but....our hobby is "working with plastic"... a little body work, paint, throw on a set of pegasus wheels and she'll be a beauty.

Phone home I want peace on earth.... We are the CIA, we don't do that sort of thing! Too many secrets.

about a hundred dollars...yeah... mostly harmless space herpes! the blue star a little short for a stormtrooper never tell me the odds! I want my two dollars!

I seem to recall an article that indicated that Nintendo didn't create this "app"

Snakes, why did it have to be snakes?

My two cents... I would consider the real world unit you are "modeling", if the 1:1 units use same size bolts for the side plates and the bearing retainers then that's what I would go with. From a physical aspect, I think larger bolts would be used on the larger piece to distribute the load on the side plate mounting area.

thanks for the ideas.... my brain got a little excited when I saw the photo of the custom white '62 Chevy SW done in "hardtop" style.

wow, trying to get all the other threads off the first page? I have this kit...

"And now, for something we hope you'll REALLY like."

"I pity the fool." "Not in the face, not in the face!" "Meat head"

you left out the "la, la, la,.....la, la, laaaa"

I have to agree with Gerry and David...because they're correct. Ya just never know when the gods of thermal destruction and spark will cross paths when mere mortals let their plug wires rest on exhaust manifolds, but some of us know the inevitable outcome.

last I heard was that he's taking a break... and that was on this forum.

(I think I am seeing some "knee jerking" happening here...) WOOT! first post on page five.

Rob, if I was on faceborg, I would be there...

ahem... but it does appear to have a windshield frame mounted rear view mirror.

hrmmm, I have no nits to pick on the fit/finish, the whole aspect of the model indicates a "street racer" since it has what I interpret to be heater hoses going into the firewall and it seems to have "most" of the requirements for being driven on public roads. I did notice that the areas that aren't primer seem to have the same paint color, which (to me) seems to indicate the builder was depicting a vehicle that was the same color all over but only the outside skin has been worked on for future paint. A well thought out aspect of this build IMHO. The nits I have noticed are: (gonna channel a little Harry P. here), No rear view mirrors visible anywhere, maybe it's laying on the front seat and I just can't see it. Possibly...no alternator mounting bracket. No panhard rod on the rear suspension, the only thing keeping the differential from lateral flexing is how well the rear tires are stuffed into the wheel wells. That's fine for straight lines but eventually a road that isn't straight will be encountered. "Sag" induced on some of the spark plug wires, having had my hands on close to twenty thousand cars while in a "tune up shop" has shown me that just about the only plug wires that sag are melted or burned...which brings up another nit, "smart" hot rodders don't let their plug wires rest on the headers/exhaust manifold unless the like to replace plug wires. All of the above may be attributed to lack of familiarity/knowledge regarding the subject matter. I have noted things on my own early builds that show lack of knowledge but won't be fixing them because it show em the path I have traveled to become the builder I am now.

I can't wait to slam a Bronco and put a continental kit on it. (just kidding)

not to mention the blood sucking "kissing bugs" that seem to have migrated here from south america. if you thought ticks were bad, imagine something six times as large that has just had a full meal of your blood.

sun spots, man... sun spots.
