Porsche Outlaws & Hot Rods
Quick GMC replied to afx's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I am surprised nobody has posted the 356 RSR yet. Built by Rod Emery, a friend of mine helped with the assembly and painted the car. He also paints cars for Rod Emery regularly. He has a shop out here by me. -
Not a fan on muscle cars, but Pro Touring and road racing is another story. Up to a certain point, they serve a purpose, after that, it's just for looks. Some people have different definitions of big. Just put new tires on my truck yesterday. 275/45/20. I like the looks of 22" wheels on the truck better, but it's built for handling, so I stuck with 20's. I have a decent size sidewall since I drive it all over, including 700+ round trips, so it has to be practical and not blow a tire on stupid dips. It served it's purpose as a work truck for 10 years, now it's my DD and it's fun. Rear 3 link with coilovers all the way around, front and rear sway bar, upper and lower control arms, built tranny, higher stall converter, 4.11 gear, Posi, intake, headers, tune. etc. Still a long way to go, but I can enjoy it how it is right now. If I was going to spend serious money on a set of forged wheels, I would likely go with 18s and more meat.

Turbochargers and Pro Chargers
Quick GMC replied to tbusch's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
The best turbo chargers, hands down, are the Hobby Design ones. Super crisp detail, no flash. No idea about a Procharger -
Don't bother, they seem to have dropped off the map. Try Splash Paints

postage from the US to the UK
Quick GMC replied to 72 Charger's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I ship to the UK all the time. Last box was 10-12lbs and was under $100. $75 is ridiculous for a small package like that. He either has no idea what he is doing shipping wise, or is trying to take advantage -
Here are a few I noticed were not on the list. Hobby Design: http://www.hobbydesign.com.cn/ Plamoz: https://plamoz.com/t/new C1 Models: http://www.c1-models.com/ USCP - Ukranian Scale Cars Production: http://uscp-ua.com/ EightyOne: http://www.eightyone81.com/

Sorry I left you guys hanging in the PIF thread
Quick GMC replied to Quick GMC's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I appreciate the understanding and patience. -
Jim (DPNM) sent me the kit I claimed in the PIF thread right away, received with no issues. Sorry I didn't acknowledge right away. I posted in the off-topic lounge regarding the other details.

For those of you I left hanging in the Pay It Forward thread, my apologies. I've been dealing with my business, and my dad's business, trying to figure out ways to drum up work while trying to follow our shelter in place order. It's been a little rough to say the least. Anyway, I just wanted to reach out and make an apology, it's not like me to disappear like that, and I definitely don't like leaving people hanging. I reached out to Kennyboy, who claimed my kit. I will be shipping his out tomorrow. I received my kit from Jim right away and should have acknowledged it. I know a lot of you are going through similar troubles. Hope everyone is able to hang in there.

Pictures don't do these justice, the detail is incredibly sharp and clean. -

Just ordered one of each, thank you. -
they can suck it

Odd question, but does anyone know how old he is? I found a few things online, but don't want to post them and start rumors or anything
-
I thought you were dead. Haven't seen you post in ages. Still killing it
-
If they're legit and built well, then that's about the going rate. Looks like my Matco box. I wonder if these are made by one of the bigger companies and rebranded

1964 Chevy Fleetside
Quick GMC replied to Lorne's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
this is the truck I have been looking for, for years. I even made posts on the forums. I saw pics of it a long time ago. Once of my favorite models ever posted. Very nice work. -
Very nicely done.

Who's used Scale Finishes paint?
Quick GMC replied to Dave Toups's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
The enamel sprays better than any other paint I have used. It's been a while since I used it, but it laid down like glass. Unfortunately, I have only used it on one body and I had issues of dust and stuff getting into it, so it got stripped. I attached a couple pics of the 57 Ford I painted with Ford Washington Blue. This has not been clearcoated or touched in any way, this is just the dried enamel -
