  1. I have to go with real on this one!!!! Thank you Harry for doing a game I have the time to play!!!!
  2. I have not had a problem with USPS.In fact,I recently sold some art prints and the box was mailed on Monday.the expected delivery was Friday.The package got there on Wednesday!!!! In a company as large as they are,handling as many products as they do,it would not be reasonable to not expect some glitches. I would guess that you just got caught up n the numbers and it was your time to see some glitches.
  3. Like many here,I got started very young.I don't remember how I started building.I would go to the shopping center and there were several stores that carried models.There was a store named Earl's Hardware that was more of a general store.They always had a bunch of models,cars,planes,armor,and ships.I built them all!!! Of course,that was when I did a model in a couple of days from start to end.Now it takes a couple of months or longer.I would go to Orange Blossom Hobbies to get kits and supplies,and,of course,K-mart. I remember building a bunch of 1/16 scale drag cars.I had to take a break for some time due to life events. I got back into the hobby about 15 years ago and found my LOVE of the hobby again.I enjoy all the resources we have now,including the best one,this forum. I really feel that this place has helped my skills get better.
  4. I have had great luck with the USPS.No I do not work for them. I sold some art prints this weekend.He paid on Monday,I shipped Tuesday and it said expected delivery was Friday. He got it Wed,was surprised it got there so quick and gave me great feedback. I have had more trouble with UPS than anyone.
  5. I am interested in the Grove car.IIRC there was an issue with the Gas Ronda and Blue Max Mustangs with the wheelbase of the chassis in relation to the body.Does anyone have the new kit and have they corrected this????
  6. Harry,Thanks for another ROM!!!! :) I am going with model on this one.The top and the door jams look off to me.
  7. Hi Rich,Those carbs look very nice,but,they look a little big to my eye.Of course,I am an OF and can't see anyway!!! :lol:
  8. Hi Kevin,I have sold on E-Bay for a few years now.I have shipped to Sweden,Germany,Australia,and the Philippines.I was able to help a guy in Australia get some kits he wanted.Everything worked GREAT!!!! Go by his feedback rating and number.Use customs number for tracking.It doesn't get the package to his door,but it shows you sent it and when. I love shipping to other countries to help out fellow modelers.I charge only what it costs me and it has been close.I have had to eat a few dollars once or twice,but,it was my fault for not being accurate in shipping info. Trust him and maybe you will get a friend. George
  9. I agree 1000%.I really enjoy this forum and have learned quite a bit.I feel that my models are a lot better from the tips and info from here. A GREAT big THANK YOU GREGG for this.

  21. Hi guys, my wife gave me one of the '68 Hemi Darts for X-mas.I would love to do Butch Leal's 1968 Dart.I just found the decals and I thought it was red and white.It said it was orange and white and suggested GO Mango for the color. I would like to know from the experts out there,what rattle can would be correct or closest to the right color??? Thanks in advance, George Bluhm
