    30 A-Bone

    WOW!!! Now THAT is how a classic A bone should look!! beautiful build sir.
  2. Yep. Call the police or alert SOMEONE to what's going on. They wouldn't do this if he/ she were of sound mind and body, it's pretty low to take advantage when that person can't prevent it.
  3. Always has been one of my favorites. Good start!!! I love the lines of that aircraft. One of these aircraft disappeared without a trace searching for flight 19 on the same day.
  4. I think they changed the name to Spotlight Hobbies. FAST shipping, good service, and not a bad selection either. I've purchased several kits there, haven't found anything bad to say.
  5. It could be the crank position sensor.(?) It's a smallish gadget bolted to the back side of the bell housing on the drivers side. It uses a plug so you'll need a set of pliers to get it apart, and about every drive extension and gooseneck extension you own. It's best to jack up the drivers side front and reach it from underneath. If that sensor goes, it's about like the older Plymouths ballast resistors, when it goes, it kills EVERYTHING. Simple part, simple fix, huge PITA when it goes bad.... The crank sensor used to run about $50 or so. If you have a garage do it, they'll prob tell you they need to pull the tranny. Hope this helps.
  6. Sharp looking builds Jim!! Love the '48 Chevy.
  7. Good lookin rig Brian.
  8. Same here Troy!! Loved the '32. I'd like to give a shout out to Stockboresme for a great trade as well. Both great guys to trade with!! EDIT: StockBoresMe has stung some of the member on this board and some of my friends too, so until he proves himself otherwise, trade with him AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
  9. I just bought this kit. I hope it turns out looking as good as this one. Sharp build!!
  10. There was a video posted some time back of a weather reporter getting CLOCKED by a flying road sign in mid broadcast. I think it was some time during last years storm season.
  11. I grew up in the early/mid '80's being schlepped around in a Mazda V2000 Sundowner, which is basically the same truck. It had a 4 cylinder 5 speed, manual everything, but that truck was almost bullet proof. Dad always took good care of it, and had it without any major problems for 17 years.
  12. ???? Not enough O's in SMOOOOOOTH. Love it.
  13. Testers Model Master Intermediate Blue would tie the colors together pretty well. It's a military color used on early/ mid war U.S. navy aircraft. It's a blue-ish gray color, and it's a semi gloss so it can be toned down to not look too shiny. Great start to a good kit. ?
  14. I spent many a long car ride as a kid listening to Glen's music. I used to look forward to those trips in later years just for the music. Rest in peace Friend, you earned it.
  15. Just finished a trade with Xingu, aka Michael Hill. Great guy to trade with!!! Thanks again Mike!!
  16. Sharp looking Camaro!! One of my favorite kits as well.?
  17. Nice looking rig!! The missing parts are just character marks.?
  18. Same here Bill!! Hope you get to feeling better. Wife snagged the box first, so I have to wait till she gets home to see the dart.? I figured you were busy and would get to it when you could. Thank you for the trade.
  19. I wish I had thought of that too JC. Your swap looks ALOT better than the trumpy supplied chassis. You have my attention. More please!!?
  20. Similar thing happened to my in-laws. She had a post cancer screening and showed up early. She waited for 2 hours before they even remembered she was there!! This after signing in!! The next week she had a follow up with the same Doctor. She was 15 minutes late due to traffic, but the office cancelled her appointment and would not reschedule..... My father in law raised unholy hadies with the receptionist about that one, but it seems they can do anything they want.
  21. I saw that article too. I saw a few '68 Road Runners in that batch that looked pretty solid.
  22. God speed Harry. You will be missed. Fair winds and following seas.
  23. That's a dam shame!!! I've been looking for that very body to build a copy of a 1:1 wagon my dad owned years ago. But I WON'T buy stolen and/or pirated knock offs.
