  1. Still haven’t arrived here in Virginia Beach, VA as of Christmas Day.
  2. Haven’t received mine in Virginia as of today. ☹️
  3. Looks like Chuck Boerner’s handiwork. Check him out on Facebook (Chuck’s 60’s-80’s drag racing decals). Quality workmanship.
  4. Try LPH 1320 Model products on Facebook. They make fantastic 1/25 and 1/16 drag racing parts. Top notch people!

  9. Getting back at the bench after knee surgery. My LHS didn’t /couldn’t get the MPC kit so I used the Garlits kit with the 392 chrysler motor from the Revell SWC Willy’s kit and Chuck B’s decals.
  10. Stephen - built one a long time ago and found the Testor’s Dark Blue enamel was the closest match at the time. Still looks pretty good from photos and the Facebook page.
  11. I’m using the Garlits kit with Chuck Boerner’s decals and the 392 from a Revell Willy’s kit.
  12. Got some bench time these past few weeks on the Royal Canadian Dragster. Chassis has been modified and painted metallic burgundy - started constructing a new fuel tank - chromed the rear end and seat - working on the Aurora 392 engine. Slow but making progress.
  13. Has anyone picked up the new MPC Tom McEwen FED kit and any comments? I know it’s a reboot of the Garlits kit but was curious what you think.
  14. Finished up in time for yesterday’s TAMS annual show. Best out of box for Straight Line.
  15. Check out Chuck Boerner on Facebook. He makes the best funny car & dragster decals out there both in 1/16 and 1/24 scale.
  16. Has anyone else had any problems logging into Round 2’s website? Every time I try to pull up their website I get a blank page.
  17. Do they work for the Revell 1/16 FED’s or are they too big? They look great if they would work.
  18. Has anyone used/ordered the 1/16 dragster front wheels from Shapeways, and if so, what size did you use? Looking for a recommendation for a FED build I’m working on and don’t know whether to use the 16” or the 19”. Thanx for your help.
  19. And this has to do with drag racing models how?????
  20. Lee, looking good so far. Let me know if you need some other kit pieces. I have a parts box for the funny cars and dragsters and may have extra parts if you need them.
  21. Chris, this is fantastic! Just keep plugging away at it, you’ll get there. I have to be the one to ask, how in the world do you work with something so small? My eyesight, fingers and patience just arn’t What they used to be. I use a magnifier, but it’s still okay at best. Keep it up, you inspire us all.
