  1. Ok, Figured out the picture problem! The Challenger I sprayed with de-canned Testor's "Plumb Crazy" purple enamel. When I put the clear, (Rustoleum) enamel to it , it "peeled" like crazy. Had to wipe it down with Acetone. (Purple Power won't touch it with clear coat on it. ). Have to figure out what went wrong. Meanwhile , put it up for now ,while it's still in one piece until later. On to #2, 1962 T-bird Picture 1, Peeled Picture 2) Won't fit in Acetone can (LOL) Picture 3) Stripped back down
  2. Oops................ Found out the problem! It's that I'm dumb as a bag of rocks! Just needed to "resize". My bad Thanks to everyone for the help (I'm just old is all)
  3. What I do is download them from my phone to computer, click on them to "make copy" , paste that to desktop. I've tried both, 1) To 'Drag and Drop. 2) to download them using the underlined "choose files". neither one will work. Before Windows ten and chrome , I use to just use "Choose Files" with no problem
  4. Not changing from Chrome. Anyone know how to post pictures with chrome???
  5. I've got Chrome! This is not a good thing huh? Also from my computer to forum *help*
  6. Ok, been downloading pictures just fine, but, I had to install Windows 10 and now I can't download now. Anybody know why? I'm old and computer dumb. All help would be appreciated!
  7. What is going on? Have to get back yo ya'll. Got a photo problem
  8. Off Ebay! Had to have it. Wallet said "no". Told it to shut it's Commie mouth and bought it anyways!
  9. very nice. clean. Tiger doesn't to be "dressed up" any. Good job!
  10. Thanks guys!
  11. Old one from 1980s-1990s. Before internet and aftermarket parts . Total box stock.
  12. Got to admit, the trunk key is one of the best ideas I've ever seen! Kudos!
  13. They would look good on a NASCAR build, huh?
  14. Nice! Like it! Super job!
  15. Got this off Ebay in an auction. Didn't think I'd get for what I bid, but there it is!
  16. That's ok. I'm just trying different things. I hope to , one day, get to the point of making it 1:1 correct. Right now , it's just getting use to everything
  17. That's what I would want it for. Make sure everything is right before final assembly/paint. Thanks!
  18. Heard that you can use white glue, (Elmers), as a temporary holder. Anybody try this? Work good? leave any residue? Thoughts?
  19. Snake, Great tutorial. Thanks for taking the time and effort to share. I appreciate it.
  20. The stem wire is on the "soft" side. Not like solder, or near as stiff as a paper clip. They're hard to work with. I forgot to mention, you can use a pair of needle-nose pliers to bend with, just takes practice to get the loops right. I know, I'm still trying to get them right
  21. I'm not trying to be "factory " correct. Just hinging doors and trunks. Maybe , later, when I get better , I can try to male them 1:1. Right now I'm just building and learning. Seen your work Bill, I'm no where near your ability at this time, but, then again, I just got back into the hobby about a year ago. Trying different things, paints, airbrushes, techniques. Got along way to go , just sharing what I have learned because it was asked of me
  22. Had to post this. Fireball carburetors compared to the ones in the kits. Amazing
  23. Darn, you're good! LOL.
  24. Looks great, but I lose clarity by the time I get to the final paint coat. Is this the way it should look?
