Hi folks,
We had to say goodbye to our beloved little dog Otis on Monday. He was an amazing companion for 14 years. He spent week days at work with my wife at her seniors facilities. He was enjoyed by staff and residents, he loved people, and we liked to joke he was a “dog with a job”. So many great memories over the years. He loved rainy winter days when he and I would hunker down in the hobby room. He “helped” me with about 25 (or more) of my builds. His calm energy was always present. I miss him dearly, especially the greeting when entering the house. He passed peacefully at our house, in his favourite spot, and had some tenderloin steak for his last meal.
RIP little buddy, we miss you.His official work photo..

Poker face… his auntie was a bad influence…
Steve, sorry to hear of Otis' passing. They never are with us long enough. My thoughts are with you and your family.

I saw this car at the 2024 goodguys heartland nationals. I think I googled at it for about 10 minutes, didn't get to talk to the owner because he was probably getting a corn dog. I have no idea how this was possible but there's definitely a lot of craftsmanship put into it. If you notice the 4 door side has an extra pice of trim on it as well. What do you guys think of this car, funny, practical, ridiculous?
Not for me ,thanks

Hi Guys, I thought I'd share that Diesel earned his Master gamblers title a while ago but it took a while for me to post it. Here is a pic of him with his title when it came in the mail. I am really proud of our boy. He is amazing and very responsive on the course. He really loves the game.

Hi Guys, here are some recent pics of our guys. The first is a pic of the 3 boys. The second is a pic of Diesel and his advanced agility title, and the third is Bandit's puppy agility certificate. He loves the classes so much he doesn't want to leave when it's time to go home!

This scale problem isn't just in styrene kits, I ordered some 3D printed bodies and one of them was 1/28th scale at best, suppose to be 1/25 . As for putting a 1/24 scale engine in a 1/25 scale car, not for me. I think it makes a small block look like a big block. But I'm kind of fussy that way. Just my 2 cents worth.

I want to know if AMT is going to rerelease this kit. I know it can be purchased on evilbay.
Thanks,

Does anyone know if the '66 Merc will be rereleased by AMT any time soon? I would like to build a '66 Meteor from one.
Thanks,
Jerry

To be honest, I've had some health issues so I can no longer build models, (tempory) so I'm posting old pictures from my files, just to stay in touch with the modelling community.
I hope to be able to get back the use of my hands because I love modelling!
And I've done so much work to my "Chopped '64 Merc, who knows how it'll turn out", that I really want to finish that one!
Hi Dennis, I hope the health issues don't last long and your back building soon.

I just took my rescue dog to the vet yesterday to see what can be done about his compulsive licking. Didn't used to be this bad. He licks the carpet, bedspread, my pants, the other dog...... Vet suggested a Thundershirt or an Adaptil collar that releases some kind of pleasant aroma that is supposed to calm him.
We started with a little sweatshirt that keeps him warm and I have the collar on order. There's always the pills (forget the name) they can take but neither the vet or I are keen on altering their personality.
Hi Toni, we have a dog with similar issues. Whiskey is afraid of a lot of things also , we have tried the calming spray and it does help him some, we spray it on his collar. Our guy seems to go though phases , for instance, we practice in a barn for agility and just after Christmas he noticed the overhead fand and lights and shut down. He would only do one jump at a time. Since then he has gotten better and it doing his usual following the coarse we ask him to do . Whiskey is also a compulsive licker as you describe. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, I should have asked if your dog has fear issues?
I hope this helps.

A little late but a couple of weeks ago we took our dogs to an agility trial. It was Bandit's first trip out of town and he did great! He is a very good traveler, very quiet and he seems to enjoy going places. Here is a pic of him and Diesel ,his older brother, in the motel room. On our last trip Diesel earned his advanced agility games title! It was his last Q he needed in snooker to complete the title. He also got a Q in Steeplechase which he hadn't done before. Whiskey got a Q also. He was nervous but he powered though. He a nervous guy, but he seems to enjoy the game. I am very proud of our boys.

Looks great Ken. There aren't many of these built as the hot rod. I did one a number of years ago. Loving yours. What material are you using for the door panels?

Hi Guys, Bandit had his first puppy agility class yesterday. Here he is figuring out how to get the treats out of the puzzle toy!
TJ...I remember that look well, our Sugar Rae use to give me that look all the time! As for size , how big are we talking here. Bandit is 31 lbs. at 5 months but size is relative. We use to have a 140 lb. Great Pyrenees next door and it forever changed my view of what I now consider to be a big dog . He looks very sweet.
Thanks for sharing guys.

Looking great so far, I will be following this one for sure. Thanks for the education, I was under the impression that the vent windows last year was '68 ,but after some research, I discovered, the post cars had them in '69. I had a '69 Chevelle, but mine was a hardtop 300. It did not have the vent windows. Very cool subject! Keep up the good work Dave.
