  1. These are from the net. No camera. It is an Arcimoto. the one I saw had fabric on bottom and plastic windows.
  2. Hi, a couple of days ago, I went to my local store. They had only about 8 kits and no Spray cans. My wife and I went to another store and they only had 1 kit and again, no spray paint. are they discontinued? As a side note, walmart had all their spray paint (Krylon) locked up behind glass. A lady said they had to do that in different parts of store Lego,bb guns,pet flea stuff, etc...
  3. Hi everyone, I got the Muldowney Funny car and was wondering which yellow spray would match. Thanks a lot, George
  4. Hi Michelle, nice build on this Bird. I was the proud owner of one in the "70s. Actually, my mom bought it as the insurance was to much if I bought it. It was orange i color and black interior. It had a 440ci with three two barrels. Six barrel, not Six Pack. It was a daily driver and we had it for 8 years and put 128k miles on it. It was stolen out of our driveway, never recovered. Your build has been done very nice. How long have you been doing models, and how old are you. If you are young, your skills are well beyond your years. Thanks, George
  5. Hi Ken, welcome to the madhouse !!! I live in South Asheville ( Arden) and enjoy the forum very much. Where in NC are you? George
  6. Hi, that looks great !! where did you find it? Link? Thanks, George
  7. Hi, yes, I will post pics when I clean some up. Also, I will post some with the dust. He won some awards in the Northeast. His name is Neal Weber. He served in the Air Force and worked in some missile silos where he fell and broke his neck. He did recover, although his movement was limited and had a stiff neck and back. Great guy and fun to talk to !! His stories were at times scary an to what went on in the sixties. Again, thanks to all !! George
  8. Thanks to everyone!! I will try all suggestions and any that come my way. George
  9. Hi everyone, I have inherited about 50 old car models from a neighbor. They are all built. They were kept in his garage for years and have about 20 layers of dust on them. HAHA !!! I have thought of using a damp brush on them. Can anyone suggest another method of cleaning them up. They were built in the 60's and 70's using a brush and a lot of polishing on the bodies. They are shinier than I can get with spraying. Thanks, George
  10. Hi, my first time with Funny Cars was at Miami-Hollywood Speedway Park. It is now defunct. Making way for condos. Anyway, it was between Terry's Seaton Super Shaker and another car with an Allison engine. The night did not last long as the Allison made a run and tore up the Asphalt with two ruts all the way down the strip. They had to close the strip and we spent the rest of the night in the pits. I was hooked from then on. I don't know the name of the Allison car. Top say it was impressive was an understatement !!!
  11. Hi, I am trying to build a couple of WWII aircraft. The interior cockpit is this color. I have done a search and some look like a slightly green yellow and some look like a green color. What is correct? Thanks a lot, George
  12. Hi, any help from anyone?? Are there any Top fuel decals out there? Slixx only has a couple. George
  13. Hi everyone, I have a sealed Budweiser Top fueler. I would like to build a fueler other than Kennys. Anyone know of anyone making these? Thanks, George
  14. Repeating TV commercials!!! I know the Marketing that if you see a commercial more than once, you are more likely to remember the ad. I just find it annoying to have to see the same one 2 or even 3 times in a row. The on that is most prevalent is the one by AT&T with Lily on the plane. See, it works !!! There are others and they are just as bad. Anyone finds this bad??
  15. Hi everyone, I am trying to get into F1 building. I am also finding it very hard to find newer kits that don't cost the price of a real one. I have not done much resin at all. Any help??? Thanks, George
  16. When I put in your sellers id, I get some railroad items. Is that you?
  17. Hi everyone, I am more sad than irked. I looked forward to seeing new posts on the laugh thread. It saddens me that a few people that can't follow the rules takes the fun and pleasure from the rest of us. my suggestion if you unlock the thread is to make it clear to everyone that posts will be deleted if found to be against the rules. The poster will be told why it is bad. They should be given a certain amount of violations and told where they stand. If they don't comply, then ban them from forum. Then, a few bad apples don't spoil it for everyone. I don't care who it is or how many posts they have. What are your thoughts, mods? Just my 2 cents worth. George Bluhm
  18. The worst car I had was a 77 Grand Prix. Bought it used. Ran fine for a year or so, then started having problems. It would just stop running while driving it. I was on I-95 in Miami and it just stopped. Luckly, I was in the right lane and able to get it off. Had it towed to a dealer. They took off the gas tank and checked the fuel lines and electrical. They could not find a cause. I drove it to a Dodge dealer and got a great deal on a Charger 2.2 Demo. Ran it for 22 years and over 155K miles on it. What a great little car.
  19. Hi Michael, make sure to clear your camera pics. Your going to need the space. Please take a lot of pics for us to see. It has a ton of great cars to shoot. I went there a long time ago with a film camera (before digital) and ran out of film. 7 rolls of 36 exp. Most of all, enjoy it. George
