  1. That looks awesome Chuck, nicely detailed and love the two tone paint job!
  2. That is way cool! Talk about hot rod history, those are some of my favorite cars from my youth!
  3. Rust-Oleum tends to go on thick and therefore is not ideal for model building. There are many alternatives that will yield a quality paint job without the long drying times of enamel, lots of posts on this forum to read through. What works for one person might not work for the other.
  4. The trailer is a bit wider than the Revell and AMT trailers to fit the wider stance of Wes's modified kits.
  5. I have seen several posts on Facebook that Steve Magnante is experiencing some serious health issues and is in the hospital. Prayers that he is able to recover, he is a huge presence in our hobby and the car community and would be missed should he not be able to beat this illness.
  6. Nice truck! Surprised they never offered the Lightning in a step side configuration.
  7. Cool stuff, I need to build more before I buy more!
  8. Check out Dave Parsley on FB, he makes all kinds of unique stuff, he might have that.
  9. My wallet is safe this month.
  10. As far as I know, they are shut down.
  11. 27 years? I'd say you got your money's worth and $1300 is cheap for a replacement
  12. Need to keep an eye on the news, rumblings going on that the UAW and the automakers are going to have a stare down over the new contract and the UAW is threatening a strike. Lot's of money at stake, much like the UPS deal and any work stoppage will delay your order.
  13. Which 67 kit are you referring to, I believe there is a hardtop and convertible kit for the 67.
  14. My apologies, I thought it was a legit obituary and knowing that he and his health had been discussed here, I posted it without knowing it was a fake, it was a long day yesterday and I was pretty tired when I saw that and should have known better. I met Donn years ago at a show and he seemed like a nice enough guy. Sorry to have caused any problems.

  16. Re-setting aisles in retail stores is a very common procedure and could mean they have more stuff coming into that aisle or need to adjust the shelves or locations of the models. Their selection depends on what their buyers choose or are offered by the model companies and I am sure they know that Mustangs and Camaros are must haves!
  17. Kris Morgan is here on this forum, search his name and send a PM. That is how I do my orders and it's flawless. He's a one man operation, not sure how much help he gets to update the website and process orders. Buy with confidence, Kris is a standup guy.
  18. I picked up my two at the CKM show in Clemmons NC, thanks to Wes at Wes's Model Car Corner. Already started looking at what tires/wheels I have to swap out and also looked at making a half cab conversion.......It's no wonder I never get a model completed! Lol
  19. I've been saving my lunch money for this show, but not sure how much I really "need". I did order some kits from Wes's Model Car Corner that I will pick up from Wes. Always a good show, looking forward to seeing the models on display.
  20. I stopped in the HL in Kenosha Wisconsin today to find that they have the same selection of kits as the HL stores in NC!
  21. Not for nothing but your post is hard to read and follow along as to what happened. I have bought from Chris before without issues, maybe I was lucky?
  22. Neat stuff! Nice to see a company realize there is a market for their parts and offer them up to us modelers. Might want to consider doing that with the upcoming wrecker bed if you can.
  23. Sounds like you have your priorities in the right place, enjoy those girls and make memories with them, you won't regret it. Enjoy and check back in here, show us your latest creation and have fun!
  24. My wallet is safe this month from these releases. Now if only the 2021 Bronco would hit the stores..........
  25. I recently placed an order with Joseph and he said it would be about two weeks for order processing.
