Same... I remember hearing the music and that clown laughing and thinking OOOOHH BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH here he comes again. Then getting blown to bits.

while on vacation

I make notes when I am away from a project and have an idea. That note goes in my pocket and the the washing machine most times. I should probably keep better notes. It might keep me from forgetting what the plan was for something and then ordering a totally new set of aftermarket parts for something I already ordered aftermarket parts for. I do use pictures though. Lots of reference pictures I print out and keep either in the box or in a folder.

I don't remember if this kit came with the 8 lug wheels as for some reason I remember getting some from Fireball. I can look through my parts box later and see if I still have the kit wheels.

Here is a picture of the above mentioned 4x4 kit (the 1970 but with a grill from the 69 kit). There is no separate trim in the box as i recall. The lower trim is molded in and I had to sand it off as i recall. The molded upper trim can be chromed and painted to match the trim. I sanded it down a little because I didn't want the trim. Ironically, I turned this into a 2 WD. I ended up using all the 4x4 parts on other things or I would send them to you.

Looks awesome. Great job on the paint and engine detail!! Previous owner seems to have put GM seatbelts in. Overall really outstanding work.

Drove my 2010 from WA to MS during a multi state winter storm. Performance in the snow was way better than I thought it would be. But like you said, driving within the limits is the most important factor.

This would get you the short bed. 69-72 all have the same body just different grills. you would need a 72 grill. For the 4wd you would probably need to scavenge from a 4wd kit.

Those are all really bad kits...the plastics are filled with toxins and luckily I know how to dispose of them properly. You are going to have to send them all to me....😂

Having never used it for anything myself, I'm curious what you are intending to build with it?? Might help get you a source if we know what you need it for.

Give it a minute...it'll restore itself.

That's what an annual is!! Now I know. I always thought it was some model or other that was release for one year only or something like that but never knew exactly.

My usual method, only broke one bottle this way.

That Dart is pretty cool. More of the fast attach type of response. I wouldn't want to be in the middle of a tornado in that one....but then again I wouldn't want to be in a tornado at all.

There are quite a few with that type of packaging. Some are just repackaged. But Revell has done quite a few Ferraris. https://www.scalemates.com/search.php?q=ferrari*&fkSECTION[]=Kits&fkTYPENAME[]="Full kits"&fkCOMPNAME[]="Revell"

I got mine when I was doing a lot more armor modeling and thought the multiple tips would be great for camo on vehicles. I think I only used two ever and because I really had no clue what I was doing, had a junk compressor and had no patience, it never really worked out. I'm pretty sure that was their marketing idea...the camo thing not the no clue thing.

I do most of my painting in the garage so the compressor size doesn't matter too much. I ended up with a larger tanked compressor that I use for all kinds of things and have to dial down for air brushing. It is kind of old, kind of noisy and they don't make it any more but it is now part of the working formula of getting decent results.

This was my first airbrush....I still have it....I still haven't figured it out. From there I moved to Badger and Paashce and finally a Grex. I still have and use all three because I am weird and each one is for a specific paint. What I ended up learning is that it wasn't the cheap airbrush that was causing me to have lousy results. It was the cheap compressor and my lack of understanding and patience. It took a little while for me to get good results but once I did, I could use almost any of my airbrushes with success (except that aztec one).

Issue may not be the airbrush. May be compressor. Could be inconsistent pressure, or pulsing, or moisture in the line, too much pressure, too little pressure. Whole bunch of variables and the only real way to figure out what will work best is to experiment with the specific paint you plan on using.

Cool idea. Looks like part corvette part buick part 32 Ford with a whole bunch of scratch building.

In the parking lot at work

Can only speak for some of the Ford truck promos - but the hoods don't open.

I watched most of it on mute...😂

Which one of you scratch building, 3d design printing, ninjas is going to tackle this?

Not an expert but I don't think I have waited as long as 10 minutes to recoat with createx. Paint it, spray it with air (or light once over with a hair dryer if it isn't warm), paint it again. Probably doing it "wrong" but it's worked for me so far.
