  1. Wives and Lovers should NEVER meet!
  2. Same here Charles, Lucked into the same size slab and prize it highly. The material is basically a pure extrusion of bondo so that works well as a filler also. Below is really an extravagance.
  3. Day after day I think 'I've Got to get back to that model project'!
  4. Yes indeed, even the small scraps can be useful for small parts like flanges. My shop is a testament to hording scraps of wire, plastics, metal, and resins of all kinds for detailing and scratch building.
  5. First the idea then... Research, research,research. As Rod Stewart said "Every picture tells a story". Then any material is your gateway to modeling.
  6. Favorites also include MJQ, Clapton, Zappa, and Bob Wills!
  7. missing my cue is embarrassing!
  8. Me, Myself, and I! I've always wanted to do one of these, unfortunately I never seem to have access to a camera or safe spot on the highway to get one on a super polished tanker.
  9. Morning for poor Graham Rahal who missed getting in the Big Show by .007 MPH!
  10. Front end looks a little like the last gen Camaro or Firebird.
  11. Risk not, you will, want not!
  12. Supplies are short in my local hobby shop.
  13. Night Rider was Not the best car focused TV show.
  14. They must have a problem with their vinyl/rubber formula. My 1960's tires still look fresh as new.
  15. Do you suppose that the Flux Capacitor will actually light up?
  16. Droned he was, just before pulling out his trusty 45 and blasting it out of the air!
  17. Car & Driver was a very cool magazine back in the 60s.
  18. Edit your detailing, sometimes less is more.
  19. Very impressive work on Mad Man's 1/25th version of the DOHC Andrew! It is a little gem. Is it going in one of your Lotus'?
  20. Oppressive Dogma Abounds!
  21. Any one have recommendations for 1/25 tires for "Silent Sam" as #40 was called back in the day.
  22. Missed not the Cat Women of the Moon but Devil Girl From Mars is far better!
  23. I got a Jorgenson Turbine years ago, the most unfortunate part was the wheels and tires, very low relief, one piece slicks with flat sidewalls. This aspect has always kept me from the build. I think he eventually got better 2 part wheels according to the add I answered but got the others instead. I would love to find a 3D printed set of wheels, and tires. I did work up a CAD version though it looks a little light.
  24. For me it has to be the 1/12 Bandai STP Indy Turbine. You see them every once in a great while and at ridiculous prices.
  25. Types 35, 55 and 57 are my favorite Bugattis!
