  1. Does anyone have any info on when the Dyno Don car is supposed to come out. I built one way back when,messed it up,especially those decals. I want to try again,and do a better job.
  2. He is not married.Just living with his girlfriend. He moved here from NJ to take care of his sick mother. He moved her out of her bedroom to a smaller one and took over the house which he got for free when she passed away from Cancer.
  3. I have a neighbor next door that has a loud riding mower on a 1/4 acre lot. He is mowing his lawn every 3 days in North Carolina in February. He has no trees on his lot,but, will have to blow his yard after mowing. HOW STUPID !!! and irritating noise.
  4. Hi all, there is a gentleman that lives down the street. He is into Model Railroading now and wants to sell his layout. He used to build model cars a long time ago,always brush painting. His name is Neil Weber. his finishes are much better than I can do . He also hand painted the scripts and details on bodies. He won awards in shows when he lived in the NE. I have tried to get him to let me take pics,but,he is not interested.
  5. I joined and am looking forward to checking out the posts.
  6. I have used them over the years,and,they are a great company. Jack always answers e-mails quickly and is wonderful to buy from !! A+++++
  7. Here is a great article from NHRA about his career. https://www.nhra.com/news/2017/hall-fame-nhra-pro-stock-driver-bob-glidden-passes-away
  8. I agree with all of you. It was my fault that I didn't get them when I saw them. I was just upset that the Manager would not do anything. I would not think if they were marked all of the way down to $5.99,that they would go back to full retail. Oh well,my loss,and I know the lesson learned.
  9. Hi All, some time ago, I went into HL to look. There was a square display with some kits really marked down.There were a couple of Fuzz Busters on sale for $5.99 each. I know I should have gotten them then. I went back into store last week and they had 2 of the same kits in the Clearance corner of store.These did not have the sale stickers of $5.99 on them,just the regular retail. I picked them up and asked a salesperson if they were on sale. She got the Assistant Manager who said someone must have just put them there.After asking if he could do something,he said since they didn't have a sale sticker on them,he couldn't do anything. I asked if he could look them up and he said the paperwork has been sent in and again could do nothing. I think this is terrible customer service,and I haven't been in store since. I think my next e-mail should go to corporate.What do you all think?? George
  10. Why can't we all just build models?
  11. Good luck,Mark!! You will be in my prayers!!
  12. Thank you for the PM. Can you access his pictures from his computer or hosting site?
  13. I am so sorry to hear this. My condolences to his family. Are you able to access his beautiful Sunset and wildlife pics? Please PM me.
  14. Stan, There is a link in the link section that has a lot of instructions.Try there.You can also try the manufacturer website for parts request and try there.
  15. Chris, I can't get your video to play.It says it is unavailable.
  16. I have been having trouble with the back button for several weeks. I thought it was just me. Can the problem be fixed.
  17. Hi all you vinyl fans, my neighbor's mother passed away a few years ago. She loved all types of music. My neighbor is going thru the house and found 4 boxes of albums. She said there is a lot more there and will be bringing them home as time permits. Her mom enjoyed all kinds of music,Bluegrass,Rock and Roll,Christian, Folk,Southern Rock,Gospel,Show tunes,etc... You get the idea. I know a very little about values of old albums. I did have my favorites when I was young. I am 64 now,so,anything in the late 50's to mid 70's I love. Is there anything or anyone I should be on the lookout for??? I have first crack at them. As far as I know,they are 33's, maybe some 45's and 78's. She said they were all played and had Elvis,etc... Thanks,George
  18. Hi all, On my bench I have 3 kits going. MPC Night Stalker Vette,change from black to red. Melrose Missle, Great kit Trogen Horse Funny car,Tough kit to look good!! George
  19. Amy, can you give us a link to your E-bay,or 1 of the listings? Your dad was a Master Modeler,a true friend here on the forum and incredible inspiration to all of us!! George
  20. Thanks Sam,I will give it a try.
  21. Hi everyone,I got some new Purple Power at Advance and put some straight in a plastic container. I put in some parts to strip,a Vette body,interior,hood. They were all primed with Tamiya fine and shot with Tamiya red and Testors Beige. After leaving it overnight,the interior is coming off but the red is stuck fast and not coming off at all. Any ideas?? George
  22. Thanks for the link Bill. I just feel you should always be able to send it Ground, not Priority.
  23. Hi all, I am so upset at the Post office!!! I went to mail a matted painting. The package was about 28" X28" X2". At first he said it would be $15,which was OK.When he put in the dimensions he said it caused it to go Priority and there was a Balloon surcharge. I had no choice for ground and no surcharge. He said it would not let him send it Ground. What a RIPOFF!!!!! George
  24. Amy, I think Matt conveys my thoughts also. Harry will be missed by a great many people. From modelers here in the US,to many abroad. George
