  1. The Falcon is super cool JC ?
  2. Hope ya didn't lose too much of it Kyle. If it's Model Master probably won't be available before too long. I've had mine for years since it doesn't get used much.
  3. Came in today from Lex's Scale Modeling (ebay seller) Hood almost a perfect fit, just a tiny bit narrow. Nice smooth finish tho. The underside will need some cleaning up.
  4. Thanks again guys, I was glad to get this one finally done.
  5. Progressing great Luke, gonna be cool!!
  6. Welcome back to the hobby John, a lot to be learned here from the many great posters on here. I too resumed model building after retirement a few years ago and my wife is also supportive....she does her cross-stiching, I model.
  7. Welcome Ron, I also build models as a youngster (tho usually airplanes) then later when NASCAR was "hot" did a few of my families favorites and again due to work constraints stopped again. After retiring a few years ago it picked up again and hasn't stopped. Got a lot of great info on this forum from a lot of great posters. Judging by your screen name, I was born 2 years before you.
  8. Welcome Craig....wow, great paint work, I especially like the Olds.?
  9. Looks great Martin and welcome back to the hobby.
  10. Welcome Jordan, a lot to be learned here, a lot of great helpful posters. Those kits for your son to build can be a bit challenging tho, I'm sure some on here would agree a good start would be a snap together kit as a start.
  11. Wow Geoff, where do you find the time?? I'm impressed my friend.
  12. Thanks, in general, it's a good kit but does have its issues. I have another one to build but won't be a 350H.
  13. To me whats particularly interesting to me on that car, is the picture of it rusting away in a junkyard.
  14. That '38 Chevy looks great Dan, cute VW as well. My wife before I knew her bought a new '68 VW ( We had a couple others later in life). Since she hung around with a pretty notable hot rod crowd back then she couldn't resist "hot rodding" it and blew the engine not once but twice. She got rid of it for a '66 GTO Convertable.
  15. Very interesting stuff here. As has been mentioned, the weight transfer thing was what I always thought the reason to be. It does give the car a pretty cool look tho.
  16. Well Geoff my friend, I hope you don't crack it toooo much???
  17. Got this tubbed undercarriage with suspension parts off of ebay today. It's from '66 Nova kit but I don't know which one. Gonna use it with the AMT 55' Chevy Bel Air 2-door sedan body. It's actually almost an exact fit, but will need some alterations tho.
  18. Thanks neighbor!!?
  19. Would have been nice to see Robert. Was probably a cool collection.
  20. Well John, I think you nailed it pretty good!! I too agree about '60's drag cars, it was a great time!!?
  21. Looks great Martin. I have that kit in waiting, nervous about starting it.
  22. Great pictures, you have to adorable happy kids. I have read before that the '57 snap kit is really nice. Gotta try one. They really look great!!
  23. Thats looking great Larry. I'm not into NASCAR models (anymore at least), but your rendition of that car is right on!!!?
  24. Ahhh, the making of a really cool Nomadistic (is that even a word?) wagon?
  25. Cool looking Gasser, really like it?
