  1. Charlie: Do you need a load for that rig? I've got some 500lb bombs from the AIrfix P51 Mustang kit.? greg
  2. Maybe your not familiar with the vector light bar. Here is what I did for you. Waiting on PM and snail mail address. greg
  3. Tell you what. Send me a pm with snail mail address and I'll send you a correct Vector light bar from the Crown Vic kit with the green light. more period piece for the age of the kit. greg
  4. Nice 'pony express' greg
  5. On the Fords they were backwards. greg
  6. Interesting when doing research there was a comment that the Land Rover never broke down. They did an upgrade or got another one because pictures vary with license plates and wheels. Only original is the Land Rover, even the Royal Enfield changed. Anyone have a suggestion for the light bar brackets? Has anyone ever made the decals they would like to share? greg
  7. Charlie, 2 guesses: 1: Needed something to put in a cabinet. 2. Hand line in the bucket to reach source while out of bucket ie roof operations. greg
  8. Had original AMT Ghostbuster Caddy in local hobby shop case for display since the kit was released. I usually just bring models to display to help boost sales. Well some 'boosted' the Ecto 1. Thanks to whoever needed the Ecto 1 that bad. Now the hobby shop owner is going to be out money or a kit. ABP: BOLO: 1 AMT 1/25th scale Ghostbusters Ecto 1. Built and detailed. License plate: New York ECTO-1. Distinctive hand painted red rear fins, and tinted glass as original vehicle, Last scene in the Boardman Ohio area, Kit has been sitting for years. No notification of ransom or reward. Notify via PM the below party, No picture available. That is all. greg
  9. I know it not a defender but its as close as I am going to get. The fender flares from the AMT Ford 'Vantom" fit closely to the body. Will be using the wheels in the kit. greg
  10. WOW! Nice build, Not enough tires (Jokingly). Like the load, Not too many M997's in 1/24 scale. I've got one: Revell Jurassic park base, scratch built ambo body. greg
  11. It only cost 1624.87 total. Nice kit but probably well worth the price. For me I'll just happy with my 72 Mack Aerialscope and my FunRise toy aerialscope. greg
  12. The AMT Ahrens Fox never made production. Ertl did not make any 1/25-24th scale fire trucks, They were 1/30nd. The only 1/25th Fox was made by Yat-Ming in die cast. They now make them in 1/43rd scale. greg
  13. Working on a project with this model and directions show dash board decals, The decal set in my kit does not have them. Are they missing or were not included in this kit? greg
  14. Thanks for the pictures, Miss the NNL in Toledo?. Was there anything there that was red and had flashy lights? greg
  15. To the other Greg: He has a shrink ray machine! and minions greg
  16. Good job, nice details, Never liked how the kit hood and body never match up. I'm sure would not take the car if Carvana showed up with this rig. greg
  17. Tables are sold out but available at the show when a 'no show' doesn't. greg
  18. Couldn't resist re posting my model of the Ford concept show car Bronco built on the AMT kit The real thing at Cleveland Auto Show greg
  19. Here is a little tid bit on detailing the emergency equipment in the interiors: greg
  20. Forgot to add the West coast cousin: greg
  21. Here is my research: It works greg
  22. I had work partners that one told me Philadelphia was a state and another spelled it starting with an 'F'. Last few years I worked, my partners would ask me what the town was like when I grew up. greg
  23. I'll give it a try since I have a pen that has turned black from silver, Have no idea what happened. If it doesn't work you can reverse the tip in the pen. greg
  24. Nice project. looks like it would climb a tree! greg
  25. This topic took me on a hunt of what I have built as gifts, sold, and commissioned works and have count build of 46. They range from cars, trucks, boats and planes. I get asked all the time how much time I have in a project, I don't consider it work so I don't clock the hours. Many a project would be considered 'lost leaders' costing more to manufacture as to the price. I have always had the opinion anyone can buy a box of clay but to turn it into a Picasso art piece is where the talent is priceless. I have no arguments regarding getting monetary value from your hobby, Is there a difference between professional builder and hobbyist? Just remember most artists' works become valuable after the artist has left the good earth. greg
