With Windows 7 there is something called a "Snipping Tool", where you select an area by "drawing" a box around it, and save it. Just get the pic to fill as much of the screen as you can, and "Snip" it. I knew about "Print Screen", but the ALT key capture technique is new to me. Thanks!

84 to 287 is the route we always did, and based on what I am reading here, I will stick with that route! Thank you all!

I plan on driving down to the NNL East from the central part of Mass, we always aim for Hartford, then 84 to 684 (IIRC) across the Tappen Zee to 287 Mapquest shows a route that appears to be quicker, yet through a real pita heavy traffic / NYC driving, which I want to avoid if it is a pita route. This route is 91 to 15 through Conn. to the Major Deegan Expressway Also it has been a few decades since I have gone over the GW Bridge, I recall getting stuck in the wrong travel lane. How is that bridge to navigate? Oh… I’ll probably be in the NYC area between 6:30 to 9:30 AM… I don’t need to be at the PAL Building at opening time. Thanks in advance!

Only problem with mine is it (again) arrived looking like someone with sweaty hands had a tight grip on the back cover. Maybe a Trekkie at the PO practicing their Vulcan Death Grip?

Mark (or anyone else who cares to answer), does that vintage Countach tooling from Tamiya seem smaller than 1/24 scale to you? In fact, it seems smaller than 1/25 scale to me. The remains of my first adult built Countach are now parts box fodder, the wheels seem too small to use on anything other than perhaps a Mini... hmmmm... now there's an idea!

Sounds like the hacks @ the PO had an "off" day...

I guess REAL. I can't imagine anyone offering a scale version of that.

Could someone explain what the floor to ceiling windows are done? There appears to be vertical edges and multiple panes. Is each display sealed from dust? I need to know, because I am certain that about half of the world's dust supply comes out of our house.

Wow! You found Heaven's side yard! My fav would be the Ford Fodor, the second pic down. Anyone know what year and name it is?

I have gone to Kinko's (now under new ownership, under a new name) with my artwork and decal film. Employee always gets nervous about inserting something "foreign" into their copier. I explain that I have done this successfully several times before. Always works out OK. I also tell them to use their best copier at the highest resolution. Also have them make a plain paper copy first so the film isn't wasted.

Harold! I'll trade ya for my 100 acres of pristine open land, just 300 miles east of Cape Cod!

At least $400 of that is for the "SOME DENTING TO THE BOX"

Maybe Jesse can recycle that last one into a mobile divorce court?

WA-HOO! It was in the mailbox today!

As a subscriber, I hope mine shows up soon. Knowing my luck, it slid under the mail truck's drivers seat

Great project! I know many here don't approve of using vinyl for graphics, but as I look at the b&w pic, it occurs to me that if I couldn't get a decal made of the number, I would make a cardboard template, and cut it out of vinyl. I have several colors, all from Hobbytown, and is available in sheets about 6" x 36". After it is applied, run an extra fine Sharpie black marker around the edge of the vinyl... practice on a scrap piece first. The vinyl is not as thick as would be expected. Just a thought.

Wow! Jaws On The Ground! Some fantastic classic, vintage, and race cars! I've never seen a Petty Enterprise collection that big. And that Norman Timbs Special is one of the sleekest rolling sculptures I have ever seen! This show had something for most everyone. Thanks for sharing.

I'm with George on this one... although there is a kit available, I think it is REAL.

Here is the pre-painted one... I just finished this a month ago. I didn't care for the wheels, so I did a black wash on them (The Detailer).

Pimp mobiles live on!

I would just add that an acrylic (water base) wash is nice. Once I used Model Master flat black as a wash on a chrome grille, and when I wiped off the excess from the high spots, the solvents loosened up the chrome. Bummer!

Well I guess a 1926 it is! Thanks for box art pic... what a 70's flashback box art design!

Hey, that looks good! How was the Krylon spray out of the can? My experience is it sprays too heavy, I was wondering what opinions others have had? Orange looks good on the VW bus

Nice Chaparral 2E, be sure to post more pics when it is finished!
