	Found out today that Dodge finally wised up and is bringing back the 2 door just as it was supposed have. You can get the 4 door in a R/T version or the 2 door with the Scat Pack version. 2026 model will feature a high-output twin-turbo inline-six Hurricane engine producing 550 horsepower.

				Clearing over Revell Chrome Spray
Jon Haigwood replied to DoctorLarry's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have been playing the waiting game with a few days in the dehydrator. I started putting it on heavy until I got a smooth but found it still dulls over time. Now I spray it in short bursts and so far it looks better but time will tell. - 
	
	
				Model Car Store ?
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Must be just another Facebook scam. No more contact . I need to be less impulsive with my internet purchases. If it looks to good to be real it is most likely a scam. - 
	Any place to find 1/8th scale fan belts ? None of my kits have then included.

				3DScale Parts ?
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I have yet to use mine but the plating to me is great, spendy but worth it. Still hunting for big-n-little steelies with wide whites in 1/8th scale. He has some nice ones in most every other scale. May need to buy another kit to rob them from - 
	Looking for some Big-n-Littles with wide whites on Steel wheels . 3dscale has some but not in 1/10th Thanks

	With all the Chrome products out there I thought I would give them a bit of a comparison. I started with spoons primed black then gloss black. I compared Revell Spray, Molotov, SMS. Splash and Alclad. These may not be super accurate but good enough for me. I spayed the chrome coats , after a good drying time I applied alclad Klear. I was told Alclad did the best for Molotov ? Alclad Looks like aluminum, one on left was clear coated (as were all the rest) Molotov did its normal thing looks OK until cleared Reell looked the best until it was cleared SMS looked about the same as Alclad Splash another shiny aluminum when cleared I will give them some time and then check their durability This was not done under scientific methods and your results may very, But I did it for me and it is what it is.

				Large Scale Buick Nailhead ?
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
My plan was to build a Tommy Ivo T tribute, That calls for a Nailhead with injector stacks. Like the1/8th and 1/12th scale I all ready purchased. I am using the 1/8th Golden T as a donor and the 1/8th is to large and the 1//12th is to small . Hoping a 1/10 will work. My other build is a Kookie T tribute, also using a Golden T as a donor. I was going to use a similar Nailhead but I found a parts to make the kit engine work. I think Norms T had a Cad engine. Now finding some white pinstripes is another thing altogether. Trying to get as close to the original Ts as possible but will only be close, that's why I call them Tributes and not Replicas. -
