  1. Very nice. Thank You.
  2. What Black did you use for the Dash and Bars on the roll cage ? Black looks really good.
  3. Looks good so far. Id love to be the one getting frisked by the lady cop that pulls them over in the movie ha ha ha ha. Just watched it again on Directv the other day. Great movie. Anxious to see all the kits finished when your finished with all of them.
  4. Don, great product and as always great review. As your well aware I do a great job of bending needle tips with the regular fine needle let alone with this new ultra fine product with the tip completely exposed. So I think Ill stick with what I have for now LOL. Thanks again for the review my friend. Great review as always.
  5. Peanut Butter for me. Im a Peanut Butter and Jelly freek right off the spoon. Peanut Butter is just outrageously expensive.
  6. That is one awesome job my friend. One of the best looking Nascar models Ive seen lately. Super job.
  7. Not so much true because most of the kits I purchase off Evilbay are Nascar 1:24 kits. Ive purchased Nascar kits from California eight at a clip. Shipping charge in a priority flat rate box was a little under $9 for eight kits. Was looking at buying a kit the other night from the same state I live in and the seller was charging $15 for one kit. This happens a lot with at least Nascar models I look at. Im not against paying the actual shipping charges that are necessary to cover the costs but I'm not all about getting raped with the shipping charges either.
  8. Any race car for that matter. I have a few Sprint, Indy, and F1 cars as well.
  9. When it comes to after market parts and photo etched parts for Nascar Model kits, how does one find out what all is readily available ? Is there a site you can goto that lists everything that is available or is it a deal where you just have to know someone that may know what alls avaliable or ???? Im interested in finding out whats all available. Thanks for any info in advance.
  10. Love the idea man. Just signed your petition. Only thing Im hoping is that the chassis is a Rocket ha ha
  11. I was on the Testors website the other week looking over the FAQ surfing for valuable information. I came across this information packet that Testors offered to Customers so I requested this packet, receiving it and looking it over. While surfing through the information I couldnt find the answer to my main question. What really is the difference between the Testors Enamel paint in the 1/4 oz bottle VS the Model Master Enamel paint in the 1/2 oz bottle ? The only thing I can make out of it all to this point is the cost of the bottle ? This possibly coulda been discussed through the past years or so on here but I was not able to find the post while surfing back through the previous pages of posts. Really curious to find the answer to this as I would like to purchase some additional paint again this week. Thanks in advance.
  12. For the future, anytime you get a photo you want to keep, pull the photo up, right click on the photo, click on save image as (make a folder strickly for modeling photos), type your file name you want to save the photo as, into this folder and click on save. Make sure you save it to your desktop or a destination you will remember where its located. Thats my best advice in regards to keeping photos you want to keep ahold of. Hope its a help to you. Should you need any further information on how to do this, message me and Ill be more then happy to help you through it.
  13. Thank you, How bout a 1966 Plymouth Satallite
  14. Steve B, did you get to two drag car kits off evilbay ?
  15. I have been searching (then again my web surfacing abilities are not very consistent in finding what I'm looking for lol), for a bit and cant seem to find the info Im looking for. Does anyone know if any Scale model manufacturer has ever issued a 1951-1953 Plymouth Cranbrook OR a 1955-1959 Dodge Royal Lancer kit ? Id be interested in obtaining each of these kits if they were ever manufactured.
  16. Good stuff man. Taking notes to put in my rolodex for future Nascar builds. Would like to try this format. Nice work all the way around my friend. I really like it.
  17. Its actually not safe for Children. Thats why they just totally reshaped and organized the EZ Bake oven eliminating the lightbulb totally.
  18. A 60 watt bulb used in a childs EZ Bake oven gets up to 350 degrees.
  19. What did you use to build the window net ? Was thinking that some duct tape may work perfectly without knowing what you used.
  20. Nice shop dude. That is gonna be one awesome man cave ha. If I had access to something like that Id probably end up divorced because Id turn that into my mini apartment and be spending 99.5 % of my time there lol. Nice stuff man. Post pics after you have it entirely finished and decorated.
  21. In regards to getting power to my Bilge Blower Motor. Being that it requires 12 VDC & 5 Amps to power the Motor, I got to thinking since our prior talks in regards to how I was going to power this motor. Why couldn't I get a PC Tower Power Supply Unit 24 or 20 pin connector, clip all the wires from the ports. KEEP all the Yellow wires which would be the 12 volt rail wires, KEEP all the Black wires which would be all the negative wires and KEEP the Green wire which would be the switch wire. CUT and ELIMINATE all the other wires. Shrink wrap all the other wires with heat shrink wrap so they cant short anything out. Hook the Green and one ground wire to a switch for the power on/off button. Connect all the Yellow wires together including the yellow from the Bilge motor for the 12 volt rail wires. Connect all the Black ground wires with the black ground wire on the bilge motor. Plug the plug into the back of the PSU and plug it into the wall. Turn the switch on and I should be in business ? Is this possible and don't you think that would work ? It would be on a 12 volt rail. Would have plenty of amps from the PSU as the smallest PC Tower PSU is 15 Amps and depending on the size of the PSU it could run all the way up to 60 Amps. Does this seem like it work work or am I still dreaming lol ?
  22. William: Will either of these work to power this Bilge Motor ? The way I read it and understand how each piece works, I take that they will but want to be sure before I dish anymore useless money out on this stupid thing lol. Should have just got the Squirell Cage Blower Motor. http://www.ebay.com/...984.m1423.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/180571297681?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/110965036064?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
