  1. I am alive, and still able to enjoy the many Blessings I have. I don't spend enough effort just being Thankful for My Life.
  2. Yes it is. I'll be getting one soon.
  3. The S-10 Xtreme Wheels might look pretty good on the Elky!
  4. That bed is unique to the Camper Special. It is very difficult to convert it into a 'regular' 8' bed. Best bet is to scrounge a bed from a Moebuis Longbed truck, IMHO.
  5. A nice selection of kits this month, but only the Elky interests me. I'm sure all will find good homes. Better Luck next month, I guess.
  6. Laser Sharp Build. Your clean finish, thoughtful detailing and Tu-Tone paint really make an outstanding pair. Good Show.
  7. Outstanding Build, and a great Tribute to the Guys who drove the Guntrucks!
  8. I hear you , Steve. Just my thoughts on the subject. There may not be much you can do. I really feel for you. Here is a photo of the Official Kern County Dog! The Meth Lab!
  9. It has a Nifty Blower for the Big Block, too. So this is an Custom Version, and the Soap Box Derby version is all stock. Guido, I agree with you about the wheels. They're not bad really, but have absolutely no Pizzazz! They are the worst possible thing a Mag Wheel can be.. Boring. I wish Round2 had thrown in a set of those ubiquitous 5 spokes that they always used as an option in other kits.
  10. Once Again, HPI Guy has it. It looks great so far, I want one.
  11. I'm looking for accessories for my Revell Rubicon Kit. So far the only Upgrade part I have found is this Bumper Set from Iceman Collections. https://tx3dcustoms.com/products/jeep-classic-tube-winch-bumper?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=6dbf3f837&pr_rec_pid=7722202529986&pr_ref_pid=7721162440898&pr_seq=uniform It Looks Great, and I'll be ordering one soon, but are there any other Resin casters doing parts for this kit? I am happy with the Stock Wheel/Tire package, but I'm wanting other Light Bar, Roof Rack, and Other Misc. parts. Is there anything else out there? Thanks, Alan
  12. Awesome Truck. You did a great job on the details. Good Show.
  13. Boy, those ICM Fords sure build up nicely. Yours is sharp and clean. Good Show.
  14. Great Bronco. I like it in that shade of Blue. Good Show.
  15. I need to find a couple of 6 Cyl Wired Distributors. Any Idea who might sell them. Only Vendor I can think of is R&D Unique, and they've gone a long, long time. Thanks, Alan
  16. Awesome Build! Your SD conversion really makes the Kit stand out. The Yellow is perfect for this build. Good Show.
  17. You got a great result from your effort! Fujimi Kit? Good Show.
  18. Drunk Driver last night sideswiped my truck. He managed to come up in my yard, and hit the right rear fender on my truck with the left side of his car. 12"x12" sqaure-ish crease, and some chipped point. Truck is a 2007, but the bodywork was perfect. Police Report has been filed, but I've been up since it happened at 3am..... At least the Rottweiler scared away the folks pounding on my front door. Everybody is Okay, but We (wife & I) are still a bit perturbed by the whole thing. We slept through the crash, but not the subsequent Fight, and Drunken Shouting. Called 911 and stayed inside. I'm not going outside to investigate, when these things happen anymore. Given what happens today, it's worth your life to get involved and I'm not ready to risk it for that yet. But, buying more cameras to cover a couple blind spots now.
  19. I agree, that the '53 Ford Pickup tooling is getting heavy use. It must be selling well enough to warrant the time/money/effort. The optional DeSoto Hemi in that kit it excellent and does make a great street rod or T-bucket power plant. I'm glad to see so many car kits released this month, better than the last couple.
  20. Fabulous Sherman. Those older Tamiya Tank kits build well. Yours looks very good. Aside from war, most Army tanks are really kept as clean as is possible. The Army frowns on dirty equipment. So, the weathering you have done is about perfect to my eye. Looks like a Tank out on an exercise. Good Show.
  21. Pleased to hear from you. Keep resting and getting better.
