  1. Had a great time met up with 4 forum members Good to meet you guys. I managed a 2nd & 3rd place myself. My grandson managed a 3rd place in Juniors in 12 & under , The wife pulled a third place trophy as well. If you haven't seen Bill & Coreys work in person, you are certainly missing out. true eye candy! Thanks to Todd & the KAMS Model club for the show! We had a blast.
  2. Ah 34... I need to read closer. Old eyes
  3. That would be a cool build, GO FOR IT!
  4. I have, On the show "Happy days" on the intro of the show it shows "Ralph Malph" Potsie & Richie pulling up in a Yellow hot rod pick up similar to what you have drawn. here is a link to it. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/photos/ralphsroadster.html
  5. Same effect when I clear coat or Metalizer sealer. A Buddy of mine has the same issue as well . Now, I spray it polish it & go on. Alclad Polished aluminum is a good product but dulls slightly over time. I'll stick to testors with a hand rub & leave it at that re polish as needed. Otherwise I will go back to Floquil Bright silver if I have to clear coat metalizers not much difference.
  6. You put a lot of work into that Ford. Very Cool. Is that a cam shaft or a chain for a front bumper?
