  1. That's awesome. Plain awesome. It's not a hack job on the bodywork; looks nicely executed. Imagine jacking the rear up with enough room for slicks, put a nice V8 in it....
  2. To have something to complain about, I surmise.
  3. Revell has some good stuff. Sure, it's lacking in detail, but any chimp with a knife and some plastic can fix the shortcomings therein. I'm kinda scarred from the AMT Fruitwagon's multipiece cab and a lot of flash, but their older kits were good. Back around 2004-ish, I built a handful of AMT/Ertls, and never had any complaints. Maybe I'll try their new Ranchero out. Moebius has nothing that is too interesting to me, although it'd be cool to make the Fabulous Hudson Hornet. Tamiya is wonderful. I've only built two of theirs, and they were both Minis. Great parts fit, no flash at all. Some little mold pins, but that's about it. Everything fits nicely and has crisp detail. The decals are great. Great little "no-worries" kit. Their replacement policy is great, too. I had a malformed brake drum on one of the parts trees, and they replaced it and the roof at no cost!
  4. Well, that's like what they did to the original GNX, but with a tudor.
  5. Bring a Palmer kit to Moebius HQ
  6. Love the whole album. Go Zappa
  7. Yeah.... My builds are never really done, so they sit on the shelf of doom for a while, go to the bench for repairs, back on the shelf, bench for mods.... and on, and on....
  8. Tried Bondo once. Took forever to set, slightly warped the body (just a tiny bit, but enough to show on a vent), and was hard to sand. The Tamiya stuff works wonderfully.
  9. Definitely open the grille. Ten minutes of your time, and ten times better look.
  10. I bump things when they fall back a page. So what? Other people do it too. Many times, when I bump things, people get them. All I'm looking for is to see if people like the same kind of music as me. I don't try to stump people like I did before. But since you seem to be annoyed with how I do things, I am done. Have fun.
  11. Saw 1/24 scale bras before A sheet of them in plastic... all kinds on the Internet.
  12. That's why the max I do is change the belt with tape, put battery wires on, and ignition wires.
  13. Yep! First heard the song on a Need For Speed game and decided to dig through more of their songs.
  14. Sure. Be a jerk about it. I was just bumping it because it got buried quickly.
  15. Well, you could probably sell it for three times that much with the right audience and the right timing... but if you like it, then build it! That's what kits were meant to be used for!
  16. This page: http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/293251-how-to-properly-color-a-y-block.html .... ....says.... "'54 - Creme/Ivory colored block with red air cleaner and valve covers, black accessories '55/'57 - Red block, black valve covers and accessories, Argent Gray air cleaner '58 - red block, black air cleaner, valve covers, and accessories"
  17. "I said the joker is a wanted man He makes his way all across the land See him sifting through the sand So I'll tell you all the story About the _____ ___ ___ _____ of the night He's always laughing in the midst of power Always living in the final hour There is always sweet and sour So we are not going home Can you see the joker flying over As she's standing in the field of clover?" Watching out everyday I wonder what would happen if he took her away
  18. My sister got the guys from Beer and Board Games to insult me! It was pretty funny
  19. I was just thinking that
  20. Check out the video here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8ylNZqArYSg It's so cool to see all these famous vehicles being brought back to life lately.
  21. Com Truise! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MCs_1EFmjkg
  22. Where did that quadbike come from?
