  1. Has anyone used this stuff? I bought a can on the recommendation of a local hobby shop. It seems to have a nice gloss, but it comes out like a firehose. Just wondering if anyone knows if it can be polished using conventional methods? The only info I can find on Vallejos site is what you see in the pic.
  2. Time of day used to be measured with a sundial and and that’s why parents started telling their children to be home before dark.
  3. Nice! I like it when old glue bombs get rejuvenated.πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž
  4. Well done!πŸ‘ Nice clean build and a great stance.😎
  5. Love that green with the black fenders!πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž
  6. Me too. Especially something like this that would make such a cool resto-rod. I had my wife worried for a bit that I was gonna get it.😎
  7. Prison can separate people into various colors just like light through a prism?
  8. You could swap in an IFS system.
  9. Nice work on the trunk divider and trans tunnel.πŸ‘ I’m liking what I see so far!😎
  10. And we have some color….LP-42 Mica Red. It looks a bit orange to me. I hope the red interior will look ok with it. I’m wondering now if I should have done the grill and corner vents metallic grey also instead of SG black? 🧐
  11. Got the wheels and tires installed and the poseable steering works again.πŸ™‚ Also got the side blades painted. Once I get them masked I will spray the rest of the body.
  12. Yoda sounds like a pet name for your Toyota.
  13. That comes from being a sucker for glue-bombs.πŸ€ͺ
  14. Trains like that I would think would need more than 660 horsepower?😳
  15. And I got the body primed and the interior completed. I am not sticking with any stock color schemes.
  16. Somehow during my disassembly and reassembly the engine location seems to have shifted slightly causing the intake shroud to not line up with the opening for it.πŸ˜• I didn’t realize it until I had the engine glued solidly in place.😳 So I am taking the easy way out and eliminating the mounting pins for the shroud. I will glue it flat on top of the intake tubes after the body is mounted. Very little of the engine is visible after it is in place anyways.🧐
  17. Thanks Guys. It worked better than I hoped.πŸ™‚
  18. Shortly after getting my H, I ditched the allen head set screw and put a short 8-32 machine screw in its place and kept a stubby Robertson screwdriver handy in the booth. Yesterday I went to HD and picked up a brass female thumbscrew since they didn’t have males.πŸ˜• I added an 8-32 machine screw with a drop of red locktite and cut it to length. No more tools required now to install or change nozzles.πŸ™‚
  19. Outstanding build John! It is a real beauty,πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž
  20. It’s looking mighty fine Gerry!πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž
  21. Cool project Ken.😎 I like seeing these old kits get built.πŸ‘
  22. World events could be altered if time travel was possible.
