Maybe I can get one or two to haul my massive ego around.?

Excellent model! The color choice looks good on the Camaro!

My mother very nearly died from the same, exact thing back in July.

I recieved my first paycheck from my new job today. It feels so good to be working again!

Can't wait! There are almost endless possibilities for loads!

Currently working on the body. Something went wrong when test fitting the body to the chassis. It won't fit at all. So, something is misaligned. Good thing I glued everything with superglue.

Starting to make good progress, now. Working on the body gluing on all of the bits and pieces.

Spent today getting the interior finished up. Far from perfect, but I'm happy with it. Also got the engine compartment finished. In the next day or so, I'll be working on the chassis and suspension. Thanks for looking.

After being off work for four months to take care of my mother, I can happily say she is in good enough health to start working again. I start my new job on Tuesday.

I'm somewhat reluctant to post a wip since my time is very limited to work on models. However, I recently cleaned out my shed and came across this model I had completely forgotten I had. It was hidden in the back of the stash and the box was crushed pretty bad. I quite like the looks of this car, so I brought it in and looked it over. The body had a nice, deep crack in the left rear quarter panel. There was also a crack just below the left tail lights. So, I carefully glued it back together and ran some sprue glue into the crack and let it set for a couple of days. I guess over time, the plastic became brittle because three, smaller cracks formed around the A pillars. Easily fixed, though. Several rounds of putty, sanding, primer and paint, I have this. I'm going for a nice, clean street(ish) version.Primary color is Scale Finishes Nissan Titanium Metallic with some red thrown in here and there. Black interior with red trim and red roll cage. I just laid down the first coat of X-22 and I'll let that sit for a couple of days. Enough babbling. Here are some pics. Let me know what you think. I hope to share more with you guys in the following days. It may be a slow work in progress, though, as I start my new job next Tuesday. I really want to try and finish this one and it is my hope that this WIP will help me see through it. Thank you for reading my incredibly long post.?

I have been getting emails from "paypal" saying that my account has been suspended.

last ones, I promise.

I discovered this guy on youtube a couple of weeks ago. He does metal covers of popular hit songs. He also plays every single instrument and produces the videos. A very talented guy. I believe he lives in Norway. I love his videos as he injects a little humor into them.

Midway. The new movie. Just terrible acting all over. Although Woody Harrelson was actually pretty good in his role as admiral Nimitz.

That would make one seriously awesome off road vehicle!

That first pic, it would make for one mean street car!

Drag races cancelled yet again because of rain. I've done missed four out of five races because of weather. Praying for everyone in Louisiana. The hurricane is tracking just east of where the last one came through. I think it was 15 miles to the east or so. It doesn't look good.

My new air compressor came today. My old one started to make funny noises, so I decided to treat myself to a new one. So far, I'm loving it!

Is this on Netflix? I couldn't find it anywhere.

Being a fan of horror movies, I most definitely will give this a watch. Thanks for the heads up!

I didn't know it was canceled. That's a bummer. I actually quite liked the show.

There are a couple of shows I have gotten into. Designated Survivor is actually pretty good. The HUD director unexpectedly becomes president after the government is wiped out in an attack during the S.O.T.U. address. It touches upon a lot of political topics of today. Currently waiting for season three. The 100. The earth is ravaged by nuclear war and humanity is on the brink of annihilation. They send a group of kids down to earth to see if it is habitable again after 97 years of being in space onboard an ark made of stations of different nations. Challenger: the final flight. This was emotional at times. A documentary about the rise of the shuttle program, the seven astronauts and their stories, and the ultimate demise of the Challenger. It goes into detail about the investigation. Very well done and I highly recommend it.

Have you ever felt abandoned? I don't really consider myself a real chatty guy. But, I talk with friends on facebook and messenger. This past month, though, it feels like everyone just kinda turned me off. I can't even get people to text me back. I haven't done anything wrong that I know of. I try to go out of my way to be friendly. Not really sure what's going on. I understand that my friends have lives and such and they may not be able to talk every day. It's just a little irritating that I can't even get one simple reply back to see how they are doing. Kinda makes me feel like I really have done or said something wrong. I just can't figure out what. Anywho, I can't force people to talk to me. If they choose to not talk to me, I understand and it's their choice.

Wonderful! My stepdad drove an old International 9200i that was converted into a day cab very much like your model. Your model captures that look perfectly!

Not exactly obscure, but not really mainstream, either. These guys are incredible. I recently found this song and honestly, I haven't stopped listening to it for almost two days.
