All that Walmart paint is pretty nice. ColorPlace is way better than Krylon in my experience. At least they don't have those dumb adjustable nozzles...

What NOT to do with a Jag...
chunkypeanutbutter replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I hate this one with a passion since I saw it few years back in HRM... http://www.posiesrodsandcustoms.com/posies_statements/jaguar/ -
New readers: don't be disparaged by these first posts! It gets better, I promise! Trying to find a 1/24 or 1/25 farm tractor was not something I wanted to pursue any further. AMT Ertl made some, but I don't have $90 plus shipping to buy models. I had this Freightliner cabover lying around which I hated and it's lending its parts to this tractor I'm making. I have a lot of reference for tractor stuff, as there are some examples of these fine machines in the yard This is our Farmall H, of which I'm getting basic tractor-y ideas from. More to come....

That second one is the best. All others are ungodly, like that 120 :sobs: -

Good idea. Just looked it up. It would make more sense with the Cosworth! -

Gah. School this past week. Burnt me out after a summer of vegetating. Now it's the weekend, I have my iPad with a fairly decent camera and some models to work on, this being one of them. -
I shy away from lifted trucks when they're unnecessary. I live in Maine and the stupid things are EVERYWHERE. I mean, it's fine if you actually use it but a lot of people around here just tool around in 'em. Saw a lifted S-10 a while ago, bright yellow with huge wheels... eww. I might make a mud run truck out of it though... good opportunity for weathering.

Ok, what do these two have in common? Ferrari/McClaren

What exactly are you going for? Which body are you using? It'd be nice to see a new car with an old engine instead of vice versa as per normal... -

Looking good! I don't know any tips that might help you, as this looks great already! -

Removed all the decals and chrome today. Took off the parachutes, headlights, and hood scoop and sanded all the glue spots smooth. Then I plugged up the hole in the hood with plastic and filled the gaps between the plug and hood with patching plaster. Pics tomorrow. -

I guess I forgot to mention I'm 16 years old and get $20 a month XD I can get a job though, and I suppose I should. -

I've got that Thames panel dragster that I want to do too, but I suppose I should work on this... went out to the mall today, so I didn't have time. -
