Finding one of these with no cussing was a challenge, lol, but since he regenerates

I'm starting to enjoy the vatiety of ads I'm getting at the moment. If you're not playing CaptTuttles game already, after you do the ads get crazy funny

while agent smith could fight aliens, he had nothing for zombies

Thought some of you may enjoy this vette. Its not usually my sort of music but it seems to suit in this case

there are other planets

according to a google search boiling water will disolve that (I dont know anything about that stuff so have to assume it correct)

it will still be new to some of us mate, and tips like these are always handy to know

I have something to say about that (not a dig at miss thunberg, just an appropriate pic)

I tend to find out here or from the hlj emails

a cut pipe should sort that

There are diecast in my local supermarket (tesco for the uk guys) in 1/24. Its not too bad for the price about 8quid i think, the shape looks right and the scale seems ok. It has an interior that could be used possibly to do the airfix kit into something or at least a starting point for one of you guys that details up diecasts. I'm thinking to get one to steal the wheels, steering wheel and seats for one of my vw builds

there's a few resin engines for the r32 and the tamiya nismo street car has a nice one too. I dont know off a r34 engine but theres a good chance someone makes one given how popular skylines are but it would probably be street engines

Cool, I've seen a few 1/1s done like this to display product. A great idea for a model.

The fit of tamiya kits is pretty tight sometimes so you may need to trim the sills and back edges of the bumpers too for easy removal. You may find though that the body hangs lower than you want when it is on too as it would be sitting on the cage. Whats your plans for the engine as I dont believe this kit comes with one which may spoil the effect you are after. I hope I'm not putting you off though, this sounds like a really cool project and I'll be following

Wild and very cool

Cool and a great idea using the interior tub as a body, it sure looks the part

I'll give it a chance but if it gets bad again I'm afraid i will replace it

to get a straight edge there's a simple method I use. You will need a razor saw, enough masking tape to cover the face of the rim you are cutting and a few bits of something solid that is the same size you wish to remove from the wheel and the length of the saw blade. On a smoooth flat surface (I use an old photo frame) lay 2 strips of the wood parralell to each other. Place the blade of the saw on top of this and tape down firmly and lengthways. Take care to be sure at this point that the height is the same as what you wish to remove, and not on the spine of the saw. Next tape the face of the rim up to protect the chrome (I do this even if it will be painted to save the fine detail) Now put the rim face down and and start sliding it along the edge of the saw, rotating often and you will get a straight and level cut. The reason for laying the rim face down is its a level surface, while the back of some rims may look level to the eye, generally they have mounts which get inthe way. Hope this helps EDIT: make sure to only put light pressure on the rim when cutting as you are removing all the strength from the rim and too much pressure could deform/break it

avoid the arm and hammer baking soda paste, well all the baking soda pastes as they will ruin your day

My sister got a bravery award for her job with the scottish ambulance service last week, at edinburgh castle from the first minister, and today she got interviewed by the radio about it. She was very modest about it all and made sure to repeat many times how many other people were involved in the rescue and how without them she wouldn't have managed. Tomorrow she's away again to be recognised for raising a fair amount of cash for multiple sclerosis at the houses of lords in london. I'm most happy to see her being recognised for what she does, not for the awards as she herself has multiple sclerosis. Personally I think she is a great example of humanity

I've sent them a message through ebay so hopefully he still has the mould. The 57 will be getting ordered either way though

thanks, I'll try ebay

Does anyone have up to date contact details for bestmodelcarparts? I would like one of their hebmuller conversions but the website is just an empty template
