  1. Absolutely perfect!
  2. Gorgeous color and a great, clean build!
  3. Perfect color combination!
  4. A very short-lived forum.
  5. Most times my floaters look like the Goodyear blimp!
  6. I used Pladti Kote primer years ago, then it disappeared from my regular buying places. I switched over to Duplicolor and haven't looked back. I normally shoot a couple light coats and then a couple heavier coverage coats. I spray the parts from all kinds of different directions, to keep down the chances of it streaking. Back in the days of yore, I used mostly TESTORS color paints with no primer at all. Never really had much problem, except for an occasional run when I sprayed it to heavily.
  7. Beautiful engine and transmission, Steve!
  8. I have severe floaters at times. Sometimes, I have to quit reading or working at the hobby bench until they quit. I have an appointment Thursday. I'll have them tell me what the name of my condition is, as I've forgotten. I was told it is a condition of aging. EDIT: I found what my floaters are called...Posterior Vitreous Detachment. Mention that to the eye doc and see what he says.
  9. In the category of "Wish I had my camera", I passed a small used car lot today that had a '65 Falcon Ranchero, '60 Imperial, '72 Riviera, '63 Nova, and some others I couldn't see well from the highway. Hopefully, I can get down that way again, soon, and take my camera with me! I also spied a gorgeous '65 Falcon Futura in a yard for sale. It was a bluish silver color with black interior and white accent in the side chrome trim. If only I had a few extra coins............
  10. Oh, I just LOVE how the stuff sticks to itself! (Didja notice the sarcastic tone in my post?) LoL
  11. Amazing build! A real "TOP SHELF" model!
  12. I think I got it.
  13. Fascinating project! I'm following this one!
  14. There are replacement tips available. I have a couple for the 1mm pen. When I get back to the hobby room, I'll try one, as my pen is doing the same thing as described above.
  15. That transmission looks great, too!
  16. Gonna be a great looking engine! My only question is....how old is that piece of foam? LoL
  17. I just finished reading an article about Wendell Scott. It seems in 1972, he ran a Monte Carlo in at least one race. ...the World 600 at Charlotte. If I can find that pic again, I'll post it.
  18. I'm glad to see this build. It looks great! I now know what mine has a chance to look like when I build it. I also have the Camaro counterpart. I always thought it was a cool concept.
  19. If I saw a 1971 Dodge pickup model kit sitting next to a 1971 Chevy pickup model kit at a hobby shop, I'd get the Dodge, but that's just me! LoL
  20. Henderson County is pretty close to Lawrence County. I've been here since '91.
  21. Southern Middle Tennessee, here.
  22. Even rain doesn't help much here in my part of Tennessee, cause after it quits, it seems the humidity gets even higher!
  23. Makes me wonder where 1/35 scale and 1/43 scale came from.
  24. HHAHAHA!!! I 'bout lost my coffee, right then!
