  1. Updating old Ford box ambulance that was damaged from house fire. Using a home made rear box that was a mistakenly made when making another box for another model. Somewhat shaped like old Braun body. greg
  2. A AMT Mack Cruiseliner into a day cab. Original AMT release built many years ago. Was going to be the base for a fictitious upgrade of the FDNY Super Pumper. greg
  3. While we digress, May I offer the Alan Parsons Project. Alan Parson produced the Dark Side of the Moon album with Pink Floyd. ALAN PARSONS - THE TIME MACHINE - FULL SOLO ALBUM - YouTube. This album version was only released in Japan as it has the Alan Parson excerpt from Austin Powers. greg
  4. When I send packages to other members I get a receipt from the Post Office, scan it and then enclose it in a PM to the receiver to let them know when to expect their surprise. greg

  9. WDVE originally KQV-FM where I used to listen at night to the floyd greg
  10. On Friday saw several convoys of utility trucks heading East on the interstate, Henri preparation. Today (Tuesday) observed utility trucks heading back West. greg
  11. Had the opportunity way back as a student at Kent State to go on stage with the Floyd before their concert to announce the safety/fire exit notice before the concert. Naïve 22 year old kid who could care less who Floyd was. Played my brothers Dark side of the Moon till the other side played after that. greg
  12. Great job, What no stars? hope you are sage and sound, keep that model away from Henri? greg
  13. Once again Show is Saturday October 9,2021 WHERE: Sylvania Exhibition center at Tam-O-Shanter: 7060 Sylvania Ave. Sylvania OH TIME: 9am to 1pm greg
  14. Nice job on the rig. One question, I see holes in the A pillar that might be for wind deflectors. Are they in the kit? greg
  15. Great movie: 'Gort Klaatu barada nikto' If I am not mistaken the saucer lands where now stands the Marine memorial. The score by Bernard Hermann was the first use of Theremins in a score'. greg
  16. How about using AMT Mack front axle which might be shorter.
  17. At Home Depot, 62 'shoe box' cowl hood, mags, and bucket seats custom greg
  18. I start with 'banker' boxes, and foam board. Cut the foam board to fit in the box and then place models to fit on the board. Using strips of foam board and hot glue gun I secure the models in a trough of strips so they don't move. A piece L shape around each tire will secure the model. Leave space between models and place the board in the box then put the models in the space you made, You can label each space for the model. I have a balsa wood frame that makes a second shelf and can get more models in a box. I transported many a fire model with this method. greg
  19. Looks good, I did mine many years ago just using 2 MPC pickups and AMT Chevy van camper window option pieces. That's why I have a large 'b' pillar.
  20. Forgot this site for parts: http://www.policecarmodels.com/124spotlights.html greg
  21. Both the Crown vic and Johan police cars have them. greg
  22. The light bar looks 'shop' built. The Scout bar has a mechanical siren, the bronco looks electronic speaker. If you can find the old JoHan parts the 'tin cans' are there and the mechanical siren. The electronic siren can be had from the 70 ford police car. The Baja bronco might have the right tires. Your gold letter might be in some railroad decals. greg
  23. It doesn't like Tamiya clear red over it in taillights. It just turns silver and losses the chrome greg
  24. Isn't interesting that this an 'Adult Collectable' as shown on the front. Well professor set the way back machine to the great state of Virginia that banned toys with cigarette or alcohol references in the 70's. All the Virginnie modelers had no NASCAR or AMT Beer truck kits. I guess the label makes it acceptable and ID's will be checked! greg
