  1. It looks better & better! Keep up the good work.
  2. Any Progress on this one, Dennis? I've been re-reading your build thread looking at your techniques.
  3. I thought I remembered seeing the Vega Railcars in HO Scale. Did I imagine it? It was over 35 years ago, when I saw it in a magazine.
  4. Yeah, that is Wonderful that you restored that. It looks great.
  5. David G is correct. You could try deliberately to get that effect, and not get it. It looks great!
  6. It is looking really nice.
  7. Great Story, and a nice tribute to him. It looks good without the chrome.
  8. Now when you said Shiden, I thought of this.. N1K2-Ja Shiden
  9. I hadn't noticed before. Those are the '34 Fenders. Using them for the sidemount spare?
  10. I too am sorry for you. That is just awful treatment on the Doctor's part. I hope when you get better, you can get some recompense from him, for all the trouble he has caused.
  11. Oh, I had an '84 GMC 3/4 Ton with the Big Saddle tanks. I liked them where they were. All of the trucks were not as safe back then. Just the way it was.
  12. Yeah, from the mind of a NBC staffer, looking for viewers! All Trucks had issues with Gas Tanks burning when punctured in accidents. Ford were supposed to be worse, if I remember some of the research that was done when the NBC Story was debunked. GM was the designated punching bag that year.
  13. You are correct, I meant Notchback.
  14. Those are very nice. I want one, someday.
  15. Did the even make a kit of a Hatchback? That is a sharp little car there. Was/Is that yours?
  16. Off to the Secondary Market I guess. I've got other kits to build, so I'll just work on those, and get my Nostalgia Fix later.
  17. I wonder if Atlantis has the Indy Pace Car tooling, or if the Mustang Tooling that is left is the Monkey's Convertible?
  18. I've got to wait a month. Mad Money for August has already been spent.
  19. Model Roundup just listed these kits for Pre-Order. Gentleman, Start Your Credit Cards!
  20. Model Related Irk. Just got the Round2 1966 Thunderbird last week. All is packaged nicely, but Once again, the steering wheel is Bent & Broken. This happens on about every 5th Round2 kit I buy, especially when it is an old AMT tool, like the '66 T-bird. This time the Steering Wheel is cut off from the tree, floating around in the bag by itself. Still looks ruined. I've got plenty of steering wheels, so I can find something to fit. I am planning on building it as a Kustom, so the steering wheel issue is not a show stopper for this build. But, this keeps happening. Kats, please check the QC on steering wheels. Too many times, the shipping seems to bend or smash them by the time they get to the store or mail order house. This kit came from Model Roundup, but it has happened to me a few times in kits from Hobby Lobby. I don't squawk much about it, because many old AMT kits come with a choice of steering wheels, and usually at least one in usable. So, I just move on. But, it is disappointing.
  21. Nothing I want on that list, but it is very nice to see the 2023 Bronco, and the Mopower car coming. One Very New Tooling, with an extension, and one very old tooling, not seen for many, many years. Good Job, Kats!
  22. Brian, I really like the wheels and paint on that Mustang. Great Build.
