  1. Looks good but it will be at it's best when you weather it and fill it with trash.
  2. Great build and display. Those mini bombers create a forced perspective.πŸ‘
  3. Those are some excellent builds there. Hard to tell that they're not 1:1.
  4. I used to live on L.I. I left it in '92 when I could no longer find a job there. I don't think LIARS was around then plus I was more into racing 1/8 scale R/C cars then. I don't miss living there any more. Although I really didn't want to leave it but I didn't wan to stay unemployed.
  5. Very nice build.πŸ‘
  6. I like the before and after. Looks like you have a photo booth like I have too.
  7. Great idea! I clicked on the eBay link. It's real cheap too. The 20 piece set is only $6.95 and free shipping.
  8. I had that happen too.
  9. I loved that show when I was a kid. It's on Tubi TV if you want to see it again.
  10. It's good to find someone else that also likes that stuff. πŸ‘ Anyway he's on Frank Zappa's "The Gumbo Variations" (posted earlier) as a guest musician. I never knew about his group either. I was at an antique flea market last week and one of the vendors there was playing an LP of "Cup Full of Dreams" and I recognized that style. His name is Don "Sugar Cane" Harris. He's played together with other musicians too. He's also played with Jean Luc Ponty who has also played with Zappa. I found about 7 of his albums on YouTube. Go listen to Frank Zappa's "The Gumbo Variations" too. it's from the "Hot Rat's" album. In fact you should listen to the whole album, it's great too! You'll love it. Just search for Sugar Cane Harris there. I downloaded all the audio and put the albums together on my PC. I looked up his discography to correctly order the songs and used my mp3tag software to do it so I can listen to them on my mp3 player.
  11. I belong to another ACME (Atlanta Car Model Enthusiasts) too.
  12. I use Easy Off oven cleaner. It’s removed chrome for me in 1/2 hour.
  13. The Post Office. They were supposed to deliver my new camera tripod from Amazon today. Then I check the tracking and it says it's on hold. So I called the post office and dealt with the robomenu until I finally got to speak to someone after being on hold for 20 minutes. She said my address didn't scan correctly like there was something wrong with it only there was nothing wrong with it. While I was on the phone with here I received another text tracking update that said I would get it by 9PM today. The original tracking said from 2:15 to 5:15 today. They managed to deliver mail to my mailbox but not my tripod from Amazon. Maybe I'll get it tomorrow I hope.
  14. Dogs, ya' just gotta' love them! Here's our cute little guy. His name is Louie. This is my sister's dog that dies about 6 months ago of heart failure. He was 11 1/2. His name was Elwood and is a Labradoodle.
  15. I built this around 2001. It's painted with Testors Orange Pearl over a brass or copper base coat. The photos are new.
  16. It looks very good but it doesn't look like it has any "glass" in it.
  17. WOW! It looks really good, paint is great!πŸ‘
