  1. I have a Wahl Trimmer. I used it quite a bit, until the wife wanted the beard gone. It was a great machine.
  2. They re-tooled some new Wheels to fit some Ex-Monogram Tires.
  3. Sure would be nice if they did. I wonder how the Round2/ MPC 2WD Sodbuster is selling?
  4. Great Job, on your Ranchero Gasser. Not Only did you nail the look, you have a great start back in the hobby! Good Show.
  5. Absolutely Awesome Build, Alberto! Your L.E. Models are some of the best I've ever seen. You take the time to sweat the small details, and it really shows. Good Show.
  6. I saw a Tesla Cybertruck in Bakersfield! Out of 3878 Sold, one made it here. I've seen it twice now. Not Impressive in person. It looks oddly toylike and awkwardly proportioned.
  7. Pat's Ike Iacono GMC Dragster is Featured in The Rodder's Journal issue # 44, on Page 10. A 1 to 1 scale model. Great Pics too.
  8. It would be great to see some TD kits back. I'm not sure which ones Atlantis has. I'm betting that the Re-Tooled Rommel's Rod and Tijuana Taxi are still in China, but others may be here in the States. AS for the S'cool Bus, a nice kit. I'd like to have a couple more of them. Dave, your version is great!
  9. Cool. I really Like them. Great Deora!
  10. I like the Colour, and the Wheels! Good Show.
  11. Perfection! Could have come right off the pages of "The Rodder's Journal"
  12. Thank You! I have a set of the FMR-117 Lights on order, just for this project.
  13. I see that this kit keeps getting pushed back farther and farther for availability for the next Run. One Noted Online Retailer has pushed the kit from "MId-April" to just "May" and three Days ago to simply "June"...... If you waited to get one, the re-order time keeps shifting. They must be completely sold out now. The '63's are getting thin on the ground, too. These seem to be enormously popular kits.
  14. If you look at the White Parts trees, both the Carburetted and F.I. Manifolds are in the kit. The Tiny Air Cleaner for the Carb is still on the Chrome tree, too. Watch the Front Axle in this kit. It has always been weak, and prone to breaking. I'm not real fond of the Deeply Tinted Glass in this kit. It is a Call-Back to the awful 1980's MPC kits. Not Sure who at Revell though this was a Good Idea, but they could have at least done both a clear and tinted glass tree. Frankly, the whole kit smacks of Penny-Pinching and doing things on the Cheap. The Wheels had to be re-tooled to fit the Ex-Monogram Goodyear Sports Car Special Tires, since the old wheels would not have fit. The Decal Sheet is very nice, but Two (2) set of Lic Plates is not a lot, despite what the reviewer says. But, it is a decent kit, and makes a nice Street Machine Build, if nothing else.
  15. Anu body have a photo of that build?
  16. Looks like there will be no Chrome. Not Deal Breaker for me, but could be an obstacle for some. I think that the folks who know about and purchase ICM kits will not be Fazed. They can do Chrome themselves, so it won't bother them.
  17. Great Photo's Robert. Shows exactly how different the cars are.
  18. And there you have it. That was the reason for the kit. It wasn't for us. It was for fans of the show. If some Model Builders were also fans, well "Great"! If not, no harm done. And, I agree. It will return someday. But, no telling what Round2 will do to market the kit.
  19. Beautiful Rods, Blue!
  20. Polish Sausage (on the George Foreman Grill), Oven Baked French Fries, Grilled Onions, and Moose Tracks Chocolate Ice Cream. Excellent Dinner!
  21. I'm not sure.... I think the options (UN-Officially) are to paint the window glass, or carefully fill the window opening with sheet plastic.
