Is there a copyright date on the instructions?

Just decant some Tamiya TS-23 Light Blue and brush it on.

Guess I need to upgrade my cell phone Ever try to text with one of these?

You might want to edit the title (if it's not too late) to say "Over 400"...I'm sure you're aware that 420 has another meaning.

Very nicely done. I don't think I've ever seen white spark plug wires before.

In your first pic, is that a watermelon in the background?

Parts? There are times when I can't even find my car in a parking lot!

To what are you applying the pens? Is it a porous material, paint, raw plastic, etc.? I've had a 4mm pen that gave silver letters on an envelope.

OK. I have several pictures in the bottom area. How do I insert them into the text in the upper area, in order to have text in between the pictures? As a side not, this keeps changing, and leads to a lot of frustration.

Small parts can be done, but I doubt if it's large enough to make slot car bodies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aat5m46RE1s

The Trans Am was an optional version of the Firebird...the T/A was not a stand-alone series of bodies, kinda like the Gran Prix was a version of a Pontiac.

You actually have an LHS? You are among the lucky few! Keep patronizing them, or else they'll go out of business.

Very nice looking! Why do you only include two pictures per post? You are allowed to have more than that.

Just make sure it's a used dryer sheet; fresh dryer sheets can leave a residue.

I second that motion.

Very nicely done! BTW, the Hemi decals over the rear wheel wells seem to be in conflict with the 440 decals on the engine...the 440 was a wedge

Thanks, I'll do that after the connectivity issue has calmed down. In your example, one post was involved; I would be affecting quite a few posts.

I’ve posted quite a few tutorials, and I used Photobucket (P/B) as the hosting site for the images. When P/B got greedy, they started watermarking photos if you didn’t pay their hosting fees. In doing so, they made my tutorials virtually worthless. The image below is an example: the upper half is what I uploaded to P/B, and the lower half is what you see because I didn’t bow to the P/B extortion. I’ve noticed other tutorials that have the same blurred images. Since you can’t edit older posts (I only wanted to replace the images), I had to come up with Plan B. In an effort to salvage a tutorial that has popped up several times recently (bending tubing), I diligently copied the text into MS Word, located the original images on P/B, and was ready to create a new tutorial when it occurred to me there was a better way. After locating the images on P/B, I opened the bending tubing tutorial in another window, went to the end of the tutorial part (before the comments were posted) and selected the Quote box. I then went to the quoted tutorial text/photos area, deleted the butchered images (one at a time), and copy/pasted the pristine images one at a time. After all was said and done, I did the Submit thing. As a result, the original tutorial was salvaged, although you have to scroll to the end to see the revised version. An added attraction: if anyone has bookmarked the original tutorial, that bookmark is still valid. Here’s a link to the bending tutorial after the above processes were applied. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/102629-bending-tubing/

Great looking! I really like the contrast on the wheels!

Thank you sir; you've come through again! You Da Man!

Whew! Looks like you found the glitch. Thank you

I finally got on this afternoon. Looked at a thread, then clicked Forums, and received the dreaded message again.

Looks good so far. Any plans for pinstriping? That was quite common back then.

The last few days I've been having difficulty getting the site to come up. I intermittently get this message: Anybody else having this problem? I'm using Windows 7 and Google Chrome.
