  1. Thanks Guys.? I’m going to play with it a bit more to see if I can get it looking better.
  2. Nice detailing on the engine Bob.?
  3. The 2000GT is a completely different car from the S800, although the front end has some similarities. S800: 2000GT:
  4. I have a second parts Nomad, so I’ve been exploring another option. Thoughts anyone? I wasn’t kidding about the T-Bird roof Jim.?
  5. Conceive a plan before going off half-cocked.
  6. Yeah, if one didn’t know better, you would swear it was 1/32 scale….but it’s not. Now I’m itching to build it.?
  7. I agree. Unless you have a fair bit of experience airbrushing, Mr.Color or Tamiya lacquers or acrylics are much easier to use. Or even Vallejo Air. JMO.
  8. Know the facts before posting.
  9. Looks great Len!?
  10. Did you ever finish this one Tom? I just picked up a complete kit for $15 at a flea market.?
  11. Oops, can’t read the box in the photo.? It is a Fujimi Toyota Sports 800. I didn’t know of the cars existence till today. And it looks to be complete and unstarted except for a couple parts taken off the trees.? Cool little video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQiybrmwHyA Here it is next to a Mazda MX-5. They are both 1/24 scale.
  12. Buy some more model kits the wife said to me in my dream.
  13. Picked this up at a local flea market today.
  14. Outstanding work Phil. ??
  15. Very nice.?
  16. That is one beautiful looking ‘34 Ford Lee!? Well done.?
  17. My all time favourite movie!?
  18. Toilet humour stinks.
  19. Waitresses who put on a quart of perfume before going to work. We went out for supper with a couple of friends last night and the wife (who has allergies) had to plug her nose every time one waitress walked by. This also applies to anyone anywhere who thinks they need to bathe in the stuff. Do they really stink that bad??
  20. Yes, I get them at Staples. They are available in many different grades too. Very soft pencils for drawing (12B–3B) Pencils in classic hardness grades for writing and sketching (2B, B, HB, H, 2H) Very hard pencils for technical drawing and cartography (3H - 10H) Much better than a standard HB (soft) pencil. A good quality sharpener is also a worthwhile investment. https://www.staedtler.com/ca/en/products/pencils-and-accessories/graphite-pencils/
  21. I also cast a couple sizes of disc brake rotors that I can drill to slide over the evergreen stub that I mount to the wheels.
  22. Here’s a couple of ways to find the center of a wheel. 1) A center finder attachment for a combination square. 2) Find something close to half the diameter and mark the wheel four times to get double crosshairs straddling the exact center. Both can be done with or without the tire mounted.
  23. Spheres, when you need one, are never around.
  24. Classy looking rig Tom!??
