  1. Sadly, I doubt there is enough profit margin (if any) for Chip Foose to bother.
  2. I always liked the Ford Forty Nine Concept...
  3. Thanks for keeping us in the loop, Art.
  4. I started a build of the pre-paint Charger by Testors... I got the 5.7 engine finished... ...and hacked off the die-cast hinges ...then packed it up. Maybe someday I will finish it?
  5. DANG! That looks just right! The weathering is spot-on, too!
  6. Yes, restyle... my bad on the description. But the again, I still think of the '56 Corvette as the true C2 (2nd gen.) 'vette.
  7. Limited photos of the next generation Charger surface...
  8. Maaso, I hope your insurance agent doesn't read this! Blown engines and wrecks seem to have a way with you. I like both your white trucks! The Typhoon is one rare piece. How did it rate in the 'fun factor'?
  9. Barbo, that is great news! I never realized this was available. I have never tried golf. Well... not completely true.... I have, but that windmill always screws me up. Anyhow, I hope you had a good game.
  10. Skip- You are correct. The current Charger does not deserve the 'Charger' nameplate. I like the Charger... but not as much now as I did 5 years ago. I have seen the nose on the next design, nothing to write home about.
  11. Sounds like if this was meant for in-house corporate-speak only, then they really screwed up the "message management". GM, too many corporate meetings, too little substance.

    "Breakin"

    While the build is not my style, the quality of the design is fantastic. Really sharp graphics!
  13. Sweet Jeezus! Oh, that is just soo rightous!
  14. I think you would find that most builders will pirate these parts from other kits, as we call "kitbashing". What kits do you have? What grilles do you like? Many builders have a wide variety of kits, and some of these kits would have both a stock and a custom grille. Tell us what your situation is.
  15. PONTIAC 1984 FIERO '84 INDY 500 PACE CAR... 1988... IMSA GTU.... Widebody kit... PONTIAC Fiero with a front engine conversion; tubbed...
  16. Amazing! How did you build a channel for the window? It would be easy for someone to not notice there are two upright strips, with just enough of a gap for the windscreen! That is good work!
  17. I have pics that I have collected over the years from these boards... use the link below. All the Alfas shown are Tamiya 1/24 scale. None are built by me. The pic's are listed alphabetically. http://public.fotki.com/JCole/model_car_shows/misc_model_contests/
  18. OH YEAH! The 'moose hits another home run!
  19. "You model builders always complaining about clogged nozzles??? THERE! We fixed it!" -Testors
  20. The mans reputation is legendary in this hobby. One of my personal goals in life is to avoid as much stress as I can, as I cannot avoid all of it. Based on what I have gone through, I will never deal with him via mail order again. He makes good stuff tho, so I will only buy it if it is right there in front of me. But to mail order? No way.
  21. When it comes to Ferrari, I know there are some amazing large scale replicas out there... so I voted MODEL.
  22. My '67 Corvair Monza, built many moons ago from the Prestige Series '69 Hardtop kit. I think the R&R (or was it F&F? I always get the two mixed up) top boot was for a Falcon. The wire hubcaps from a JoHan '68 Chrysler 300.
  23. Lately there has been sporadic problems with both Photobucket and Fotki. The problems will disappear. It sure gets frustrating in the meantime tho!
