  1. You clear coat your crapy enamel paint job with lacquer, which is all you can get, and then stripping it down the styrene body melts into a gob of goo. And it was the last of those 'find no more' kits that cost you your life savings because you just Had to have it.
  2. Streaming behind me were All the other competitors!
  3. Pretty Cool, This year saw the First Citroen 2CV to finish the DAKAR Rally, all be it in the Historic Class.
  4. Here are a couple of ref pics from the LGS Historics.
  5. Well the Bonnet ought not blow off at speed with that nifty holdfast!
  6. just needs a winged rad cap, but what a fun project, great weathering!
  7. Finished is an elusive term I am still striving to achieve.
  8. Just 4 more to go! Those are outstanding! But, then, the whole build demands it. Including the nipples in the 3D print is insightful.
  9. Relationships are hard to come by when both desirable and Undesirable women run screaming at the sight of you.
  10. Some modelers prefer smaller scales, some larger, and some the whole rigmarole.
  11. The LBC looks like it would be a pretty cool LSR but I am not sure about the Dusi spoked wheels for aerodynamics. I think I finally have my color scheme sorted out the the Bug LSR.
  12. Looks Sweeet Pat! Must have been fun to drive in the day. I was just going to say 'is the pipe laying dozer next'? Is there room in the garage?
  13. It is more like driving a Land Yacht.
  14. Wow, the chrome looks perfect. Is that the chrome pens again of some other finish?
  15. The electric fans are pretty much a "period" ender. And the wheeled trolley is pretty cool. The wire screen does look like a good match for the 1:1.
  16. The bigger the tires the smaller the.....
  17. The shocks are right on the money. The tech keeps getting better and better year to year if not day to day. Look at what you can do today that we wouldn't have even dreamed of a couple of years ago. I know you've updated the tech on this Bentley but I think the body should really rest on saw horses.
  18. Hat, it is really Eenie Menie Chilly Beenie The Spirits are About to Speak. Fan Mail from some flounder?
  19. Am thinking, there's no doubt about it... I need another hat!
  20. And then I get lost in choosing the right engine for a 32 Duce. the V12 will take some frame stretching and anything with the Lasalle tranny will need even more mods.
  21. A very Sweet 2CV. It wasn't till later that I noticed the Land Rover.
  22. What then of the lathe or mill or machine in general that preforms it's task by way of digital input. The dremel is simply a motorized hand tool and does not operate independantly unless incorporated into a digitally controlled motorized operating system. Digital in this case not referring to fingers or toes.
