getting in.

    1970 Cuda

    Are you keeping the stock interior? Please tell me you are keeping the stock interior. The modified interior is the thing I dislike the most on the 1:1 versions of this mod. Looks like you have a good platform to start with. Love the stance! I will be following along.
  11. They didn't say how much it cost, but it took 4 years to build.
  12. All the photos in the links you guys provided will be a great help. Thanks so much for those!
  13. Books will be here next week. Found some used ones online.
  14. Thanks for the info. I will be on the lookout for those books.
  15. Anything special i would need to do with resin, I have never used it (have barely worked with styrene). I am hoping my skill level will be a little further along before I attempt this. Guess I need to start getting some historical photos lined up. Are the AAR Cuda and T/A Challenger kits close to what was raced. I had assumed, like was mentioned above, there would be (at the very least) flared wheel openings. Wasn't sure if there were aftermarket racing interiors and chassis' that were produced. I think I am addicted to this site. There are so many knowledgeable people here.
  16. I wouldn't use it to cheat. I have found images of cars and other things through the years and wanted to know what they were. Reverse image search would have come in handy.
  17. It could be worse.... There is a private school by my house. Grades 1-5 is $18k a year and it goes up to $22k per year for high school age children. International students pay an additional $50k for boarding per year. There is a list of things that are and are not included in the tuition fees. They do not nickle and dime the parents, they $50 and $100 them. I believe there is a waiting list to get into the school.
  18. I have seen you guys talking about "Reverse Image Search" and had no idea what it was. Just Googled it. Wish I knew about this years ago.
  19. How many kits are there for cars from the Trans Am Racing Series? How many street cars can be easily converted? Is there a list of aftermarket resources for the conversions. Road racing is one of my favorite forms of auto racing. While I was to young to appreciate Trans Am when it was around, I do love to watch the old video footage. Those guys were always on or over the edge when racing. I have a vision of a long term diorama with a Trans Am starting grid or a group of cars going into a turn. So I am just trying to compile some information so I can be on the lookout for items I will need. 1970 would be my preferred year, as I am a bit partial to the Mopars of that year.
  20. Was in Ollie's today, no new models, but I did find some nice automobile coffee table books though. Do yourself a favor and walk into the book section. I see lots of future builds I would like to do.
