I rarely ever listen to music while I build I usually have the TV on. If I do then I usually have either my iPod going or its through iTunes on my computer. and its a mix of alot of stuff. mostly modern country (Tim MaGraw, alot of Rascal Flatts (favorite Band). some 90's alternative rock. (Third Eyed Blind, 3 Doors Down, Matchbox Tewnty) a little bit of modern rock, some Metalica, some rap/rock (Limp Bizkit. Kidd Rock, Linken Park), little Johnny Cash, and a very little bit of early 2000's rap (eminem, Dr Dre, Nelly), none of this newer rap ###### that out there. no 80's 'hair' bands, I hate that stuff, right now i'm listening to Billy Joel, for some unknown reason I'm really into his music right now.

need to add another recent kit. the AMT Fast and Furious Eclipse. its horrible, flat chassis, engine is just brick of plastic. the turbo that was'nt connected to anything, interior is wrong (but I do give AMT credit for the seperate door window cranks, but thats incorrect for the movie car as it had power windows),

Fujimi 04-05 Subaru WRX. wrong truck lid, they used there 93-01 Impreza tooling as a base, so it has a two door interior, all they did to update is was to add shims to the interior sides so it matched the body

Strada Sports. foreign kits and supplies. www.stradasports.com and there's always EBAY

yea it has the tuner engine, its a Nissan sr20det, i'm not sure of how well its detailed. or how accurate it is.

I'm building a rat rod 41 Chevy, and in my search for paint for it I noticed that Tamiya has some really cool colors in there AS line (Airplanes), what kind of finish does this paint leave. I not looking for a true flat. but more of a satin finish

I was 6, so about 91-92. I remember what kit is was, Monogram 1/32 Bronco

I did work full time for a year in a big box store. but I hated it. so know I'm back in school finishing my degree in architectural computer aided drafting. I still work part time for the big box store. but I'm not getting any hours and I don't think I'll be there much longer

anytime I buy a kit I plan on what i'm going to do to it, and what ever suits me at that moment is what I'll build. most of the time i'll have three projets going on at once. right now I have three completely different projects going. a Tamiya Carrera GT, and MPC 78 Chevette "woody", and a Revell 41 Chevy pickup rat rod

wow is all I have to say, looks spectacular.

Tower Hobbies has it listed as early April, since the toolings already done I would think that it would be released on time, a rarity for Revell

Revell is coming out with an 08 Shelby GT500 kit. thats a little closer then a stock GT kit, but still light years away. alot of scratchbuilding would be needed.

watching it as I post this. I have a Fujimi RX8 in my stash I may turn into Patrick Dempseys RX8 he's running today. (The kits not really all that well detailed and would make a nice race car)

I was in my LHS shop and noticed that JADA has released some of there diecasts as full plastic kits. has anyone seen these. The diecasts are not really accurate but they are cool looking. and JADA has some diecast kits that have never been done in plastic. although they would need some work to get to somewhat factory stock. THe only kits my LHS had where a Corvette Z06 (already done well by Revell) and 07 GT500 (coming soon from Revell)

I don't watch much network televison, (At least until "Gear" (Top Gear USA) debuts on NBC in March) what happened to the sad looking Volare next to it.

thats who I was thinking of, thanks Marc

what would be needed to make it a 70, I want to build it into a Yenko Duece

who makes parts to convert the AMT 70 Super Bee to a Coronet R/T. I know of one. (won't say but it starts with an A), but there customer service and shipping is not good. I thought I heard of someone else doing them but I never got there name. I need a pitchfork hood and R/T tailpanel and side scoops

I've had the kit to do this conversion for a few years now. I just havent started it yet.

Revell SVT Focus..to a 4dr

I work For Target, I do set up work for them and earlier this morning I notice a sign that said Hot Wheels Snap Kits for $9.99. which I knew had to be the Revell kits. so I go to the back to see and sure enough. there the ex Wheels of Fire snap kits. they came assorted and all we had where the 57 Chevy, C5 Vette Coupe, and Hummer H1. a little more research I find that Target has the 1:16 scale 57 Chevy kit available online. (not cheap though, at 64.99 plus shipping, its cheaper through Model Roundup and Model Express). no full detail kits like the 32 Ford Sedan (Dangit, would have been nice to use my discount to get one of those cheap). I'm guessing maybe Hobbico would rather deal with Target then Wal-Mart. if I wouldn't have seen that sign I wouldn't have even noticed the kits. the boxes only have a tiny Revell logo on them, compared to RC2. which slapped there name on everything

I did this one in 02, not my best, but my favorite. it was my best build then, I built it when I was 17. Paint is Tamiya Crome Yellow. this is also the first model I ever wired the engine.

Merc. Benz must have eased up on there licencing. Tamiya's reissuing alot of there old Mercedes kits. notice the 560 on the top of the page. i'm guessing the 348 is the Testors kit, and the 2008 Shelby GT500 is listed as 1:24, either its a misprint or its a new tool diffferent then the Revell 06 GT kit.

i'm game. I got an old AMT 36 Ford in the closet just begging to be done as a roadster

How does that little guy run, I'm debating getting one of those.
