  1. Sentence received by Johnny was a trip to Remedial Language Arts.
  2. With the rich and powerful, always a little patience.
  3. Finally found a '64 Chevelle wagon that wasn't a bank-breaker; needs a lot of help on the glue splotches but very savable: Hood is from a '65 (anyone have a spare '64 from the new Craftsman kit?), and I already got a firewall from another eBay seller. Toughest part will be the stock taillights; will probably have to pay through the nose for those unless I scratchbuild them, or I find a '64 El Camino that has a set I can cast. Probably will do a folded back seat if I don't have one in the parts pile. By the way, has anyone else here managed to make an opening tailgate on one of these '64/'65 wagons?
  4. It's still there, but they had to drop California, Texas and Florida. I found an earlier version of the site on archive.org that still had the CA blanks, but the personalization no longer works. The other states are OK, so if you want to do this car, you're set:
  5. Nice! Appears to only go back to late '80s in CA unfortunately, but it works for my old Starion:
  6. Hi, I was checking out the kits on eBay and I'm very impressed - really want several of them especially the Aero Willys. Has the problem with the bodies curling up been solved?
  7. Looks like first-gen Camaro or Firebird.
  8. Especially tough when the door handle has an indentation underneath it that has to come out smooth (early '60s Ford products).
  9. "So" - a needle pulling thread...
  10. For $800, I'd be sorely tempted to get a 1/32 P-51 and modify it myself.
  11. Couldn't find them on slowlys but did find them in 1/24 in Nahuel Customs: Unfortunately this is just a file and I don't own a 3D printer. And is it possible to double the size of this file, scaling it up to 1/12?
  12. I recently picked up a 1/12 scale Monogram '57 Chevy kit at an estate sale; I don't usually build anything that big but for $10 I couldn't say no. I'd like to make it a mild custom with the usual tricks; like a set of '57/58 Dodge Royal Lancer wheelcovers. Are any 3D folks making these?
  13. Woah. Big surprise here! Hope we can get stock height front suspension and the side window opening corrected (two issues the '65 has). Looking forward to doing the A/B comparison to the AMT Craftsman.
  14. My favorite role she played was as Bubba Higgins' teacher on the Carol Burnett Show:
  15. '72 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 4.5 '65-on Rolls Royce Silver Shadow/Bentley T-Series Ford Consul Capri Vauxhall PA Cresta
  16. And here's a '33 Buick I found years ago on the H.A.M.B.:
  17. Coincidentally, fellow LMMC Model Car Club member Glenn Bliznick recently posted this fine '28 Lincoln tow truck he built on the club's FB page: Now I want to scrounge up a Jo-Han '31 Caddy and do something like it.
  18. Incredible Shrinking Headshrinker
  19. Children of the Corn is tonight's Late Movie, brought to you by Green Giant.
  20. Den was one of the characters in Heavy Metal and was voiced by John Candy.
  21. I got a message this morning from W Humble saying that he'd fallen and broken his ankle, and asking for a small favor - but nothing else. Anyone know more? Scam?
  22. Does Round2 still have the molds for the ramps?
