  2. Have to give Speed City Resin a plug here.Ordered the Firestone Drag 500 slicks on 11/5,got them today Heres some shots with the slicks and the stance i want to acheive when done Now to find a set of wheels!!
  3. The chassie did need an extra .225 or so to make it fit.and about .190 had to come off the width also. These are not the wheels i plan to use,i have some Firestone Drag 500 slicks on the way from Speed City and the 65 Chevelle PE set from model car garage.When i get those ill be looking for a set of centerline style wheels
  4. This is a project based on a real car my brother co-owned and drove. It was the middle 70s and i taged along sometimes acting as the the water wagon mule! I started with the AMT #6505 65 Chevell Station Wagon as the body,AMT -636 66 Chevy Nova Prostreet for the chassie and suspension and the 350 automatic from the MPC 1-3708 25th anniversary Corvette
  5. I watch cartoons,Betty Boop,Bugs Bunny,Popeye,the old classics!
  6. Peter,i had to google what this topic was about.Even after that im still not sure what discord is but i think it is a online game with a theme of sorts? I also agree with you that we have enough discourse to last a good wile and then some
  7. Heres a few impromptu shots,its now to the detail painting,touchup and havent made up my mind on what to do with the trailer wheels
  8. Good afternoon modelers Today i was nearing the end of the Revell auto transport trailer i came up to the hydraulic hose part of the instructions and found they are not only confusing but incorrect on a hose or two. Did a google search for auto trailers but no detail pics i could find so after much puzzlin my puzzler was puzzed out. I did complete that part but wow what a time suk So,back to the bench and model on!!
  9. Outstanding work.The weathering looks spot on. My only critique is the engine in the truck needs to be weathered a bit ,but as Doug Marcida might say...........It will look awsome
  10. I got great results with it and an up date i was able to get it back together and working.When i dropped it the .5 mm nozzle was in it so that was destroyed,the problem was the other end where the needle goes in.The body was bent right on the threads but i took a file and removed the damaged threads and got it back together,ill have to buy a new nozzle so i dont feel as bad.If it had been assembled the outcome may have been different. However,this has me s thinkin about getting another ab of the trigger style to add to my insanity/arsenal
  11. One of those days,just droped my neo airbrush to the concrete floor,nozzel destroyed....Check Body of air brush bent................................Check now a useless scrap of metal............................Check Tempting to go to HL for a new one,was a great ab untill it hit the floor Should i stick to the neo or up grade Budget is about 100
  12. Whoo Hooo! Garage accessory goodness Yet more candy for my sweet tooth
  13. Might seem kinda boring to some but for me watching this young man gives my hope for todays youth and i like some of the kit bashing thats behind him
  14. Shoplifters are sorted into two classes,the pros that make a living doing this and the amateurs. The pros do it best.I worked at a national chain store for ten yeas and heres a sample of what i witnessed,how the pro dose it,they knew that no one in the store can lay a hand or touch any accused shoplifter and how many times did some of the pros cuss me or flip me of after i did what the company suggested which was to offer the thief to pay for their merch,then their was the family that shoplifts together goes to jail together.Yes Mommy and daddys with preteens in tow showing the youngsters the ropes of steeling.Then the armatures which seemed to be mostly teens just out for a thrill,like when a flock of young girls take the new cloths into a dressing room and urinate and defecate all over the cloths and the dressing room,good time baby!
  15. I likie,Count me in for at least one,and 4x4 bashing it is on my radar now!
  16. Thanks brian! My quandary was that if it was a light i was going to paint it,but now it shalt remain body color Back to the bench!
  17. I am in the middle of this kit On top of the sleeper cab there is a round thing that kinda looks like it might be a light Its hard to see in this view but if you look between the drivers side exhaust and the cb antenna on the roof of the sleeper. Can you help a guy down on his luck
