  1. Hi. I'd like to try 'foil-casting'. But what brand, etc. to use? Thanks.
  2. Hi ACE garage guy.  Please don't act like a troll, which I feel like you are doing.  As I explained to others, my skills, frankly, are not at your acceptable level, I think.  If you can't help ME, get out of my way.  Very coy, referring to me as the OP.   I am both building a '65 Dodge AWB, and a T.F. engine from Gibson.  And, as I've asked others, don't we all build for different reasons?.  I love building model cars and I think this Forum is the greatest thing since sliced bread, if you don't mind the comparison.  I don't know about you, but I've got a whole lot of other important things going on in my life besides modeling.  How about you? Although,  I love seeing other people's amazing work on the "On The Bench" category.  I am glad others  devote so much time to building.  It is positively entertaining.  Call me a voyeur if you like.  Jeff Bolthouse, Grand Rapids, Michigan

      In ACE-Garageguy's posting, why wasn't "hell" deleted?  Are you guys the original members of the NNL?  Jeff

      Show me one post where I've ever said anything negative about you or your work. ONE. 

      Copy and paste. SHOW ME ONE. I will NOT accept being accused of something I just DID NOT DO.

      PROVE IT.

      Ace, I 'flipped out'.  No other way to say it.  So I am sorry.  Jeff

  3. Hello.  I am the OP in regards to the diameter of roll-cage tubing mentioned in the thread.  My skills are not the level where I NEED to know things like this.  We each build for different reasons, I think, don't you?  And I am not building a replica, although I have modified the chassis, especially the front chassis area.  Not only were the front-axle moved forward 10", it was moved down 4".  I have made this modifiication.  Thank you.  Jeff Bolthouse, Grand Rapids, Michigan.

  4. I must say, Mr. Reckner, you assume too much.  I am building both a '65 Dodge AWB, AND a Top Fuel engine from Gibson's.  You come off, to me, as both a Troll and a rivet- counter, which I am not.  We each have our own "building-philosophy".  I hope you don't mind me saying so.  Jeff Bolthouse, Grand Rapids, Michigan.  And I also must say, in a Post Script, my building skills are not at that level.

  5. I have a very nice kit of the '69 Hurst Olds.  Tell me about the Corvette kit?

  6. I have a v. good '69 Hurst Olds.  I like the T. Aston Martin and the Bug Eye.  Let me know.

  7. I'm pretty sure I have a stock '70 Super Bee chassis plate.  You just need that one piece?  I'd be interested in the Matador, the 100-6 lot, and/or the Ferrari Testarossa.

  8. I'm interested in the Viper ACR kit.  How complete is it?  I have v. good '69 Hurst Olds.

  9. I have a '69 Hurst Olds in very shape (as new).  Is the 356 Porsche built up?  Are all the parts there?  Thanks

      Sent you a PM.

  10. Hi Mike.  I am interested in the 1/32 R.R.; and the 1/32 '09 Cad.; also the 1/32 Packard.  Do you have anything else because I have a nice '69 Hurst Olds.  What kind of condition are these 3 kits in?  All parts there?  Thanks

  11. Hi Dave.  I have '69 Hurst Olds kit, in very good shape.  I am interested in the BMW; the TR7; and/or '37 Chev.  What will my Olds kit get me?

  12. I'm building (at least) 2 models at once; the AFX car and one of the Gibson (Sonny's) T.F. engines.
  13. Misha, you are an artist!

  14. Hello, Khils.  I'd like to buy the front bench seat.  I don't have much to trade.  Jeff (fiatboy)

  15. Can you make me a deal on the chassis and suspension?  Jeff

  16. Thank you very much. I shall check with Parts by Parks.
  17. I'd rather not use metal ones as I intend to shorten them. Thanks
  18. I have The Judge funny car 1/24. But I'd like to trade for the whole body, that's the problem you see!
  19. Is there an after market source for a deep sump oil pan? Don't want to buy a kit. Thanks
  20. I just love deep sump oil pans! I need one for the Ford SOHC engine I am putting in a '57 T-Bird. I am modifying a NASCAR chassis to put under it. Thanks.
  21. Well, I for one enjoyed this whole thread!LOL
  22. Thanks everyone for the responses.
  23. Can resin parts be briefly soaked in Simple Green, and then primed with laquer primer? Thanks
  24. Supercharged and Fuel injected. Not a Gibson, please.
