We can dream...can't we

If you want to use that "bigger hammer" as a description, the Turbo Dodges weren't really tuners then.....They weren't too far above "bigger hammer" that when it came to repairing or modding them Technically, wouldn't that also make Shelby (both Ford and Dodge cars), Mr. Norm, Yenko, and Nickey cars all tuner cars as well then?

IIRC, somebody from Chrysler entered an all white SRT-8 Challenger in the last One Lap of America, unfortunelty it hit a was and was disqualified because of body damage (it had no front body work left, I think they would have tried to continue if given a chance.)

I'd have never thought to use something like that for a body.............................

How about an Electro-Motive engine.......no wait......that's probably bigger than the whole car

Is there something funny with the nose of that car, or am I seeing things?

Are those fluorescent, neon, or LED under-glows? If those are LED and you can change the color, Red would look down right EVIL on that car

Gotta go with Model on this one too, the lettering on the chrome and plate doesn't look right to me.

Ohhhhh, great idea I love it!

Looks like it belongs on a "Trucks Gone Wild" video and reminds me of the bodies I did up for my Wheely King

IIRC hte exhause is actually Chrome, I'll bet they look black because of reflections off the fenders.

Alright guys, I've just started a new eModelCars account under the name BJoeHandley and will be starting a handful of auctions before I go to bed tonight! BTW, I'm going to put a $5 shipping charge on them and starting them out priced low

Thanks again guys, I may also take pictures to go along with the list so you guys know what's in the boxes too. I'll probably start with what I have at home first. When I get that done, I'll post in the sales forum, but I need to warn you guys, I don't have a PayPal account. Before I forget, what does it normally cost to snail mail model kits in singles and multiples?

Looks good, but are missing the rear driveshaft?

Here's a taste of what I have left in storage, not including what's at home I'm thinking I want to get rid of as much as possible except the 1/8 scale Revell, 1/12 Revell, and 1/16 AMT/MPC kits that I have. I don't as of yet have a list made up and my last one was lost to a hard drive crash some years ago on another computer. Next chance I get, I'll go make another. Thanks for the advice guys

I'm seriously thinking about selling off as many of my incomplete, started, and un built models that I can for space constraints (storage area fees are getting too expensive). Do model clubs let non-members bring in their kits to get see if any of the club members are interested in buying them?

I'm digging it! IIRC those tires are off a snap together that AMT/ERTL sold for a while.

Looks good without the boy racer junk on it!

Anybody else remember seeing that picture in Hot Rod Magazine after that car was restored years ago?

I love it, especially since you narrowed the bed. I'm digging the duallys, but why not dual, white walled Cheater slicks while you're at it!

Real, with out a doubt!

I remember reading an article about a decade ago in SAE by Terry Jesse about a kustomized Buick model he built and painted with Pactra RC Lacquers. With the color combo he used it ended up with a bit of a flip flop effect when it wasn't a muddy brown or purple (It's been a while since I read it). I remember him saying that they were either candys and/or pearls from Pactra and that he called the combo Munster Pearl. I'd appreciate it if anybody's memory is better than mine is on the topic.

You thought she looked a little overdressed too, huh Have you guys noticed all the commercials on TV that seem to have 70's era vans in them?

You have to run Moons or Baby Moons on a car like that, Rallye's just look wrong on a Tri-5 Chevy to begin with and would be even worse on this one.

Dang, wish I'd had a chance to at least look at it before we sold out of that issue, sounds like a neat article!
