  1. Yawn. Here's your complimentary dead horse and stick. Cheating happens. No, it's not moral, and no, it shouldn't be part of the game.
  2. Oh, question: do the models have to have underside detail? I was thinking of stuffing huge engines into some smaller cars, like a V8 Beetle, but the underside would be quite complicated to do realistically.
  3. Looking at a Rabbit on Craigslist recently. Nice diesel model, 2 door, a 1985.
  4. And it's a Camaro at the end when the people are wandering around the wreck.
  5. I remember hearing about this cat years ago.
  6. ^ Planning on building a near-replica of that... Was my profile picture a while ago.
  7. Now that's somethin'! Like the T in the roof.
  8. Why did the Potvin blower ever come around? Is it superior in performance to a regular situation on top of an engine?
  9. Dad and I worked on one of our motorized bicycles and got it to run clean. Even managed to get it to idle, which it wouldn't do a year and a half ago, when it was last run.
  10. SBC engines make good junk pieces in junkyard scenes! They don't interest me too much, except for Potvin blown ones. If I end up getting one of these, I'll drop a Cadillac or Poncho engine in it.
  11. Would anyone happen to have a scan of them? GI search turned up nothing.
  12. I'm looking for 1/24 - 1/25 scale Rat Fink decals, either window sticker size or bigger. Anybody here that can point me in a direction?
  13. You can make a convincing one in about five minutes with a Dremel-lathed piece of sprue. I can post a tutorial around 5pm if you need.
  14. Scribing would be the best way. I might do it on mine for a project since I decided not to use it.
  15. Welcome to the board. I'm from Franklin.
  16. There's a down top right behind the bars. I tried making a hardtop, but it didn't look right. As for the headlights, I lost them, and I wanted to have something finished. You all should know how I get almost done and then set something aside!
  17. Not ashamed to say I love the gasser color more than the tow car! Great models, both of them!
  18. Bunch of plastic stock, some Jet Exhaust and Chevy Engine Red paint on markdown ($2.5? a bottle) and some sanding films.
  19. No, I said in the post that I lost them. When I find them or some similar, I'll add them in.
  20. Scout's all done and in glass: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?s=3823dd9dc8a809fbcef949d5cac960c2&showtopic=101637 Might come up with something else soon... Time will tell. Keep building, guys! (Secretly rooting for that junker Ferrari 250 )
