This is going to be great! Can't wait to see the finished product! I have a Nascar chassis'd project in my future as well... one day.

History of Monogram's Squarebody GM Pickups
JTalmage replied to Fabrux's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
What about the Sneaky Pete, Midnight Cowboy, and other variants that had the flip nose pete front end, and had the tow bed or step side bed? Aren't they loosely related to these original trucks? -
I can't think of anything to say besides.... WOW!!!!!

Yes. I've bought many things from B-N-L. I've probably bought a dozen 9" ford axles, half dozen GM 350/400 turbo trannys, a dozen or so glasspack mufflers, and all sorts of other stuff. Probably the quickest resin shipper out there. There's usually a little flashing from the resin pour, and just basic casting cleanup from the part it was molded from. I really like B-N-L

Beautiful!

Johan? What? Huh? This cannot be real.
JTalmage replied to Sledsel's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
He was supposedly at the Columbus, IN show saturday... however I was in Zanesville, OH at the Y-city show. Last year he was at NNL in Toledo, and at the C.A.R.B's show in Dayton. So we'll see this year if he comes. I'll be at both so I plan to pick up another AMX and some photo etch if there's any left. -
Cannonball Run 2016 "The Aussieball" Official Build Thread
JTalmage replied to TFchronos's topic in Community Builds
That looks great! where did you get the bumper? I've been working on making my own... unsuccessfully. I really need to start working on my Bronco again. -
Stunning!

Okey lives around here, so I always see him at local shows. Plus I know guys that see him weekly. I'll have to see if I can dip in on what he's got before he sells out -

Yeah he comes to a lot of local shows. Sounds like he's got more stuff coming out again which is cool. Wouldn't mind having another '69 AMX to go with my other 2 -

Wow. dude smiles at the end like it's no big deal haha -
I have about 6 of those in the closet. And a few of the cabriolet versions too. Started to chop one, and turn it into this. Haven't decided on engine or anything. Bought a resin body from Altered States of the Cabriolet kit, with a tonneau cover for like a salt flat look. Sitting on Revell 32 rails, 40 ford wheels/tires, Duvall windshield

Are any of you around drag race chassis shops...
JTalmage replied to futurattraction's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
I can contact some of the guys that run these shops (I'm friends with them on facebook) and see if they have any cars with those wheels on them in their shop, and try to stop in and take measurements at some point. Do you require measurements in MM or Inches? -
Tires for Mad Max Interceptor?
JTalmage replied to mopargreg's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I always read that the car had the old style treaded BFG's in the front and the modern tread in the back... or maybe vise versa. I can't exactly remember now. I think that these wheels would look the best on the Interceptor. They're nice and wide and I think they'd fit the body better. The kit wheels/tires suck in too much in the back. -

JTalmage replied to futurattraction's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
There's 2 or 3 in my area in Cincy. ROGUE Racecars and Tin Soldier Racecars off the top of my head. What exactly do you need? -
Wow what a beauty! Looks fantastic! just needs a set of blue laser stripes for that added touch!

First off, this kit was from 1976 and the decals were good! This is a really basic kit 1/24 kit that Monogram put out in the mid seventies that is basically a curbside kit. I really liked it when I bought it it a yardsale and saw that it was complete. So I decided that the little Porsche needed to be built box stock to honor it's yellowed and beaten box with the yellow car on the box art, that it had been in since 1976. I didnt really do anything w/ the interior, I painted it black and added a little detail to the dashboard. I just wanted it to have a nice paint job and good outside detail. Paint is Tamiya yellow and Tamiya clear. Took me about 3 and a half days just a couple hours or so per day to finish it. One thing I regret is using model masters turn signal amber for the rear lights and front bumper lights... and they don't show well on a yellow car. Oh well. I scribed rear trunk lines in it because they were non existent. Let me know what you think. Enjoy.
