  1. It looks like you're off to another good start, Bernard!! Would you believe that I haven't even taken the shrink-wrap off of mine, yet? They're both sitting on the display case with the Roth kits and the new 2 in 1 '25 T kit that came in the mail this morning. Unfortunately, the T was a replacement for the Salt Shaker deal that didn't pan out. The guy had, (and sent me), the Salt Shaker box, but someone had replaced the contents with a standard '39 Chevy Stovebolt kit, instructions and all. Oh well, my quest for the holy grail continues...but that's another story for a different day... Keep up the GREAT work!! Later,
  2. Very cool build!! It looks to me like an upscale ratrod!! Later,
  3. I really like the Model "T" rear crossmember trick!! Thanks for the tip!! This build is coming along very nicely...I can't wait to see how close you get to the original artwork!! Later,
  4. Yeah...slanted B pillars, pie-cut hoods, modular engines, modern paint schemes or any of the other tricks used to make the styling of old cars look new just don't cut it when you're building something that dictates it be kept true to its original form!! It should be a lot of fun...after I finish the WagonRod and the '50 Chevy Z06 pickup... Later,
  5. All is well here in sunny CA!! Give me a call when you get a chance...I'll be around Saturday afternoon. Later,
  6. I keep coming back to look at this one!! Now that I have the Double Dragster kit, I may have to build a couple of those old dragsters to add to my collection!! I plan on selling a bunch of my older Danbury Mint stuff to make room for the new builds, rather than getting rid of some of my older builds... Later,
  7. Very, very nice, Lyle!! The whole thing comes together very well. The embossing powder trick on the fuzzy dice works well, too. Keep up the GREAT work!! Later,
  8. Yeah...we had a GREAT time!! It's hard not to have a good time in Maui, especially when the weather is as good as it was last week.
  9. Well...someone has to keep him on his toes!
  10. Eric, It's good to see you back on the forum and building again!! I hope that all is well with you and your family,
  11. Look at you go!! Now you're scratch building frames!! Jerry better watch out...at this rate you'll be building a brass chassis with working suspension by the end of the year!! Later,
  12. Very, very cool dragster, Bernard!! I think that this is your best build so far!! Everything about it is right on the money, including the fuel line and steering details!! Later,
  13. Too cool, Bernard!! All of the little bits fit together perfectly!! I'm gone for a week on vacation and you built a whole model!! I don't think I've done much since you were here in February!! Later,
  14. That one is looking pretty good!! How is the second one coming along?
  15. I like this tailgate much better!! I think that the stock running boards probably look best with the "old school" tire/wheel combination you've chosen. The interior is coming along nicely!! Later,
  16. Nice use of a Potvin, Mike!! The faded paint looks GREAT!! Later,
  17. I really like that one, Alyn!!!
  18. WOW!! The engine detail looks awesome!! I guess now you don't have to fidget with that bottom exit exhaust system we were talking about... How's the second one coming along? Any progress yet? Later,
  19. I've found that eBay is a GREAT source for detail photos. You need to look often and save anything you find that you like...
  20. Cool stuff, Virgil!! What paint did you use for the bumpers? Later,
  21. It looks like you're off to a good start!! The oil cooler scoop looks pretty good!! This should look pretty cool on the tables at the NNL next year!! Later,
  22. That should look pretty cool sitting on the orange frame!! Later,
  23. VERY, VERY NICE!! The P4 is one of my all time favorite Ferraris!! Great photography, too!! Thanks for sharing,
  24. That is pretty cool!! I bet that it would make pretty quick work of most any lawn!! Later,
  25. The paint looks GREAT, Brian!! Yeah...the interior would probably look better in a darker red...next time... Later,
