  1. I made the best of the Palmer 70 Mustang. Those kits are just awful.
  2. Amazing.
  3. Sweet stang. You may want to cut the decal with a sharp exacts knife at the door edges.
  4. There were some great models and GT40's there (models and full size). I brought one of my older builds (the black #2 Testors pictured above) from the 1990's. The accuracy is 5 out of 10 but I think it gets noticed because it has an engine and none of the Fujumi kits do. See everyone next month at NNL East.
  5. I picked up this 65 fastback promo at the Philly show. It has been painted and has some cracks at the top of the roof pillars. I really like the interior and kits of these sell for crazy money. Should I repaint it and build it just like I would as a kit? I only paid $15 for it.
  6. How often do you get to do this. My Mark IV on the real thing.

    Ford gt 40

    Was it at the Philly show? I thought for sure I took a picture of it.
  8. Thanks Gary.
  9. Thanks. Here is a pic of the real one.
  10. Are you sure?
  11. I wanted to get his done by Friday to take to the show. With a day to spare I think it is presentable enough. I may redo some of the decals and touch up some smudges later but for now I think it turned out okay for a kit that will try anyone's patience. The decals are Fred Cady. I was hoping to finish the yellow #8 Mark II but it will have to wait until next year.
  12. I remember building one years ago. The white has dulled over the years so it is nice to see a fresh build. Great job on both.
  13. Cobra in a bottle. Cobra burned to the ground. Cobra limo. Cobra 4x4. Cobra in outer space. Cobra with a V10. Cobra pained mystic color. Unicorn Cobra. Lynn Park collection. The possibilities are endless.
  14. That engine compartment could use a lot of detailing.
  15. Here is recent abbreviated price list from last May. I have known Norm for 30 years. He is an old school guy (no website) and I'm guessing he is about 70 years old. Give him a call if there are issues with the accuracy of any of his products. I would venture to say 99% of his customers are very satisified.
  16. Ebay can be hit or miss with some sellers. I seem to get the fastest responses from selling with misleading or just plain wrong descriptions of an item. They usually reply within hours. Most sellers I have dealt with will update the tracking info within a day or two. Once you get the item you can always leave some meh ratings on their communication.
  17. My 1/43 collection. Two are resin kits.
  18. Excellent low cost conversion. I sure wish someone did a plastic race version.
  19. Crash here tonight from 2006.
  20. Always buy the real thing. The price difference is not even an issue but the crappy quality of knock-offs is.
  21. That seems pretty cheap.
  22. There is a Toby Keith video (maybe ten years ago) and she (Heather) looked pretty hot in it. Very few women can stay hot nearing sixty or older. Brooke Shields, Deborah Delaney and Christie Brinkley come to mind as exceptions.
  23. Amen to that. I am glad I bought this one when it came out and got Pete to sign it. I think it was at SAAC 25.
  24. That car (a McClusky) is owned by my neighbor Charlie S. He occasionally drives to a Cars & Coffee and I got to ride in on the pace lap @ Summt Point. Pics are on another computer but he also owns this SAfir GT40 that I got to take for a spin. The 2nd GT40 is owned by another gentleman Howard. He built it himself.
