Atlantis rolls out ex Revell 57 Chevy Nomad.
stavanzer replied to John M.'s topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
It might just be, that in spite of Atlantis' best efforts, that the tool may be worn out. It has always had a reputation as a fiddly, fragile kit, and many builders are unable for finish it. It's never been known as an easy kit to build. There may not really be much to Adjust or Fix on the tool that will improve it much. -
Man, I really miss the Comic Strip, "Shoe"! One of my favorites!

Thanks for posting Photos of both the Wheels, and Engines! I have a better Idea what to look for now. I'll be installing that FE 427 in one of my '34 Builds now. Thank You!

About the correct ratio!

I am so sorry for you. This kind of thing is extremely hurtful.Sometimes you do need to take break, and re-evaluate the whole situation and relationship. Even with family, sometimes it can be fixed, and other times No-Contact is the best thing for you to do. Good Luck.

I've got to get better at reading. I read "Rust-Oleum Satin Warm Camel" on the first Pass. It sounded like a real colour to me....... -
Some Great Techniques shown here. I'll remember them.

That is the Best, most realistic build of this kit I have ever seen! Just a great finish.

Excellent Build of a rare kit. Superb Workmanship. -
Neat Pic of the Contents. Thank You! Was the Chrome Tree that stripped down in the original?

Thanks for Commenting Dave. I knew you would know about it. Is that the 427 Ford from the '32 Vicki/Phaeton kit? If it is, it would be an easy Kitbash.

The side of the box says "Haulin' Hemi" I've never heard of this kit before, even with the detailed history of it published in Scale Auto Enthusiast back when the '34 P/U turned up in a Lindberg Box. Sure would like to know more about it.

As it says. I need a couple of the Gauge Cluster / Instrument Panel decals from this kit. The Decal sheet shows 4 options for the gauges, so I'm hoping somebody has a couple that they can spare. My recently purchased Mod Stocker Hauler Kit has great decals, but no gauges. That's what I need them for. Thanks, Alan Alexis

Where is it made?
stavanzer replied to Jon Cole's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I'd say let's wait about 6 more months before panicking about Tariffs. Every other Day there is a story about the President, threatening More Tariffs, Reducing Tariffs, Putting Tariffs on Pause, or some Other Tariffs story. He's been President for less than 5o days at this point. Let's not go off about this until we actually see prices steadily rising. I think the markets are waiting for things to settle down. Then they will see exactly what the Tariff percentages are, and price accordingly. So, for now, just set back and give this whole thing some time to shake out.
