Tryin' Too hard ?

That is Pete Chapouris of So Cal Speed Shop in the green T. He has no taste at all! Darn Shame! -

I hope Leonard Hatch bought it just for parts! And even then he paid too much! -

That is just flat out horrible. And no, I am not sorry for saying that. -
Got an ebay score today! It is a partial glue bomb, but, I can rebuild it! Plus the box is cool

AMT M&H Racemaster Dragster Slicks & Parts Pack Tires
Daddyfink replied to Gregg's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
$13.99 is not bad. For the price of one kit, you can get two sets of wheels instead of one. I'm ok with that. -
Well, I assumed it was ok after seeing non-model related items posted. Sorry if I offended anyone, it was not my intent.

I don't buy everything that comes out anymore. Not because I am cheap, its because I probably already have it. Yes, I have more than I will ever build, but I am going to try! But that has not stopped me from buying more. That is part of the fun of being in this hobby. The excitement and anticipation of a new kit in your hands! Sure, we may put it away and never build it, but hopefully, somebody will someday. After all, somebody bought all my vintage kits for the first time, right? Bring on the 2014 kits!

The Crosley is for the Batto Trucking Dragster/Coupe and the Fiat is for the Mob Fuel Altered Now, where do I start?

Wow! All this over a kit that is not even out! Nice!! -
Very nice! And kudos for building a vintage mint kit!

Coming soon to a theater near you.

I think the problem here is budget. It is a low buck production from what I have seen . Most of the cars in the movie are straight out of collections and museums and from what I can see, not many regular type racers around. You know, like the stuff you really see at the drags! Even More American Graffiti had regular filler cars in the track racing scenes. A big budget movie should be done about someone like Jungle Jim, The Surfers and Garlits. Like when Garlits first came out to the West Coast and had his butt handed to him and how he learned from it. We can hope that they do not give up on it. -
Revell 1957 Ford "Fireball" Roberts
Daddyfink replied to Erik Smith's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Thanks for the review! Not really into NASCAR kits, but this one is cool! BTW, someone on Spotlight asked about this kit and I posted about the review here. The posting disappeared. Does this board now sell kits? -

That Snake & Mongoose movie looks like an after school special! Horrible! Rush looks pretty worthy! What a shame -

Model car signed by.......
Daddyfink replied to slammedi'am's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I think it is pretty cool to have some items autographed for keepsakes. I have a few boxes signed but only one car, it is the Tamiya Jagermeister BMW kit that I had Mr. Tamiya sign for me at Tamiya Con a few years ago. It was the first time anyone had asked him to sign a model! Pretty cool of Ken Block to sign it for you. Not to hi jack your thread, but, who else has autographed kit boxes or kits? -
Glad the site is back up! Getting pretty tired of the same old stuff on Stoplight!
-
Wow, a surf band from Colorado! Its like saying, my favorite polka band from Japan! LOL!
-
That is the same car, Scott, just without the body. It was built by Noel Black and it was never intended to be a dragster, but that is where they tested it. I think it hit 300+ when it killed him.

Cool project! Reminds me of a story Cole Coonce wrote in Super Stock about a Front Engine Dragster with dual rear wheels that John Force and a few other guys where scheming up. There was a crude drawing of it on a napkin and a very funny story! I think it was all make beliveve, but it made for good reading! Can't wait to see it done!
