  1. To quote one of our most infamous presidentes always said, "It all depends on what your definition of 'use' is."
  2. ~Disclaimer~ I have no idea if this is what you're dealing with, but . . . Super Clean has a life. The more you use it, the less potent it is. If you used "leftover" CSC, it may have been used up. CSC and Easy-Off generally produce similar results (although E-O generates more obnoxious fumes than CSC), so I'm guessing it's not so much the Moebius chrome/process as it is the potency of your leftover CSC. ~Second Disclaimer~ Just thoughts. No disrespect meant for your CSC's virility or impotence.
  3. Awesome! I don't know how I missed it in 2010, but I'm glad I caught it now! Great design, great execution.
  4. ONLY 29 DAYS TO GO!!!
  5. Good job, Ray!
  6. A musical artist for certain. Sad to hear.
  7. Very, very nice, Keith! I, too, had a '79 Z28. Loved it.
  8. Nice, Aaron.
  9. Nicely put, Tom. I've been struggling with how to say it nicely enough to not be deemed snarky. But, yes. The proliferation of that beacon - unmodified - has been nails on my chalkboard for years.
  10. OJ forgot his knife was loaded.
  11. Well, since you already said it's not accurate ('not 100%' is a bit of an understatement), there's no need for comment. But, I always like to see people building emergency vehicles . . .
  12. Ahhhh, so there is some interest! LOL. Got busy. Sorry. Hey, all! Just in case there's not enough built-in diversion and distraction for the day, our venue has some new tricks up its sleeves! Opening soon - and open during DESERT SCALE CLASSIC - is a brand new, 1/3 mile (outdoor) Rusty Wallace Karting Experience gokart track . . . with real, live, gasoline powered karts! So now, if shopping in the largest vendor swap meet isn't enough to entertain you during judging, or if the indoor electric karts (1/2 mile track) don't do it enough for you, or the clay indoor R/C track, or the slot car track, or the scale 1/4 mile slot car drag strip, or the arcade , or the NASCAR driving simulators, or the pool tables, or the boxing machines, or the snack bar, or the adult-beverage tap room, or the 8,000 square foot hobby shop, or . . . just visiting with your friends . . . well, if you can't find something to do . . . Be There! Saturday, April 9, 2016 -- DESERT SCALE CLASSIC MODEL CAR CHAMPIONSHIP AND SLOT CAR CONCOURS! 3401 W. GREENWAY ROAD, PHOENIX, AZ ~ At the SE corner of 35th Avenue and Greenway Road
  13. What pleased me today? A GREAT Goodguys weekend . . . and then . . . 14 hours of sleep overnight. Now, I'm ready for the week!
  14. Sounds GREAT! It would be even greater if they were to throw in a roof insert that would fit the 'hot rod' opening and contain the stock opening. Thus, one could have a choice between the stock opening or the larger, custom opening. A piece of flat plastic sheet can be used to replicate a filled, steel roof. Thus, three easy options! Just saying . . .
  15. 33 days away! Actually, the available parking will be a little less than last year. Big Announcement later today!
  16. Oh, I don't know . . . 12, maybe a dozen. Or, a Baker's Dozen Less One. Something like that.
  17. A great day at Goodguys!!
  18. Thanks for stopping by, Misha! Sorry I missed you, but the guys said they got a chance to visit with you and really enjoyed meeting you! We get a bunch of really top notch models - - about 200 this time; sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. But the important thing is . . . everybody has a great time! And, thanks for your kind words. Those are great pix. ~Danno
