I didn't Notice anything overly Negative. However it appears that Harry's Comment may have been taken as a Snide remark about the religious beliefs of the Hobby Lobby organization. Especially with the Sly Emoticon that was used. Although I am sure that was not the Intent. Given Harry's position as a monitor. Who should Know better than to Start any kind of problem, or would Know how easily a problem gets started.

To me the Rustoleum, and Krylon brands, come out to heavy.Therefore obscuring the details. Duplicolor is a better choice for Models,because it goes on thinner.dries faster, and is very forgiving.

There is some very good chrome plating in this kit. I mean very tough to remove, I have had a few parts in the Purple Pond for 24 hours, with No significant plating removal at all.

Micro mark has a hole punch device that might help you its a little pricey .However a very precise tool. You could also take small cuts with an Exacto, start off with cutting it square, then attacking the corners to make it octagon, finally slicing the little bit leftover until its rounded. On the one I did. I put them in the water, slid them in place, blotted them dry, then add a small amount of Epoxy to glass them over.

I used Martin Senour rust colored laquer primer. Over the entire body, and hood.I had no crazing.

I got one on Friday. The body is molded very thinly therefore is quite delicate, the plastic is softer than regular IMO.the entire kit appears to be very nice. However I am curious to see how it will react,with automotive primer,and paint.

Neat do you have more?

Michaels craft stores sell Badger airbrushes, use the coupon and you will get a great deal

I spray about that far away when using spray cans, with steady passes. If you get the paint to lay down smooth enough, 3200 grit is good to start with.

or the Anti Union remarks

I would agree with the above statement, it looks like a spatter job. You cannot get close enough with a spray can or it will start to run. You Could be at least six inches away, and move a little slower, to give you just enough of heavy coverage on your final pass to make it smooth.

Terrible, nasty habit.

If Revell has a licensing issue with Grumpy,they could still do a reasonable facsimile,and call it Grouchy's Toy, then let the aftermarket handle the decals.

Good for that! They kind of have the same Issue with the Edelbrock Valve cover Script for the Ford Engines. Hopefully they can rectify that at some Point.

Good looking ride

With the rain around here, and 60% humidity it has been uncomfortable. However when the breeze blows through, and it's under 106 buddy it's Heavenly.

Very cool

Spent some quality time with new Grandson

It kinda Sucks that the PE Door handles for this, and the 71 Hemi Cuda are only for one side. It looks like it could be easy to have that corrected, Instead of having to BMF the handles. Great progress so far on this car, it is really shaping up to be a looker.

Cool Project. I have not seen one in stock form, other than in pictures.

Although you don't need to pull over on the divided roadway. I still move over when traveling in the opposite direction.Because you just never know when that fire truck,may need to jump the curb and drive on the opposite side.

The reason I would be asking that is, The California Kid I remember was from 1973 with Steel wheels, Smooth caps, and Beauty rings. The later version with the wheels pictured. I consider the California Teenager/Young Adult. I don't know Why they ever updated the car? But thats just my 2 cents.

Sorry I don't like it, I love it. Outstanding work.

And Clint Eastwood directing...well he doesn't just take on any old movie. He Might He just Unloaded One Wife, and is with probably with what Might Be his Last wife.
