They also added several road courses to the schedule as well as both Pocono races are the same weekend.. There is only one race in Dover and a few others lost there second races. It is primarily an attempt to up there ratings and fans again NASCAR has been taking a slow decline and it got a lot worse once Covid hit...

I don't know about Tamiya but I used Duplicolor Royal Blue I believe it was and it matches pretty good.

If I remember right the MPC is 1/25th so that may not work as I have the revel 1/24th kit.... I’ll have to do a search but I don’t usually have much luck finding what I’m looking for. Think it’s more me than the forum though.... -
I'm starting on doing a far job of replicating some of the vehicles my Dad had when I was young, I've got almost everything I need to do his Green 75 Chevy pick up but his was 2wd and the kit is 4wd is there an easy way to change it over? Here is a pic of the 75 and some of the others I want to try to replicate. I probably won't worry about the caps as my Dad was good for taking them off at the spur of the moment.

Repairing clear plastic window scratches
SCRWDRVR replied to Nelly's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I use this on fine scratches and on my cases. Works great, I found it a while back looking for something for the windshield on my motorcycle. -
I am currently making a mid 70's fleetside and the way I did it was to use the 78 GMC Big Game Country Revell kit and used the grille out of the 1976 Chevy Sport stepside Revell kit. I'm not sure the 76 grille is the same as the 78 but I'm sure they are close...

Kits with slotted wheels
SCRWDRVR replied to SCRWDRVR's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks guys, I've been keeping my eyes open but ultimately I have to clear anything I buy though him it's his build and money but I'm helping him on locating parts. I have a lot more than him but what I have is minimal. I'm doing some searchs on the ones you all have listed to price shop, you know how cheap us builders are LOL.... -

I’ll add it to the list of possible donors... thanks the fronts are perfect, I don’t have that kit maybe he can buy one and I can buy so we each have the kit and the wheels.. lol I’ll have to see what I can pic the kits up for if not maybe a post in the wanted section for a trade... -

Thanks for the info, his car did not have the factory wheels but aftermarket one that were just like them. He picked up the kit somewhere and it is the AMT kit. It seems to have very little interior detail and we are considering picking up the new 007 71 Mustang for the dash and such. I never owned one and I'm sure the back windows were tough to see out of however I did have a 2dr Maverick which also had that flat back window and it was a challenge for sure... -
My brother and I are getting parts together to replicate his car from our youth. He had a 73 Mach 1 that had aluminum slots on it like in this picture (not his car but just like it) He had aftermarket wheels like this on it and the only set in my parts box are 4 lug so I'm looking to see what kits I can pick up to get a set.

This is an affliction that I don't have a bad case of surprisingly, don't get me wrong I have been know to pull wheels from another kit or hoods to get the effect I want or match a 1:1 I'm trying to replicate but probably 95% of my builds are done with what comes with it outside of BMF, paints and wires and such.... -
Thanks I will definitely stick with the TS.. Thanks all

Will do, I've never used the Tamiya TS it is an enamel right?
