  1. I have a car themed room. i call it "My Garage!"
  2. Steve Magnante is a former Editor for Hot Rod Magazine and a few other rags. He was one of the guys to bring back vintage style cars and models to Hot Rod. He actually did a write up about building models straight out the box, like a kid used to or like someone who can not use paints in a Hotel Room while on the road. I've met Steve and he came across to me as a genuine guy. At least easier to talk to than the other "Car Show" types out there. Anyway, I think his build is pretty cool. I would have totally done that as a kid!
  3. This is the built up Tamiya brought to the IPMS show here in June. They did some nice upgrades to their G Nose Z
  4. They could do a Snap kit for the S&H car. It would be more cost effective in the long run. Maybe they are trying to snag the General Lee crown for the most kits sold with a Torino
  5. Wow! That decals sheet is way better! I need to get one just for the decals. Since I have a few of the old ones still Old pic, btw
  6. You are correct, Sir. The wagon is a solid axle car. My friend stuck a Ford 8.8 rear end in his. So, one can mod as needed, and there are a few wagons that have the IRS conversion on them. It is pretty wild to see a wagon with tons of negative camber!
  7. Go nuts! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/drag-cars-in-motion-picture-thread.228509/
  8. I want to convert the Hasegawa 4 door into a Wagon. Yes, there is a market for them. My friend John wants one to replicate his wagon
  9. The Snake and Mongoose Front Engine Hot Wheels Dragsters. Such lack of detail and poor execution of assembly layout. For years, these where on my Holy Grail list, and to finally get them and really look at them was rather dissapointing. Too bad.
  10. Amazing detail and work, very nice indeed!
  11. Very nice and clean. I like the body stance on it!
  12. Nice start! I need to build me another one!
  13. AA/FA 285 is correct for this one!
  14. I just politely tell them that I only build for myself and that I barely even do that!
  15. One of my all time favorite kits! Nice job!
  16. Finally! A proper looking Baja Bug! Nice
  17. And don't forget the Ivo Liner as well
  18. Yes, they are! So get those plain white T's ready!
  19. Why is there a panic over a Swastika on a model kit? How about the Confederate Flag on the General Lee? Let the mayhem begin! And the Palm and Swastika was the logo of the Africa Korps and thus historically accurate
  20. Nice job on one of my all time favorite kits! I have at least three in my stash!
  21. Great job on a terrible kit! I like the sleeper look. This is one kit that should be re-done by Revell. Maybe a big window option would be nice.
  22. I wish folks where more honest about what they say instead of just posting atta boy remarks. Some modelers, including myself, are not that great at certain things and pointing it out and giving advice usually will motivate someone to do better. If you give up or get all upset due to criticism, maybe you should not be posting pictures or showing your models in public venues. And if someone is honest, most folks will attack the person for not being nice. Best bet, just look and move on.
  23. The real Rommel's Rod. Not even close
