  1. What does the LMP stand for? Lunar Module Project?
  2. Nice! Ollie's has been good to me too, I snagged three of this kit. One may be the Sox & Martin, but if your ragtop goes well I may copy your idea! Did your have the horribly bad slicks in it too? I opened one up and saw those, looks like it's time to buy some of the AMT Part Pack slicks
  3. Another beaut David, how many more do you have to drop on us, and what's on the bench?
  4. History in styrene, and well built too!
  5. Man, do you have the market cornered on obscure kits or what? This is he third I never knew existed before today, how many of these rarities do you have?
  6. This is another one I had never seen before today, wild!
  7. Another beauty David! Yeah, you could tell the drugs were prominent back then, some of the designs were definitely done under the influence of something other than oxygen!
  8. Jeez, that one huge exhaust pipe...tell me it's not a fart-can!
  9. Killer build David, you're dropping some beautiful work on us!
  10. Same here, I had never heard of this one before today. Awesome build of a very cool design! The only Tom Daniels kit I have is his California Street Vette, gotta break that one open one day and build it right this time!
  11. Man, another kit that's difficult to get looking good, and you swatted it outta the park!
  12. You built a super-clean model of a kit that gives most of us fits (Those doors!) and got the windows to work too? We've gotta spend some bench-time together someday, you have skills!
  13. I always hated building the "Showrod" type kits because I break the tiny parts so easily, but I love seeing 'em done by someone else! Great work!
  14. Man, that rusted-out hulk of a car is beautifully done, and the shiny one is just as sweet!
  15. Jason, that is awesome! We've gotta meet up one day so I can see this in person, I work in Wilmington!
  16. Beautiful work David, just beautiful!
  17. Great work Jason, between this, the Howlin' Wolf build and the Moonshiner, you show some incredibly high-end skills. No need to doubt yourself brother, you're good! Now I finally know where the chopped top I have in my parts stash came from, thanks Glenn! I've had it for years and had no idea what it came from, because I never bought this kit!
  18. Michael, I would not put a body with any kind of filler in a dehydrator if it's already finished. It will cause shrinking, I learned the hard way. I've thought about trying it before the filler has been sanded to pre-shrink it, but always forget until after I'm done sanding.
  19. Just got my half of a trade with 426 HEMI today. Not pleased at all with it...I'm ecstatic! Some awesome resin MOPAR LA Small Blocks, aluminum breather caps, valve covers, etc., and all look incredible. I will definitely be doing more trading with John!
  20. Very ambitious Steve, good luck!
  21. I'll definitely be watching this one TJ, I love the '71-'74 Chargers! Nice color on that one too, how much did it cost him?
  22. Welcome back Steve, nice looking Impala, along with all the other builds you've posted! I've gotta ask, do you remember what you painted your exhaust with on these kits, it looks great!
  23. Nice start John, and that modified chassis looks great! I've done the silver/aluminum gas tanks myself for as long as I can remember, it just looks better that way to me.
  24. Chris, I used styrene strips then sanded them until they looked good to my eyes. Some 4 inch wide masking tape, trimming, and paint and it was done.
