Thats the "infamous" Wendell Sowers of AFX N Scale Resin Co. Its best to STAY AWAY! Long history of poor business practices and the like. If you send them money, treat it more like a donation than a purchase, youll never get your items. Even through the legitamacy and cushyness of ebay, ill almost guarantee you will not recieve your item(s) You can obviously do what you please, but there have been long discussions here and on "the other" board regarding these people. Best of luck my modeling friend. If i knew where else to get those caps i would steer you to them. Jay

Nice Job Rasin! One of my all time faves, although i never got the nerve to try to build one Jay

Now your thinkin! Thats way kewl!

Hi Folks! I was wondering if there is anyone out there who can help me out. I have heard for months now about WalMart selling the House of Color line in a spray can. Here in Buffalo, Our Wallys dont carry it. I am desperatly looking for some alternative colors other than the same ###### that is in the Hobby Shops here. I need someone i can hook up with who would be willing to pick me up some colors and mail them to me in Buffalo NY. Id really like to broadenmy horizons and start working with these House of Color paints. It would only be a small order, maybe 2 different colors, and maybe 2 or 3 cans of each(for screw ups) Can anyone help me out? I would be able to pay you either via-paypal or money order. Please of course mark it up to cover your costs, travel time etc. Thanks in advance! Jason Cooltoys1

Starting the conversion this weekend. Ill keep you all posted. Jay

Slimer is a 89, ive had a red 87, a figi blue 89, and a silver 88

I have 3 Mitsubishi Starion kits here, and i am working on the TSI version conversion. Its been a while since i did anything with it, but now i have a renewed fixation with it. Do any one of our slushers(resin casters) wanna step up to the plate and cast off of my TSI? Its a ways away from completion, but it will be very accurate since i have had 3 1:1 Conquests' and i am very familiar with the sexy bodystyle. Jay

Front whitewalls are from the kit, but the rears are cut white vinyl stuck to the goodyear slick (the smooth side with no raised goodyear) Jay

Thanks for all the nice comments gang! I hat to sell her too, but i truely just dont have anywhere to house such a beast! Jay

OK FOLKS, ARE YOU READY FOR THIS ONE?? STARTING LIFE AS A STOCK MONOGRAM 1/12 SCALE 57 CHEVY FUELIE, IVE METICULOUSLY CONVERTED TO A WICKED STREET GASSER! PICTURES DO NOT DO ANY JUSTICE WHATSOEVER THE FINISH AND CUSTOM AIRBRUSH WORK ON THIS NASTY MACHINE. REAL FLAME PAINT WORK COVER THIS MEAN 57 FROM FRONT TO BACK, AND LIKE I SAID, PICS DO NOT DO THE PAINT WORK JUSTICE. SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE JUST STEPPED STRAIGHT OUT OF HADIES HERSELF, A TRUE DEVILS RIDE. JET BLACK PAINT WAS POLISHED TO A REAL CAR - HIGH GLOSS LUSTURE. A FEW OTHER KITS CONTRIBUTED TO THE BUILDING OF THIS 57, AND ALOT WAS ALSO CUSTOM-HAND BUILT. INTAKE AND INJECTION SYSTEM, TRACTION BARS, MOON TANK, AND ENTIRE STRAIGHT AXLE FRONT END WAS SCRATCH-BUILT BY HAND. EVEN THE SHOCKS WERE HAND MADE! HEADERS THAT SHOOT OUT BETWEEN THE FRAMERAILS ARE MADE FROM SOLDER, CUSTOM BENT BY HAND. MOTOR IS FULLY WIRED INCLUDING PLUG WIRES AND ALL FUEL LINES. INTERIOR IS ALL STOCK EXCEPT FOR THE HAND-MADE VINTAGE STYLE "SUN"TACH AND 3 GUAGES ON THE BOTTOM OF THE DASH. ALL CHROME HAS BEEN BARE-METAL-FOILED AND ALL SEPERATE TRIM CAREFULLY APPLIED. CHECK OUT THE PICS AND DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO TRY TO TAME HER, SHE IS A WICKED MACHINE READY TO RUN. CAR MEASURES ALMOST 17" LONG AND STANDS HIGH LIKE A PERIOD CORRECT GASSER SHOULD. THERE IS A SMALL CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD, BUT IT DOES NOT DETRACT FROM THE OVERALL LOOK, AND AT SOME ANGLES, ITS HARD TO SEE SHE IS ON EBAY RIGHT NOW IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED, I HAVE NO WHERE TO KEEP IT. AUCTION #270182397355

