  1. I've thought about that too, although if I do decided to try and find the wagon, I might do something along those lines and get rid of the headlight lumps too.
  2. It does, but I would be ok with a resin repop if available.
  3. Does somebody make an earlier Pacer hood and grill vs what the recent reissue has with it? I wouldn't mind back dating that part of the car if possible.
  4. Been picking up Revell kits I'm interested in as I find them, so far bought one of the Foose F-100 kits (may do a second), then a second Foose Caddy, second Lincoln Futura (for less than $20 w/tax!), another prepainted ZL1 for another donor kit (mainly drivetrain and seats, it does come with a LS-A and 6L80E after all!), and one of the Jeep Honcho kits.
  5. Saw an incredibly clean, white over metallic blue '53 Chevy 2dr post.
  6. I take it you're near Bloomingale then Nick?
  7. Got a laugh out of this too.
  8. Didn't please me, per say, did make me LOL though!
  9. I felt that was stupid at the time too, filling up today and seeing Regular at $2.95/gal reminded me of that. Luckily, I live less than 4mi from work now and my 200 doesn't gave to use gasoline and was able to top off with E85 at $2.17/gal. Just happy I don't have to run Premium, same Speedway with the above pricing was also selling 93 for $3.65/gal and diesel for $2.89/gal.
  10. That would explain why the car looks off then, I knew about the bags, but not the openings!
  11. What kills me though, it's GLOSS clear, at least put a flat clear on it.
  12. There was a new IMC that had a couple old JoHan kits that they were selling, no clue what happened to them though.
  13. Reminds me of this Chopped early Ford I saw at a local cruise night several years ago, badly boogered weld, gaps between welded panels were there should have been welds holding the roof on, and then there is the rust...........to quote Marty Pascel (Rob Schnieder in Down Periscope) "I feel I need a tetnus shot just from looking at it. The only thing holding her together, are the bird droppings sir."
  14. I still have the '08 issue of this kit and know exactly where it's at, keep looking at it thinking I need to grab it and start doing something with it again.
  15. I thought that was pretty good too.
  16. After Daimler got done with their pillaging of the company.
  17. In many cases, beer holder is far more accurate......likely here in particular.
  18. With thr success of places like Welder-Up Garage, yes.
  19. Sure there is, but this is a family friendly forum
  20. While I'm aware that I am resurrecting the dead here, does anybody know if there is a Jeep 4.0l I-6 in 1/25 scale? Don't care if it is resin or 3d printed, just a good rendition of it. I have the Pacer kit with the 258, which is related, but would rather have something more along the lines of the EFI equipped 4.0l instead. Tamiya had a 1/24 YJ Wrangler with a 4.0l, but those appear to be discontinued and pricey right now.
  21. Finally was able to get the interior pics to load, need to start attacking things with my new Dremel to make the back seat fit.......good thing the weekend is about here!
  22. That's sweet looking!
  23. It's new, 2017 or 2018 is the first year here in the US. Just reminded me thought, saw one of the new Bentley SUVs a couple weeks back.
  24. To be honest, the front bumper on the turbo 4 1LE cars look better, the bumper cover flows across the front where that black bar is and better separates the top and bottom grills, kinda like the SRT and Scat Pack Chargers vs the SXT and R/T bumpers.
