    That Satellite grille will work for a '68 Belvedere NYPD RMP.

    That's an oxymoron. "Fast food" pizza is cardboard slathered with ketchup and some unidentified processed cheese substance. This is pizza

    Shouldn't be a surprise. Rustoleum is the parent company of Testors. All recent Testors paint products are labeled as "Rustoleum". There is another line of paints you might be interested in. MRP One can never have too many paint brand choices.

    That's not cheating. That's saving time. BTW, Aber makes a set of PE weld lines. Pretty handy item:

    Hey, Ron. Contrary to what those on Longuylant believe, Brooklyn isn't a foreign country. Probably half the people in your neck of the woods are originally from there. You need to get yourself to Coney and take a few rides on it. Afterward, you can hit the boardwalk and enjoy some ice cold beers at Ruby's Bar & Grill.

    New O-rings. I have an Olympos HP-101which I bought over 30 years ago. I use methylene chloride, which is harsher than just about anything one can use to clean the brush and the original O-rings are still good. Lightly lubricating the rings with a minuscule amount of silicone grease or petroleum jelly, applied with a Q-Tip, prevents rubber rings from dry rotting.

    Paintscratch.com has Color Code: 2287-H Sierra Gold Metalli-Chrome listed for 1956-58 Chevrolets. You can order it in a spray can; however, it'll cost you $26.95 for a 12 oz. can.

    I have used their FS colors and I agree with Charley about not using acetone to thin them. Re cleaning the airbrush, I use methylene chloride. It cleans EVERYTHING out of the brush.

    That roller coaster no longer exists. The Cyclone is operational. If you're talking firsts, Coney is still home to the first roller coaster in America, June 16, 1884, to be exact: First roller coaster in America opens

    Outstanding! Now, all you need to do is find some 1/25 sprockets and you're in business. Seriously, though, that is a really nice price for what looks like almost eight feet of fusee chain.

    The granddaddy of all that followed. You never looked better!

    In my neighborhood, Friday nights meant going to the fish store and getting fried fish and those wonderful, thick crinkle cut fries that turned the brown paper bag translucent from the oil soaking through. Catholic thing, no meat on Fridays. Not done today, though. No more fish stores.

    For actual vehicles, right here: Auto/Truck/Fleet Paint Cross Reference If you can't find it there, it doesn't exist. For model paints: The Ultimate Model Paint Conversion Chart For any and every type of paint/color: Encolorpedia

    That's why I follow up with Testo....er, Rustoleum ELO. No soak, just brush on. Clean as the proverbial whistle.

    Here's the rub. Tyler doesn't have an airbrush and is looking for spray can paint matching, or close to, UP Yellow. Edit: Never mind. I just noticed you mentioned Scalecoat. Might as well order the spray paint directly from Minuteman Scale Models.

    If you don't mind using PE, Aber has this set. All of the joints, nipples and valves are hollow: Instructions They look really good when assembled.

    Google had this pop up for "Parts by Parks".

    I posted this on March 16, 2018 regarding storage of CA adhesives: Not knocking you, Ray. Just trying to clear up a commonly repeated misconception.

    Check Home Depot. That's where I get Loctite Super Glue Gel Control if I need it. For $2.98, not $28. $28 isn't the price for a single .14 oz. (4g) bottle. That's the price of a 12 pack.

    Gone the way of the dodo and half-dollar piece. BTW, you'll be hard pressed to find any new stuff under the Testors name. Everything is being rebranded as Rustoleum. I noticed that when i checked the labels of new paints I bought.

    Auto World indicates that the trailers will be available this month and the Krate bike in July. All other online stores are accepting pre-orders for both.