Finished this for a friend, get to present it tomarrow, hope he likes it. Mad Dog Resins body, the rest is the Monza Twister innards. Slixx decals. Not sure why pics show the red area that i painted on all jagged, its straight as an arrow. Now i have to do the 81 Camaro...ugh... Jay

Mark, Thanks! Ill be there! Jay

Created from a gratious gift from John(GMCMAN52) this 40 Ford was a vintage buildup that someone had used alot of extra glue. I carefully tore her down and saved what i could ( i wish i would have taken some before shots) and built this period correct gasser straight out of the 50s. I used all vintage parts, either from the original buildup or the parts box and this is what ive created! Hope you like it John, cheers to you for giving me the opportunity to make My Dad happy and me happy at the same time. Jay

Walt, What kind of turnout have you had in the past? Just asking, cuz i may grab 3 of my model buds and make the trek from Buffalo NY. Jay

In the advent and wrapped up in the excitement of the future release of a new tool 69 Nova, i decided to offer a paint mask for the Quenton Terantino movie DeathProof Nova and Charger. Email me if your interested in one at jason1367@juno.com Jay

Looking forward to watching this transpire. Big fan of Barely Cuda I. In my opinion, the best looking kitted Hemi is the Landy Charger-Revell/Monogram. I feel that it has a great amount of detail for 360 degree viewing. Add a custom intake and/or fuel injection and WOW! I have a few if you want one. Jay

I might take the trip, its a long ride from Buffalo NY though. Is there a swap meet too?? I usually go to Toledo but it is getting real crappy. Jay

Special thank you out to Darin Bastedo. Did some recient trading and it went great. Thank You Darin!

more more more more more more more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pleaszzzzzze!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Finally!!!!!!!! Now thats Gonna sell like HoT CakEs! Im gonna get me a couple of those! Jay PS: just saw the gas filler on the top of the rear quarter, NICE TOUCH!

Ohhh S L I C K!!!!!!!!!!! Nice job!!! Show a pic of the 1:1 I love it! Jay

I dont know, is that name corny? If so, ill try to think of another. Any Ideas??? Here we have a Linberg 61 Impala convert crossed with a ZR1 Vette. She will have all the vette driveline and interior, but the 18" Halibrand wheels from Pegasus. Im thinking of bright yella paint, tan leather interior. I was inspired by Darins' "Barely Cuda", nice job Darin!

Darin, I would definitely fix what is needed and keep the original everything else. Shes' beautiful, just tune her up a little! Jay

Can you say HEMI 2X 87 GTA, 350 TPI, Dont get blinded by that forehead!!

The Big Block that we all know and love was introduced in 1965, but the big block "block" itself was actually very close to the 409, just different heads. Any kitted big block chevy 396 designation can be used for your 454 application. The only difference is in 1:1 truck blocks(they have a higher deck, the distance from the top of the waterpump and the ledge where the intake sits) open and closed chamber heads (which you dont have to worry about this in kit form)and alternator placement. In 1978, the big block chevy 454 was not put in any car, but you could still get it in the heavy duty chevrolet truck line. If your going to use it in a vette, i suggest the later alternator placement, which is placed on the passenger side of the car. The 396 in the 66 Chevelle will have the alternater on the driver side, if anything, find a pulley and alternator setup for placement on the right. Good luck to you, please show us your progress! Hope this helps. Jay
