    (Snake is probably wondering where I am!) This one has always been a favorite of mine: The Convair XB-46. Beautifully simple, graceful lines, but an also-ran in real life, outperformed by the B-45 Tornado (which had its own batch of problems) and the way-more-successful B-47.

    There is a definite family resemblance: Fordson High yearbook, 1969. Meanwhile, four years earlier at Ann Arbor High: Junior looks so innocent??

    Nice NOS '64 Continental grille arrived today: Looking forward to dotting in all those teeny tiny squares!

    Great scores indeed, Josh! A couple things: For some reason, AMT put full-size promo tires in the '63 Nova Craftsman kit instead of the compact promo tires - thus the poor fit on the wheels. Not too hard to find the correct ones. Next, on the Tempest, I did a sort-of-tutorial on making the door window frames more accurate: Hope this helps - good luck!

    Just checked the site - they have silver, chrome, copper, red, and white for $3.49 each in stock; black is back-ordered. https://modelexpo-online.com/search.asp?keyword=tape&sortby=0&page=5&catid=

    Maybe the act of aerating the Molotow through the airbrush makes it dry more thoroughly?

    In the words of Ringo Starr, "Oh My My"... so the early Vega tooling still exists? Wonder if they have enough to squeeze out a stock version, one you could stuff a 350 in to cruise Van Nuys Boulevard?

    One Thank You, and two Danke Schoens!

    This won't help the OP, but if it helps anyone else, this is a near-perfect match for the factory Sierra Gold on my wagon: I used it to touch up a few areas in the wheel openings and where I had to clean up flash around the taillights.

    Fotki has had some issues lately for me. Usually I can right-click the image to open it in a new tab, and I get some sort of privacy error that says go to the site (unsafe); I click on that and the picture shows up. I go back to the forum page, refresh it, and usually the pictures open and I'm good to go. (I'm still running XP so a lot of things don't work anymore, such as Kinja photos and comments on Jalopnik, and now my Flickr login.)

    Clean build of a graceful car. Well done, David!

    Thanks everyone! Much appreciated. Now back to the '65 Nova...

    About 20 years ago I used to have a light biue '67 Mustang fastback radio promo in very good shape (radio worked); picked it up at a flea market for $10 and sold it for $50 when I needed the money. Still have '64 and '67 T-bird radios.

    AMT's still cautious since My Mother the Car and The Hero tanked after one season

    No ants, but I found an inchworm inside my Buick yesterday

    John, did he say what year Dodge coupe it was? I can imagine some model builders salivating over the idea.
