Thank you very much! Took it to the monthly model meeting, where I'm the only car builder, got home and found my order from BNA Model World arrived! ~happy dance icon missing~ Plan to finish tomorrow.

This might win for tiniest model parts of the month, lug nuts, from BNA Model World. Looking forward to putting these on Porndy, and call that done. Also got KA Models photo-etch for the Hasegawa 250TR.

The BMW Nazca has gold-mirror glass, some other show cars have the coating. Think of space suit visor. I've seen a video of a guy brushing on a paint, that turned into a mirror finish on a motorcycle gas tank, but didn't take note of what that paint is. But that was on a solid surface, not clear for a window. Is there something that would create that look, short of asking Oakley sunglasses to put parts into their system?

Well done street rod! I like the license plate.

that's nitrate-free

hold my beer,

Now there are Audi Quattro Sport S1 - gravel rims going to be available through Spot Model. I have also wanted to do Bobby Unser's Pikes Peak car, seen the decals are coming. That might be used on the Profil model.

Cost of inflation.

Looks great! The nice thing about controlling the obsessive compulsive anal retentive thing (I suffer too), actually finish something.

If I had a dollar, for every time I heard that sort of story, could buy me a promo! '55 Chevy Cameo for me. Refreshing to see such a classic. Yanking the seats is a huge improvement. I have never acquired a promo, didn't know about the acetate shrinking issue. Look forward to seeing this finished!

I never knew before this topic was posted!

True. I would eliminate the sprocket teeth under the chain.

eBay score, from England. Thanks to this forum, and the internet in general, more cool stuff!

Welcome! I've attended several Craig Hewitt contests. I also flew Estes rockets! The biggest is the Saturn 1B, that uses 4 engines, never launched. Have what's left of the Pershing that was converted to use Flight Systems F engines. Last launch the nose angered into the ground. That's why I prefer static models. Live north of you!

Received the eBay order today! I'm going to post on Fakebook Marketplace, thus the setup for the picture. Will also post in the Trade department. I high-graded out the tiniest chain for my bicycle project.

Old lady not letting me in when lanes merge, happens often in Prescott. I tailgated until she turned into Costco, when she flips me off. She had one of these plates:

Looks good from here! And I'm guilty of buying that too, but "regular" version. Thumbs up for building it!

For some reason, I could not reply in a previous message again, but I could send you a new one.

FYI: Can't send messages, says and error and goes to a completely different looking page.

Due to mission creep, added more details, back to 99% complete. Lug nuts are in transit..... Someone on Facebook tracked down the Big Bend Open Road Race logo for me, I got it reduced to assumed size, printed onto Testors decal paper, sprayed with Krylon artist archival flat clear lacquer. If anyone wants some, let me know! cobraman helped me out with race numbers, thank you! I used the Indy driver's helmet, removed the face, hollowed out a little, used up the last of the nail 'polish', used the Indy pinstripe decals which happen to look like double yellow lines, added chin strap. I'm cropping side shots, makes it look a mile long.
