    green go camaro

    Nice.
  4. Very nice!
  5. A question, frankly, with no real answer.
  6. Very interesting concept. I like the slot car's hood a lot more than the severe ventilation gap in the 1/25 car's hood. Nice work.
  7. Excellent job(s), Mark!!
  8. One other thought, regarding scaling the building: In those days, construction materials were more regional or "local" than today, usually coming from a small, local manufacturer. Even if the building you're modeling no longer exists, you would likely find other old buildings from the same era in the area. If you still have those contacts back home, ask somebody to look around for some of those concrete blocks and get measurements. Then, you can accurately scale the entire building.
  9. In that era, the "basement" would probably have a rear staircase entry from outside, with hinged wood cover. I agree it appears that both side walls will be the same, with same window placement, and the front and rear walls of the upper story will be the same, with same window placement. Houses and buildings tended to be very symmetrical in that era. Great project!
  10. Good looking model. To my eyes, the top shape looks a little awkward, but it is custom!
  11. With Revell and Moebius hitting them out of the park on new kits, and Revell and Round2 scoring big with great reissues, and the awesome customer service of Revell and Moebius, is there any question that this is the newest, greatest Golden Era of the Auto Modeling Hobby???
  12. Places to go for help: 1) Doctor 2) Clergy 3) Dear Abby 4) Ann Landers 5) Not us Plastiholics
  13. Sad news; sorry to hear. I also enjoyed Tom's builds and posts. He sure had a tough time this past year. Condolences to his family and friends. Godspeed, Tom. Rest comfortably.
  14. Rare option.
  15. Nice job!!
  16. Excellent! (I have no idea how I missed this before, but I'm glad Kevin brought it up again.)
  17. That's some pretty volatile Drano!
  18. That CHP Camaro was a farce. It had stupid, grossly oversized IMSA-like pontoon fairings on all four fenders. Molded in, not glue-on (or delete). You could not build that kit stock, like a real CHP Camaro. The contents did not resemble the box-art. It was a waste of plastic.
  19. Oh, wow, that's NICE!! Great concept and great execution!
