Debbie Reynolds dies today from a stroke RIP
NYLIBUD replied to NYLIBUD's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Definitely sad.I guess she couldn't handle the loss of her daughter. -

These are some of the different sizes of slicks I usually use.The one in the middle is from Pegasus hobbies.They are top fuel tires.They are the largest tires I've ever found.But I haven't seen any lately on line.I've gone to Pegasus Hobbies site,but I never see them.They come with wheels,and yellow/white colored Goodyear decals.I can't remember where I got the slicks on the left.Ive got a bunch of those.And the smaller tires on the right,are from a 1/24th scale diecast pro stock car.I don't know if this helps at all.By the way,Great job so far on your Nova.

I didn't know really where to post this picture that I found somewhere on line the other day.I mean it's weird,but it is a car,actuslly it's a drag car.So I thought put in the drag racing section.But I'll play it safe and post it here.Its a Legos Notchback Mustang drag car.Hmmmmm?.Definitely weird.

Great job.AMXs don't ever get the respect that they deserve.They're great cars.I had 2 of them,many moons ago.I really like the blue you chose.Very well done.

Great job.The outside pics are amazing.The car looks real.

RIP Carrie Fisher,aka Princess Leia..She was also hilarious in "When Harry Met Sally",Being Meg Ryan's close matchmaker friend.She will be missed...May the force be with her,always.

Well it's not only in the NHRA,but in NASCAR,as we'll..To me,it's just the stupid sponsorship decals.I mean we all know there ain't no Toyota engines in any of those cars.

To ROLL or not ?
NYLIBUD replied to D. Battista's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yea,Im with the NOT rolling guys.Ive had cars roll off tables and shelves in the past.And as others have said,that sound of a plastic/resin model smashing into pieces,is more than I can stand.Arrrgggg???.I did however,make them roll when I was just starting out building.I thought you had to make them roll.I mean after all,it was part of the instructions.Ha.However,now there is no reason for them to move.In fact most of my cars now,are drag cars,with fat tires,and wheel tubs.So it's just easier for me to glue everything into place.....Great question,though. -

NYLIBUD replied to Danno's topic in Diecast Corner
Oh,but wouldn't it be very cool,if Revell was to do that?Also,I really like your choice of box art.It looks fantastic. -
I just wanted to wish everyone who hangs out on this site,a Very Merry Christmas.And a Happy,Healthy New Year.Funny the reason why I'am up this early,is that my 6 year old son wants to meet Santa..But it's ok,cause he's starting to fall asleep.?Thank G-D.Oh and a happy Chanukah as well..

You know another thing,you do a fantastic job with wrapping your carbon fiber sheet parts.I always find it difficult to work with the cut./water slide sheets.Wondering if you can tell me what you use for your carbon parts? -

NYLIBUD replied to Danno's topic in Diecast Corner
Ah,I always liked police cars,And of course u gotta love the The Blues Brothers Great cars,great chases,and some Damm good music....And in the immortal words of Elwood,It's 106 miles to Chicago,we got a full tank of gas,half a pack of cigarettes.Its dark out,and we're wearing sunglasses....Hit it!! -
I'am with W409,,and Snake.I got really excited to read about the Nova contest.I love all Novas up 1973.However I'm not into the whole FaceBook thing either.Yes there are people who don't have a Face book account..WellI look forward to seeing some really cool Nova builds over the next few weeks.Heres one of mine that I've been working for awhile.And I just really like the "real"black one too
