Source for Aftermarket Tires and Wheels
89AKurt replied to Miatatom's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
All I want are the Pirelli CINTURATOâ„¢ CN36 found in the Fujimi Ferrari Daytona kit. Having one kit without tires is enough. -

Small irk..... heard the iPhone ring tone, I was home looking around for the phone, then the radio ad said it was a Public Service Announcement, about distracted driving. Freaking brilliant, you just made everyone driving look around for their phone. It was beautiful today, hiked around the woods in just a t-shirt but with sweats on. ?

Mercedes Outlaws & Hot Rods
89AKurt replied to 89AKurt's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I saw in another topic about plug wire size, a raging argument about how we Americans are dissing everyone else in the world by not referring to metric sizes. Same thing with car culture, different continents, the only difference is which way the car was sent on a ship, which is why Mercedes cost more to begin with here, they are still the same body, engine, interior, the exception is our Federal government mandated battering ram bumpers, smog equipment that choked the engine, and crappy headlights. Still are mass produced cars. Some would say they are poor quality, how many 600 SELs with the dual pane windows and V12 engines do you see on the road nowadays? I'm not a fan of the rubber band tires on wagon wheels myself, the Donk look is...... dumb. (had to catch myself) Euro VW Golfs get the extreme "stance" like the JDM "ricers" (I'm on my third Honda Civic, '77, '87, '16 so I can say that). I'm digging what Hoonigan is doing to a Rolls Royce, those cars lost desirability and value because they self destruct (like most cars come to think of it). Dealer sticker price is irrelevant for this topic. If you don't like what you see here, move along. Perhaps this turns you on:- 130 replies

Completed builds for 2021

Super impressed! -
Those others were taken when one rationed film, and Al Gore hadn't invented the interwebs yet. ?

Maybe we should contact GSL to get clarification on the rules (or if someone on this forum is part of GSL and knows Gustavson). I could be disqualified since my plan is to use only the chassis and wheels, with a different kit for the hood, doors, fenders, plus a totally scratch-built "body" for the back. I love your idea, club cabs are a popular customization for any era. I'm gonna take a break, and steal ideas from you. ?

Hasegawa Toyota 1600GT.
89AKurt replied to PatW's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
I assume that's an old kit, so bummer about the decals. The shine is better than what I have trouble accomplishing. I would wet-sand it, and make it look like a resurrected barn find. Otherwise it looks fine, just park it close to the other cars on display. -

The 2022 Cannonball Run Year of Birth Build Thread
89AKurt replied to disconovaman's topic in Community Builds
I was talking about this, and my clogged memory released the fact I have a kit that should qualify, that has a possibility of completion. Might as well add me to the list, '61 190SL Restorod. Something like this: -

Cool! If I had the ambition (money plus time plus garage) would like to create a Coupe. I grew up with the '61 with gas engine.- 130 replies

Question: best way to mask interiors for painting?
89AKurt replied to customline's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
Meh, paint the white and use a decal, but none exist for that pattern. Looks like a Porsche 928. I know this isn't a good example for the topic, but the decal does add another "color".
