NOBLNG

Please forgive my ignorance here, but what exactly is a promo? I gather it is some kind of early-run model with limited parts and details. Did they come pre-assembled or were they kits? How do I know when I see one?

Wow, You made it look like they belong together.

There! I fixed it! The older bottles are just fine.

Truly outstanding work on this! You have far, far ,far more patience than I do.

Nice weathering job. I bet about 74.14% of folks here know what that thing on the door is!

Just for the '27 Ford!

Sorry, this is a better pic. The nozzle is plastic and although it is separate from the body, it will not screw off. I have given it a fairly decent twist with pliers, and it did not budge. I was thinking of heating a pin red hot and melting a hole, but I do not want to have it burst into a ball of flames in my hands!

I have stuck a needle down inside the nozzle and I hit a blockage or something?? I cannot seem to puncture it so It is not a foil seal... yet when I squeeze the bottle nothing wants to come out. After shaking it and poking at it, I can get a very little bit to come out. Is this thing defective or is there something that I just don't get? Edit: I have removed the cap, and the rest is a one piece molded bottle that I can see. I would drill a hole clean into the reservoir, but I don't want to enlarge the hole and all my small drill bits are not long enough.

Same with "cast iron" exhaust manifolds, I leave the mould lines on them.

Nice! I like it!

Wow, beautiful wiring job on that engine! That's a nifty little trick with the tube and sculpey clay. I will have to try that one. The interior is fabulous also!

I just stumbled across this thread during a search and all I can say is WOW! You are taking detailing to a whole 'nother level.

I agree, those paint jobs are immaculate!

looks excellent!

Wow! That is really top notch! I love the "been there" stickers in the back window.

And I also picked up a '70-1/2 Camaro. Hey, if Michaels is going to keep sending me 50% or 55% off coupons, I'm going to eventually buy all they have. Woo Hoo! The 20,000th reply.

I wound up exchanging the 1/24th scale '66 Shelby for this 1/25th scale '67 Shelby. This Mustang may have to be my first black paint job I attempt?

That's exactly what I do. Type in what I want to look at and click on images. It's amazing what comes up sometimes that is totally unrelated??

Beautiful restoration. I like the new shoes!

Interesting mods. I'm not quite sure where you're going with this yet, but carry on! Salt flats racer maybe???

Well I am starting on this one slowly. As folks on here say, it is a fairly nice kit. It will be mostly stock appearance with some detailing. at least that is the plan at the outset. The first issue I come across is the tail lights. They are quite large and very thick. Out of scale parts bother me unless it is a fantasy type build. The problem with these is: I can only reduce the thickness a certain amount before I cut into the recess... so I may have to drill out the recess in the body so that I can inset them somewhat. If anybody has corrected these somehow, please post up or PM me. Thanks Greg.

Very Nice! Your brass looks pretty good, it just hasn't been polished lately.

This is looking fabulous so far! Can't wait to see the rest of it.
