  1. I'll take your word since you're actually using it.
  2. National Lampoon was the first to write a parody on this. It was a two-part story in the September and October 1982 issues. Speaking of coyote sightings, this happened in March. Coyote takes casual morning stroll through Queens
  3. Wile E. Coyote v. Acme Company
  4. If you want to add a '63 Impala to your stash, or just to build, might as well get the AMT kit and put your modeling skills to work because it doesn't seem like Revell will be reissuing its version anytime soon. Or later. Fleabay prices border on the ridiculously expensive.
  5. Alumilite Amazing Mold Putty would work. Picks up the finest details.
  6. Snagged another Revell '62 Lancer GT for cheap on fleabay a few minutes ago.
  7. It's a GM A-body platform. Chassis from '65-'67 AMT/Revell Chevelles and the AMT/Lindberg '66-'67 Olds 442 kits would work.
  8. This is comparable to the old joke, "How do I get to Carnegie Hall? Practice."
  9. Bill was referring to working in an auto shop environment.
  10. Only the box art and price for the next reissue will.
  11. Ask three people what time it is and you'll get three different answers. Those links contained the least confusing descriptions of either type found on Google.
  12. Bada-bing, Bada-boom, brother! Also, don't attempt to polish out a substandard spray job. Strip it clean and start over. Polishing has the effect of causing the metallic particles to displace and move in unwanted patterns.
  13. The Revell '63 Impala tail lights would work. So would the Revell '64 Impala's. Check fleabay for both and look for parts under each.
  14. Common sense prevails.
  15. Usually a euphemism for junk.
  16. It's Mod Podge. "Hodgepodge is something completely different. Google results regarding diluting/thinning it. Better for you to decide which method would work.
  17. The booth can be easily scratchbuilt. There are plenty of PE working hinge sets available from Aber, Voyager and other companies.
  18. Not really. The brass frets a pretty flexible. I form the tiedowns over various micro drill bits. The stainless frets are a bit stiffer; however, annealing them with a butane torch or lighter makes them easier to work with.
  19. Great tip, Steve. Since I build a lot of 1/35 armor, 1/72 and 1/48 aircraft, I use the thin parts of brass/stainless PE frets for the same purpose.
  20. Roger that. I have several from '59-'66. I picked up a nice mint '64 HT promo a while back and will do the same.
  21. The only difference is probably the price. I did a comparison of the instructions and they're the same kit with the exception of the optional parts as Steve pointed out. AMT 682/12
  22. Compare the instruction sheet from the one you're building with THIS
  23. If you have a cell phone, use it.
  24. What I found: What Does Direct-To-Metal Mean? What Does Weld Through Primer Mean?
