  1. Nice.
  2. Very nice! Excellent foil artistry.
  3. Beautiful.
  4. Nice. It would look even better had you painted the underside of the interior tub so you did not have bare white plastic showing around the transmission. Something to consider next time.
  5. Good job.
  6. Cool.
  7. Nice work. The headlamps are the only real turn-off. Absent that, it's a very creditable model. I love the color ... but that's in part due to the fact that my 1:1 is that color! PS: I agree with Harry ... nice, refreshing attitude toward constructive criticism and suggestions! Welcome.
  8. Ditto ~ all of the above!
  9. Real. But then, does Photoshop count as 'real' or 'model?'

  12. OMG! WHAT are they teaching her??? What a nice dad, you are. Keeping daughter's creatures for her!
  13. And, it had steelies with dogdish caps. I'll take the co-star ... Lisa Eilbacher ... oh, wait a minute. She's almost as old as I am. Never mind.
  14. Is that because you're the editor and the copy you got was the final galley for proofing? Or are you talking about receiving a subscription issue through normal channels? In which case, apparently yours was the only one shipped. Wonder what's up with that? Did the Wisconsin mafia hi-jack the Golden Bell distribution truck on its way to the post office?
  15. Looking gooder!
  16. Nice one, Raoul.
  17. Wow! Spectacular build, Harry. But, did you wire and plumb the engine?
  18. Another nice one, Raoul.
  19. You got that right! It actually made a miniscule improvement in performance because it enabled more air flow. But the biggest factor was the sound. It scared the beejeezus out of the Harry Highschool Street Racers and Boulevard Daredevils! Contributed greatly to the legend of the Mopar Monster Pursuit Cars.... and we all loved to hear that noise!!! Secret Sidebar: I ran public safety for the Pikes Peak International Hillclimb for many years. These Monacos/Furys ('77 to '78) were my favorite ride. Our fleet manager was an old hot rodder and roundy-round racer. He always 'tweaked up' the fastest one in the fleet for me ... especially for use on Pikes Peak during race week. That included a flipped air cleaner cover and daily filter changes. You haven't lived until you've roared up the dirt road mountain, 5,000 foot elevation change in 12.5 miles with 156 turns and no guardrails. The roar of the dual exhausts and that unmuffled four barrel ... well, probably the only time you'd see/hear the general public cheer a full-tilt hot run by a Sheriff's road patrol car.
  20. Looking good, Mark!! Eager to see this one progress.
