  1. I like it! The wheels will look good. Keep on Truckin'
  2. What a Monster! Boy, they had Fun back then with cars!
  3. I have the 2018 Issue. Great Tires and Decals, but the plastic inside is the same stuff it always was. I like it, but an older kit will get yiu the same parts.
  4. Ron, you might scan this list of Model Car websights. Not sure if it will have what you want or not. https://www.rocketfin.com/model_car_links.html
  5. I had not known the difference between "High side" and "Low side" bodies, until I saw the box pics. Thanks for posting them. Now, I know which kit to get.
  6. It was 72` in town today. Warmer by Saturday.
  7. After reading to comments, everyone else has said it better than I can. Just Stunning Work!
  8. My Little Camry has been well cared for. I am the Third Owner. My Grandmother bought it new in 1987. She gave it to my mom in 2015. My mom gave it to me last year. It is indeed a creampuff! The CV joints are just starting to make that loose bearing rattle, but only on tight turns. So, I will probably take Ace's advice and not worry about them just yet. 30 years ago, I replaced Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Mazda Axles all the time. But, I no longer have access to either a shop or a hoist, and I'm not going to try doing the job on my back in a driveway. I may to try to price some axles though. I may not be able to get them once the car is 40 years old. Thanks to all who gave useful advice. I've read and noted all of it.
  9. I'm driving an '87 Toyota Camry, 109 Thousand miles. It sounds like it might be needing to have the CV joints replaced. Do I dare trust the local Toyota dealer to fix it, or should I find a local shop. The Shop I used to trust has been sold and the none of the Old Techs are there. Not sure if I can still trust the place anymore. And speaking of parts, I figure that genuine Toyota Axles are the only way to attempt to get Quality parts, but you never know now days.
  10. Neat Build,Scott. I really like your Tu-Tone Choices. Two Questions. 1. Where did you source the Grill and Hood. 2. What Wheels/Tires are you planning? Thanks, Alan
  11. I don't know about the Kit, but my next door neighbor has exactly that truck. Teal, Stepside Bed, Extra cab. His has Cragar's on it.
  12. And those Big, Fake Exhaust Zoomies on each side.
  13. Country Musician Charlie Daniels was a Model Car Builder. He even wrote a couple Letters that were published in the Old Scale Auto magazine. Supposedly He Built NASCAR Kits, and other Cars.
  14. An Excellent Build of a terrible kit. You did a Very Good Job on the Paint and finish! Good Show.
  15. Outstanding Build, of a Rare, Famous Plane! Good Show.
  16. Just Great Detailing! I'll be following this one.
  17. Pierre, your work is just so "real'. It never looks like a Model. More Like a Wingrove Miniature! Fantastic, Jaw Dropping Craftsmanship. Good Show.
  18. Fantastic Build, Terry. I really think it looks like a Street Rod would have looked back then. Good Show.
  19. Great Build. It is so nice to see a car built in the style you would have seen on the Streets when it was new. Very Sharp Car. Good Show.
  20. Awesome to see this kit built! Since Round2 just released another version of the Dodge, I wish they could find the few Unique "Smokey" parts and add them back to the kit.
  21. Great Build! I like the little Japanese sedans. Good Show.
  22. Awesome Quality Build. It looks real. Good Show.
  23. Stunning Build. Words fail me. Good Show.
