  1. Nice job. I see you gate the steering to work. I always fail at that.
  2. Does there trebuchet launch the little balls?
  3. I have the convertible version in the stash. My dad had a 1:1 white '54 convertible that burnt the (you know what) out of side of my leg when I was a little kid.
  4. Nice racers. Someone likes Firestones!
  5. Cool builds.
  6. Yep, the forward leaning letters can be seen in the decal and the box art.
  7. Tasteful mods. Well done.
  8. Very creative builds.
  9. Very nice collection.
  10. I am sorry for your loss. I have an AWESOME wife of 31 years and still going strong. I cannot imagine life without her. Beautiful builds you have for the year.
  11. Thank you Mike.?
  12. Thank you Carl. ?

  16. Let me be the 1st to congratulate you on an excellent build.
  17. Thank you Bob. ? Thank you Rob. ? Thank you Gareth. ?
  18. Quite a variety of high quality builds.
  19. I have NEVER seen an ad on this forum the 2 years I have been here. It may be because my son installed a popup blocker on my PC. It works fantastic apparently. I just looked and it has saved me from 491,272 popup ads since it was installed.
  20. Very sweet customs. The Silver Charger is off the hook!
  21. The copper Supra is gorgeous.
  22. The C-pillar modification is seamless. BTW since the is no B-pillar this would actually be considered a 4 door hardtop and not a sedan. Well done!
  23. Steve, Regarding the Javelin, this is kind of a custom Frankenstein build. Back in the 80's when I first got back into building briefly. I got this kit through a mail a mail order catalog. I started to build it stock but thought that was lame. I also had a 1988 reissue of a MPC flip nose 57 Chevy that was a drag race car version. The Chevy paint job came out like BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH and this was before I learned you could strip bad paint jobs. Sooo... I ended up swapping out the chassis between the two cars. Since I did not like the AMX rounded square tail lights, I modified them to look like 68 Firebird tail lights. Looking at the front I always thought it would look cooler with a 69 Rally Sport Camaro hidden headlight treatment but I never got around to it. The build quality is pretty sad by today's standards but I like the subject matter.
