  2. ... Tower Hobby is my LHS well B4 wally world..I did get a Boss 429 at WW for 9.97
  3. How about that caddy motor leftover from the flathead conversion on revells 49 Merc??
  4. Lots of help guys!!!Thanx!! I found my Ronco gets up to 135 by itself. I made a "dimmer box" and dropped the voltage down so my temp is about 105 Three hours later and the lacquer smells dry..and even sanded correctly!! This is a better tool than my airbrushes!!! WHAT A GREAT FORUM!!!! Mike McElligott
  5. I think a trip to Michaels is in order!! Great info guys!!!
  6. I just scored 2 Ford 427 parts packs on evil bay for 9.95 inc shipping Found the links in this forum.As for other sources check out Ross Gibson Engines Great quality doesn't come cheap though! Comp Resin also sells wheels, slicks, blowers etc..through many dealers. I use Slixx.
  7. My sister only models dollhouses and I only model cars. Our exchange of info is just like on the forums except she shoots LATEX paints!!!
  8. Is this a repop of the boss 429??? Any Pros or Cons on the boss 429?? or a link??
  9. Then that stuff must be DM flocking???
  10. Also you can "stretch or shrink" the wheelbase as needed to get the right fit/look...Great tutorial Patrol 52!
  11. I just ordered 2 427's from that site....can't wait to get em!!
  12. I found this due to HarryP and the ROM nonsense on the "other" forum..... AND I'M GLAD I DID!! (now will you make it easier harry???)
  13. Yep that is it. I keep this outside in my garage so it's kept between 80 and 90 degrees and if shot thin does not fill in too much detail. I can only find the 235 in grey
  14. Michaels craft store carrys a plastikote sandable primer white or grey for around 4.00 per can. It's lacquer and seems to be the same as 235
  15. Thanx, but my LHS is past a joke...where can I subscribe??
  16. I just found THIS forum. Now where can I find the mag?????
  17. no plate holes in the bumper...model
  18. Just got a ronco dehydrator..convection type A couple of questions: 1. what should I hold the freshly painted body on? I've read that a tensioned metal stand could cause warpage 2. As it does not have a thermostat (I don't have a thermometer) how should I vent the top to keep temp between 100 and 110? I primarily shoot lacquers and some future through the airbrush. Any tips would be great..thanx in advance Mike
