GLMFAA1

I saw both movies, I am not a movie goer, last seen movie prior to last week= "Top Gun." I enjoyed both movies. Can't believe you Quaker Commonwealther didn't support a movie about your fellow Pittsburgh icon. Suggest you read the original "Esquire" article. greg

Fantastic job, Curiosity has this cat wondering what is on the lowboy back in the distance on some of your shots? Isn't that a grader already? greg

Great as usual.

I have a Dallas cheerleaders van from Revell greg

I will add, Hogan's hero jeep and the monkee mobil.

Went and saw the movie, It was enjoyable, I had a private screening as I was the only person in the theater and being a 'golden ager' and a matinee cost a whole 7 dollars. Recommended must see. greg

I apologize as I was part of the GLMFAA group that at first displayed in the vending area under Herb Jackson and later was given space by John to display. In the club house we had other displayers as group 25, a NASCAR, and a military displayer. Had no idea he charged you I should have known since you charged admission. greg

And Mattel made the toy car

Thank you for the trip down memory lane, Was there any appreciation to John Carlisle for him providing space for the NNL and years ago the GLMFAA club to display during the Toy Fair? Howard keep in touch with the 'buckeyes' greg

Great job, only item is door emblem with side marker, pretty close to real thing. greg

Make sure to check the box as someone in my area is switching the cases to get a lower price. greg

I've been building since I was a kid with two older brothers into models, Always interested in the challenge and enjoyed the challenges. Years ago Chrysler auto workers had a slogan of "I buy what I build". I turned it around to "I build what I buy" just to upset the hoarders and speculators. I have always thought that the sculpture was worth more than the 5lb bag of clay. greg

4000 to 7000 rpm seems a little fast for any metal work greg

It's the Daytona kit, orange cover shot

Niles Ohio Ollie's has: Internationals, Kenworth co, Plated tanker, 72 GTO, 69 Charger, Crown Vic pd car, 48 merc pd car. Also a sharper image dump of rc toys greg

They were for luggage http://gt40.rkmotorscharlotte.com/ good reference pictures and story greg

Last visit to my local HL I asked the clerks, They do know what's on the shelves or where clearance items are located. This store just marked the clearance items, left them on the shelf with the red tags and green line through the regular price. greg

I would also suggest AITM as there is a great variety of cabs, I would be on the look out for the ERTL IH Logger($$$) as the kit is more substantial than the AMT. Not going to be near 1/20 but aren't garden railway (G scale) 1/22.5? greg

Original AMT 1962 Thunderbird. Built by my brother in 1962, had red/white interior, gold underbody, white styrene turned yellow and chrome dissolved through the ages. Rehab project was changed interior to all black (mix of Tamiya flat black and NATO black), repainted frame with Tamiya gold, painted (Airbrushed)body with Tamiya gloss white. Re chromed using Molotaw pens. Antennas are cut straight pins. .

Two of my modeling friends who left too soon, Bill and his father Andy were also into fire truck builds. I had the pleasure of first meeting them at a local hobby shop where I had some fire apparatus on display. Friendship was established that day. They gained a great respect from me due to the extraordinary skills in model building. Many a travels with them to shows and displays, shared meals and warm welcomes to each others home and was great to meet the aunts who replaced Andy's wife and Bill's mother. Pinecrest was a very special and short lived resin source. We exchanged modeling ideas and even one conversation with Bill helped him when he was obtaining his MBA from Notre Dame. Always in memories and always missed. Example of building prowess, Moon township rescue fully equipped. Dave Palmeter and Bill at GLMFAA/NNL meets at the Toledo Toy Fair, unknown date greg

Also made a great police car greg

No, it's not the bus from the 'Graduate' , Running from Ohio to West Virginia. "Son only have one word for you, Plastic (model cars)" greg

What scale is that? greg
