Good looking Torino!! The color looks spot on, and could pass for a factory option color. Great work so far.

People must hate waiting...

I'll wait. E-pay gets enough of my money..... -
33 and a 3rd % of all monetary winnings in this area. That's alittle steep for our area too. And that's Pre-tax.....

Easy there Bill. I'm still here buddy, and we got that all cleared up last week. Lets not get it started again....

No, you have a pretty accurate BS meter!! I'd say from that listing, your meter was pegged.

Love the color. And i've always liked the Coke bottle body lines of these cars. Beautiful build sir!!!

Organizing spare parts

X2!!! Wow. I would love to find a cabinet like that to restore. I kinda like to restore old furniture as a hobby, and that piece is REALLY nice!!! -
When I was a kid still in grade/ middle school, we were little MONSTERS in class. At least I thought we acted that bad, and the teachers back in the day prob. would have whole heartedly agreed with me, but kids now are expected to learn so much more, and at ever earlier ages, they don't seem to have time to be "kids" anymore. And some of the stories you see and hear about of some of the nasty things kids do now in school is beyond shocking. Looking at it from that perspective, I would myself probably go in another direction for a vocation. Teachers aren't allowed to "teach" anymore like they did back in the day.

Wow!! What did he die from?

OK. You have my apologies on the negative reaction. I'm very proud AND protective of my status as a veteran, and ALL veterans for that matter. Yes, I agree with the public service sector getting the ye olde' screwgie . particularly during an election cycle. I served my time in the Green Machine, and I didn't feel like I was a free loader. I'm not qualified to speak on teaching matters, other than back in the day trying to drive afew of them nuts in class. I served during the first Gulf War. 3rd Inf. Div. Combat Engineers. We can build stuff and blow it up with equal skill.

Maybe, but he needs to clarify. He's a big boy. Lets hear what he has to say. If he is trying to be ironic, its in POOR taste. He can feel free to PM me on this matter if he would care to discuss it further, but I've said my peace.

Don't get you started on the Military??? Mr. Myers, I don't have a knock against teachers, it is (or was) a noble carrier, and a pretty darned important one, but when you start lumping in the military as some kind of free loaders. I take SERIOUS offense to that Sir!!! There is NO teaching job on this planet that I've seen that require you to swear an oath and write the Government a blank check that can at any time be cashed for UP TO, and INCLUDING your LIFE!!! Yes, they get clothing and housing and food, but there is this truth that when one joins the military, YOU ARE GENERAL ISSUE. You are no longer an individual, you are Government property. No longer in control of your individual life. You don't get to call off when you have a bad day, or hit the snooze button and sleep in.You go where ordered, you fight where/when/ how you are ordered and there are no unions or committee's to argue the merits of this or that policy You are there to PRESERVE democracy, not PRACTICE it . The military is required to maintain its "equipment" i.e. troops, tanks, guns, bullets, bombs, ect... Your arguments over teaching matters is your own. I'm sure there's enough bad to balance out the good in your field as well, but as a vet, I don't appreciate being lumped into the "free loader" category. If I remember correctly, your a U.S. Navy veteran, As a vet, you should know better.

I wish i could take credit for that one Casey, but I got skunked too. At least you guys knew where to look at first. I never even got THAT far. LOL

Is it just me ...

There is nothing wrong with tuners that i see. I like some of the Japanese tuners. They look pretty cool. Just about the only car style i can't really find anything to like about is the "Donk". I hope that fad goes away quietly..... I love all the older cars, but i can still appreciate a well build modern one too. -
Never mind. I got a closer look at the pics.

I did see your gasser build. That turned out sweet!! Did you chop the front frame rails and add your own rails? Or did you go with the stock front frame?

AMT 1/25 '64 Chevy Impala
bismarck replied to ANovaScotian's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Depending on what release you get of the revell kit, Its a 2 in 1 . Stock or low rider. The Revell kit is much better than the AMT kit. Opening hood and trunk, separate frame and exhaust. Better parts count. MUCH better detailing. The Revell kit has the benefit of being a newer mold than the AMT 64. The AMT kit is still a good kit, but for finer details, the Revell has it hands down. IMO.
