72 Jeepster. Anyone know anything about this coming out.
stavanzer replied to lvfd221's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
That is exactly what happened according to a story I read online. But, instead of standing out, they lost their distinct identity amongst the others, IMHO. -
3D Printed '57 Nash Ambassador Advice
stavanzer replied to Andria H's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Here is a 3D printed 1960's AMC. https://www.ebay.com/itm/267277025317?itmmeta=01JZHEBE4GFS1N90QQEKSHWV9T&hash=item3e3af3c025:g:wqkAAeSw-ltoQJjr -
Comparison Revell vs. MPC 1967 Corvette
stavanzer replied to iBorg's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Mike, I'd look for the Recent Round2/MPC Streaker Vette for the parts. I linked to the Nightstalker/Streaker Vette & Cosma Ray instructions so you can compare parts. Looks like the Chassis and Engine share many parts. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/mpc-instructions/1-sort/mpc-nightstalker-67/?view=roll https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/mpc-instructions/show-rods/mpc-cosma-ray-505-200/?view=roll#1 -

1980 Jeep Macho Hondo
stavanzer replied to satterwhite78's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
One of the reasons I like this kit. Both of those are in the kit! Charles, a really great build of the Honcho! The details are well done. Where did you find the wheels? They really upgrade the kit. Good Show. -
Moebius 1/25 1964 Mercury Comet K-code
stavanzer replied to Justin Porter's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I had to buy the '65 Comet AFX Kit, just to get the Twin Nostril Hood for my Street Machine Comet, so if the '64 Comes with the same style unit, it saves me buying the extra kit. -

Revell (Monogram) 1/24th scale, 1985 Pontiac Fiero
stavanzer replied to Luc Janssens's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Are there any other Revell kits that have been molded with out Chrome Parts? Or is it just these two kits? If it is just these two kits, I'm not worried that this is a trend. Let's wait and see if any others are sold with out Chrome before it becomes too big a Thing. -
Fireworks. After Midnight here in California. Loud Booms still going on. Watched one Illegal Operation shoot Mortars for over 3.5 Hours!. About 11, the guy next door set off 45 minutes of Booms so loud that they set off car alarms for 20 minutes..... I'm sick of Fireworks, Sick of the Idiots who Blow them Up, and Sick of our Useless Fire Department, who makes nasty threats about "Really Cracking Down on Illegal Fireworks this year" , and once again, not following through.

Moebius 1964 Mercury Comet Pro Touring
stavanzer replied to Justin Porter's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I watched it when it came out. My opinion? Too Much Money, not enough Brains. "Just Because you can pay to have it done, does not mean you should do it." He was what I'm beginning to call "Boomer Stupid". Guys with the financial means to make their Wildest Teenage Hotrod Fantasies come true, but not enough brains to learn how to drive, use and take care of their new Fantasy Come True Rides..... There seem to be more out there every day, and many show off on YouTube to document how ***** they really are. -
Yes, I have noticed that the Regular Soft drinks do not foam as much, as the sugar free kind. As for drinking them, I drink 8-12 cans a week. I also drink Crystal Light (or the store brand equivalent) in huge quantities during the summer. AS in 1 or 2 gallons a day. I have an almost Bottomless Thirst, and drink a lot of water.

Henry Used Chrome-Vanadium Steel for Good Reasons. He Over-Built his cars, knowing the roads and conditions they would be used in. -

What is your favorite sports car?

By Far my favorite is the Jowett Jupiter. 1950-1954. Water Cooled Flat Four, Just under 1500 cc. Won it's class LeMans in 1950. I missed getting one when I was 18. I've always pined for one. -
First World Problem. Diet or Zero Sugar Soda in Cans. 12oz, can will now fill a 24-32oz cup with foam when you poor. Way, way too much carbonation. It takes longer to subside too. Root Beer was always bad for this but now almost all Diet Sodas are this way. I know. Really small irk, but now that I've shifted completely to Zero Sugar sodas, it is moving up on my list of daily annoyances.
