  1. What kit is it? I don't recall having seen it before.
  2. I received the paint for this project today (the green and clear). The dark green should look just excellent on it,... I hope. The others are for an experiment to find just the right blues for a '32 Ford Phaeton and 2003 Ferrari Enzo.
  3. I suspect I'll end up with multiple carbs, one way or another, so I don't think that'd work out for me. I'll certainly keep it in mind for future projects though, so thank you.
  4. There's got to be a way to mix & match. I''ll need to look into it.
  5. If only they did it with full fenders,...
  6. Great. Thank you very much. I had wondered about that. Thanks for the clarification.
  7. OK, thanks, a bunch fellas. I'm rather surprised at how much of this stuff I was unaware of.
  8. This is the engine that came with my Monogram '29 Ford. I have two questions: Is what's depicted a magneto type ignition, requiring no ignition coil? There seems to be only three exhaust ports per side and the exhaust pipes are so configured. Is this some sort of V-6 engine? Thanks a bunch,
  9. Excellent. Thanks a ton, fellas, I really appreciate the help.
  10. I'm not 100% sure yet, as I've not determined what sort of carb setup I'll eventually be using. Basically I was just wanting to know if anyone produced them at all, in any style that I could then choose from. Yes, after I posted my question, I did a web search and found quite a few. I actually like the look of the resin ones better. I know that Fireball makes some awesome carbs, but I've not seen air filters for any of them, at least not from Fireball themselves.
  11. I have a need for some air cleaners for a project that I'm currently working on. Does anyone make nice 1:24 or 1:25 air cleaners, resin or aluminum? Thanks a bunch, Kevin
  12. Not a bad idea. Thanks, Tom.
  13. I couldn't agree more, Dave. I'm a mod on another site, and we're having the very same issues to contend with there.
  14. Wow. Three or four seems to be my limit.
  15. Excellent, and thank you. The '27 Lincoln seems to go for peanuts on feepay, so I'll just (eventually) snatch one from there.
  16. Nope, definitely not me. I almost always include my age and location, and that guy has neither.
  17. As far as my records indicate, I'm not a member there. Do you have a link to the specific thread you're referring to? I'd be interested in reading it. I'm always up for some Skyraider chat.
  18. Interesting to know. Thanks for that. There's something that just really appeals about the original Gangbusters cars though, they bring back such nice memories.
  19. I think you may be confusing me with someone else. Either that, or I'm losing my mind, which is also a distinct possibility.
  20. The one on the right is one of those that I recall, yes, and thanks. I'll have to chase down one (or more) eventually.
  21. No, this would be the Tamiya or Academy 1:25 kits; close enough anyway. I don't think most folks would know the difference.
  22. Not a grail kit so much as something I just really want, is one of the gangster cars that were done many, many moons ago; MPC maybe? I had one or two when I was a pup, and liked them a lot.
  23. What a guy. I think I have the 1:24 Jeep here somewhere too. I intend to eventually use it in a vignette of sorts, with an American soldier examining an abandoned German tank, perhaps a Jagdpanther or Tiger.
