You guys are missing the advantage of having your mechanic riding shotgun and adjusting the timing and carbs while you are flat out on the Pike's Peak Hill Climb.

The Revell version is a better kit, but you did a fine job with this MPC. Thanks for sharing it.

Welcome Kevin. There are a few 1/12 kits that are readily available. You can try places like Megahobby, Nobbylinc and Model Roundup if you are looking for a retailer.

Snow is expected in Florida next week. Can't wait for the stories to show up on the news.

I enjoyed looking at your photos throughout the year. Looking forward to seeing what 2018 brings.

Go to Unread Content and on the right side, just above the first unread post, there will be an area that says "Condensed Expanded" click on whichever you prefer.

You can start a new thread. You could also add a link to the old one at the beginning.

They do have great prices. They are also one of the slowest shippers (that is the trade-off). Most of my orders generally take 1-2 weeks to arrive and I am on the same coast.

It is 30' deep, enough room to work on my cars without being pushed right up against the tool boxes.

Since I know everyone was sitting on the edge of their seats, waiting for an update. All that is left to do for "Phase-1" is to get the gutters put on. Then start saving so I can get the electric service put in (transformer is several hundred feet away).

I have been slowly working on my second '68 Dart. I have had the body painted for some time and just couldn't get in the mood to work on it. I have some free time with the Holiday break, so figured I would start getting the rest of the parts painted. Not sure how others go about it but, I like to paint everything (except the body) at about the same time. Have all the parts ready for primer and paint. Going to spend the rest of the day wearing a respirator and surgical gloves.

Google "Workbench Plans" and see if you find anything you like. That is how I found the one I use. Built it for less than $100 (including a 4' light fixture).

I have seen quite a few cars run mid 9's at right around 150 mph. Some guys are quick off the line and others run 'em down right before the trap.

Yes, you can get rattle cans. Might not be able to for all colors, but they do offer it.

Unfortunately, I knew this was going to end badly when this thread got resurrected. For the last time -- a person can do whatever they want with there items. But or don't buy, the choice is yours. Stop complaining about it here. This has been going on for YEARS. Nothing is going to change, no matter how wrong you think it is. If I see any other comments in other threads, they will be be removed. Please do not make me ban folks for something as stupid and childish as this. This thread is locked.

Just got an order in earlier this week.

Some of you will notice that there are a lot of posts that have been removed. If you guys cannot get along, you may need to find another place to frequent.

I generally just fill out an order form and mail it off with a check. 3-4 weeks later I get a care package with some paint.

Some very cool cars. Thanks for sharing.

I have quick change connectors on my airbrushes. I can swap different airbrushes/guns in seconds. I got them from Amazon. You should be able to do a search and find what you are looking for. There are a lot of different sized connections, so you may need to also have an adapter to go along with the quick connect.

The same can be achieved by clicking or not clicking on a thread that has "My Year In Review" in the title. Folks already do not scroll down far enough to see all the sections the site has (I know this because of all the stuff that gets posted in "General" that clearly goes in other sections we already have setup). Imagine how much scrolling would be needed if we added every section that gets recommended. This is a minor problem inconvenience that happens for about 3-4 weeks a year, it does not justify any special treatment.

This has been a very difficult problem to pin down. It is intermittent, affects a small number of users, happens across all browsers and randomly fixes itself (for a little while at least). Dave is in contact with the software publisher trying to pin down the cause. We had hoped the software update would clear it up, but it did not. We are now at least on a version of the software that the publisher can help us troubleshoot.

There are a few folks that wait until the end of the year to post their builds. Up to you if you want to miss out on seeing a few nice models.

Get another realtor from the area to start helping you. When the first one finally sends photos, tell them you got tired of waiting and found someone else to help you.

This is what i found, it gives weight and thickness.
