  1. Check with Bandit Resins, I believe Kenny has the grille you are looking for.
  2. X2! He is among the best in terms of service and quality.
  3. Thanks for the update Harry. While it is encouraging that you are able to be at home, I am sure you are looking into different living arrangements so you do not have to deal with stairs and other troublesome things. Continued prayers for your recovery and better days!
  4. I was able to fit the chassis from the recently reissued 84 GMC 4x4 pickup under the 65 Chevy pickup to make it a 4wd and I will plan on doing the same once the Suburban comes out to convert it to 4WD.
  5. I have completed that many models in the last 5 years! Nice job on all of them and love the variety!
  6. Who knew the guy who builds super pro mod cars can also build some outstanding "stock" cars? Nice job on all of them Tyrone, you definitely know how to build clean, well detailed models regardless of the type.
  7. Perfectly said Bill! Thanks for sharing Harry, hope you are continuing on the road to recovery, miss having you on here.
  8. Nice model, that blue is very deep! I am a bit confused when you say Ray was not happy about your comments because you also mentioned Holthaus kits, where did that kit originate? The pictures make that body look like a plastic kit!
  9. That is about $7300 a year, and I doubt it will get any cheaper! I never smoked (tried it, didn't like it) but my parents and older siblings did. Despite quitting some time ago, my oldest brother is now battling lung cancer. My parents quit late in life and they lived into their 90's!
  10. 6 weeks after my father passed away, my mother had a series of minor strokes. They had been married 68 years and 11 months at the time of his passing. She hung on for another 18 months but eventually passed away after a massive stroke. I prefer to think she died of a broken heart because I talked to her everyday after my father's funeral up until she could no longer talk and every conversation included how much she missed him and wanted to be together again in heaven.
  11. Neat stuff there George, I remember when some of those resin kits came out and thinking..."I should buy that" only to procrastinate and miss out on buying them before the company went out of business. I like that Tahoe, surprised AMT never offered that and a Suburban in promo or kit form.
  12. According to news reports, Debbie was very despondent over Carrie's sudden death and suffered a massive stroke at her son's house while discussing funeral plans. While not always newsworthy as it doesn't always include celebrities, this type of death of a parent, child or spouse following the death of a loved one isn't uncommon.
  13. Sad to hear, gotta think the sudden death of her daughter was partly to blame.
  14. one word...............OUTSTANDING ! Love the outdoor shots, almost thought I was looking at a real car.
  15. Nice job on all of those Raoul! Fantastic builds, nice variety and all VERY well detailed.
  16. That is very nice and appropriate colors! Should be a beauty when done.
  17. They are die cast toys John!
  18. First full day of winter here in Charlotte saw temps in the mid 60s and a bright sunny day. Much like my hometown of Chicago, the weather will change tomorrow as a cold front moves in and it will be cold, rainy and gray.
  19. He is referencing the fact that he had his Facebook page open and it was running simultaneously as the MCM forum and they both consumed "internet energy" and it seemed to be contributing to the problem. If you don't do Facebook, then it doesn't apply to you, however, if you have other web pages open, it can cause a slowdown. Kind of kinking the water hose and slowing down the flow of water.
  20. I have the same issue Ron. If for the $20 I also got the wheel flares then I would be a buyer.
  21. Merry Festivus to all !
  22. Looks like another killer build from you Tyrone! Never get tired of your over the top detailed vehicles, amazing to look at!
  23. link doesn't work and a search of eBay has come up empty.
  24. Care to share that information and maybe some pictures?
