A difference between 4 door and four seater, like the big long door. would be funny to see the driver profile in the middle of the glass greg

I stand corrected about the parts, I missed the other pictures, but the box cover does mention chrome and brass plated parts greg

Sad to see 'what you see is what you get' The darn thing is missing a lot of parts esp the brass plated tree, hood, lots of stock parts I guess the box might be worth it. greg

How else do you get your initials on a car. greg

A little trouble for a big load: Been driving past this predicament since last Thursday It's transferred the northbound traffic to the southbound lane and closed a cross street. Somebody is losing some big bucks with this rescue. greg

Bought the Tamiya paint rack at a closing hobby shop and got about 200 bottles of paints greg

Information for a regional hobbyists around Youngstown Ohio. Amer's hobby shop in Boardman Ohio will be closing the doors next week. There has been a going out of business sale since last week greg

Adding to my border patrol collection, modified the Revell kit by filling in the sun roof, eliminated the dimples in the roof, In the interior used the old crown vic center console on top of the center console and the used the console lid and the keyboard from the crown vic console to make a stand alone lap top, Experimented with the blue light bar. Bill Bozo decals, had to trim up some of the green strip to fit http://images42.fotki.com/v1622/photos/8/3457628/13265735/P1040076-vi.jpg http://images15.fotki.com/v235/photos/8/3457628/13265735/P1040074-vi.jpg Most difficulty was the red plastic and white paint, Thank goodness for white Tamiya putty. Used WalMart spray cans, gray primer for body work, flat white as a primer, gloss white base as a sealer, then falt white and finished with gloss white. Sorry, could not load photos into the thread greg

Peter, I was there Thursday and saw a peel scale modeler and by coincidence we stopped at a hobby shop in the suburbs of Columbus and ran into two Canadians in the shop that were there for the convention, I have posted a link to my Fotki site under the thread regarding IPMS Columbus I would highly suggest if the IPMS convention is ever near you it would be well worth the investment. greg

Here is link to Fotki album http://public.fotki.com/GLMFAA1/ipms-columbus-7-23-15/ greg

Went there today, Another check off of the bucket list, Unbelievable the vendors and the aftermarket material for the wing and armor builders, few auto vendors, I got the Revell 57 wagon, Met some real nice people and great time, I am working on loading a Fotki album of the show. Hopefully up and running tonight, will list link when done. $5.00 day admission to 7 rooms of vendors and some remarkable entries. greg

A water truck in California? Was it Tom Sellick's? DMM 600 greg

Never had kids but borrowed nieces and nephews, Always known as the uncle with the models, some had presents to take home, The best were the Monogram cartoon planes and hawk weirdos Always to strict in following instructions, forgot the adage about coloring inside the lines restricts imagination greg

Scott, click Greg's link and the red conv. is also in that link greg

keep it going greg

welcome back

Found an old ad for the Honda motorcycle line circa 60's Thought you would enjoy: greg

I think every manufacturer used the C Cab for apparatus, Just depended on cabinetry and pump configuration, I would use the long frame or splice the AMT/ALF pumper frame to the Ford. recommend ScaleFirehouse.com for info from the fire model builders. greg

glad to see this thread , missed this one, good job, nice details and nice corrections like the useless rear view mirrors in the kit, It is always neat to see other modelers aids and hints applied by another. The kit booster reel hose is not useless, makes great radiator hoses. greg

Yes that is the old Revell part pak Triumph greg

Very curious if that is a Buick interior tub, I don't recall side pin locators on the old kits. greg

Getting gas the other night and a Ford Ranger at the next pump, blue over silver dropped suspension, custom bed cover, all slick body, filling the tank inside the bed, powered by 302, greg
