  1. Can't pick a favorite as they are all so nice.
  2. They are all great. Really love the bug set up.
  3. Kind of makes me glad I'm almost 69. Figure maybe 5 more years od life. Hate to think of where will be as a nation. Outlooks kind of grim. Driers are just the start. Merry Christmas.
  4. Thank you Steve, Dave and Randy. I just look at them as models. I don't pay attention to proportions as I'm not at that level of building. And at almost 69. It's only going to go downhill. LOL
  5. I know. My sister had them and she suggested to the trapper to release him up in the country. He told her that.
  6. I had a city cop pull me over for doing 40 in a 30 zone. I had to stop behind the cop car because it was 2 lane and he was standing out side the car. On the drivers side. And traffic was coming so I couldn't go around him. I went by and stopped at the traffic light and made me pull over. I even told him I had to stop behind his car because of on coming traffic. I was 19 and owned a nice 1969 Bonneville 2dr HT. Must have thought I was one of the rich kids.
  7. Boston is the worse for drivers and their horns. Had to live there for 40 days this summer to be close to Dana Farber. Never ever going back to that city. Hated every minute of being there.
  8. I have a pellet gun. Hoping that helps. In NYS it's illegal to trap a ground hog and transport it somewhere else. Not that I think anyone would report me but you just never know. My luck has never been the best. Example. I'm sure I stop and then go like everyone else at a stop sign. I get pulled over and the officer said "you are suppose to count to 3 when you come to a complete stop before you go again and you didn't". Luckily he didn't give me a ticket. But now days I see people going through red lights. And I get stopped for not counting to 3? Give me a break.
  9. We have this problem with Ground Hogs. Cute to look at. But they can do a lot of damage. One is under the pool deck which is impossible to get to unless we pull the decking up.
  10. Our Ollies doesn't have self check out. At least at my store, And the theft rate is so high in my area I doubt they ever will. Our local supermarket had to put sensors on the shopping carts because people were walking out with carts full of groceries. If the cart doesn't go through the check out. An alarm goes off and a camera takes a photo of the lobby area and the person. Sad it's come to this. Some convenient marts who use to be 24/7 now close in the evening because of multiple robberies.
  11. I stopped in my Ollies yesterday to pick a few things up and there was this long line. One cashier. And during my trip through the store I didn't see another Ollies employee. Must be they can't keep help like everywhere else.
  12. Thank you Donato, Mario and Carl.
  13. Thank you Garry and David. I can't believe the paint is still a little tacky. Rustoleum on Duplicolor Primer. It's been sitting for over a month.
  14. I’m calling this the “1953 Corvette Outback”. Lol
  15. Is this basically the same kit? Just different hood?
  16. Really nice looking with those wheels.
  17. Looks great.
  18. A stunning build. Both of them.
  19. Beautiful build. Colors are awesome.
  20. I would Carl but my stores doesn't have them.
  21. Thank you Andy. It's Rustoleum "Paint For Plastic" Universal Silver on Duplicator Primer. I used the cheaper Duplicator Primer and it didn't come out well. Actually etched the plastic a bit. So I primed it with the more expensive Duplicator Primer and it came out ok.
  22. Thank you Anthony and Bob. Anthony. I agree with the green color combo. I just knew I wasn't going to do yellow. If you have extra parts you can do a lot more to this kit. The exhaust pipes were a pain. Why they were in 2 pieces I do not know. And I wasn't going to add the decals because I'm horrible with them. Notice around the door handles. And there was a tin piece of decal connected to the side decal that was suppose to go across the top of the side vent. But that didn't work out for me. And the photo on the box shows the decal going up to the top of the stack opening but the instructions showed they started at the bottom of it. Maybe starting at the bottom would have looked better.
