Good timing - I just brought this kit home last night.

Doyle, Those glass nail files - I can't find a set with the different grits. The closest so far is a choice between two different grits. Do you mind saying where you got those? Brian

If the interior tub was way short, you probably got one that had the Vickie interior tub. They produced a bunch that way but would send you the correct one - back when.

I used to have to polish the Tempo lenses on a regular basis. Then years later I read that after you polish you need to apply a UV protector. That's why they go cloudy again so fast. The car was long gone by the time I read that so I never have had to do it myself. Might be worth looking into though.

Jeremy, I've seen a couple demos using the gel. Did you try the powder over the black paint? I'm wondering what magic this cured gel has to hold the powder. Brian

Too many great ideas. I saved more than I'll ever get around to.

Very nice looking Charger. So who printed those tires and wheels?

Joe, When you have a chance to see how they work, let us know. That's something I've been wondering about getting but I don't know how they affect colors on the bench, etc. Brian

What are those kits under the table ??? All I can read is Indy 500 Winner but nothing else.

If the headlights are engraved on the inside, the suction cups work. If the engraving is on the outside, they won't hold. I'm ordering one of these Marvy tools from Amazon today. The washable part sounds better than the wax on the other ones - we'll see.

On the Spotlight board from David Dale ? https://board.spotlighthobbies.com/?page=2;md=read;id=351500

That finally explains why they never answered my complaint, The two sheets I ordered from them went into the trash - worst stuff I'd ever had.

Is the AMT / Ertl version a re-box of the ESCI model ? Sorry, I was thinking about the GTO

Tom, It was over a month ago. I did it through their site. Brian

I ordered two sheets directly from BMF. They were both wrinkled when they arrived in the box. No reply from BMF to my asking about them.

I'm liking those hinges. More info please. What are the pins? Just pressed into the back block or held on the other side? Brian

Now where did that missing coil go ???

The dashboard is printed on the Pyro instruction sheet. Lindberg forgot it on their instruction sheet.

I hope you post progress on your Charger. I've got that listed for one of my future projects. Brian

How'd you get plastic rod to make those side pipe turns? Hollow rod? or drilled out end?

Our model group got to meet there for just over 3 years. (4/2010 to 6/2013) They were great hosts and it was a nice setting. Brian

Mark, Just so you're aware - We were at the NHRA museum and compared the Revell 3 window body to a 1:1 stocker on the floor. It looked like the kit had about a 1" or 2" chop. When the kit first came out I think I remember this discussion about it. I want to make a stock looking 3 window and the slight chop isn't going to stop me. If you're not showing it with a 1:1, you can't really tell. Brian

Never know where you'll show up. Brian

Curt, I like the "gas struts" on the rear cover - are they actually holding the cover up by friction or is there something else? Brian
