  1. That is just.... above and beyond awesome! Is the power source in or under the car? 10+ job!
  2. WOWZERS! So nice!
  3. Are the front or rear window glass compound curved? And if not, could the glass be cut from thin flat stock, and glued down to shallow mounting lips? Seeing this modification done, makes me want to buy the kit and try my own fix. This may be one of those "It's only plastic" moments.
  4. Glad to hear that there is a plan in the works! That, and that positive attitude, I know you will beat this!
  5. Best '50 Olds I have seen yet!
  6. Well, I agree for sure. The Mustang production car made before 1964 was much better looking.
  7. My wife and I removed all the pointless china and teacups in the dining room hutch, with collectibles that mean something to us. Not her grandmother. For me, I stocked it with my Franklin and Danbury Mint cars. Not my built models. The mint cars just look better. And because the subject matter tends to be of 50's and 60's cars (mostly Cadillac), I think guests can relate and appreciate them better.
  8. Love it! Dig the rake on the roof. Just right.
  9. X2. Shall we now burn him at the stake for having the gall to ask? Yeesh.
  10. I may build the LX, and raise the roof about ten scale inches. "There! Fixed it!"
  11. I just Google'd: "IMDb Surveillance" It appears there are (at least) 3 different movies by that name. Can you narrow it down?
  12. Oozes kewlness! Great imagination on display!
  13. Nice work! I remember building the NEWMAN Porsche; wish I still had it. Still hope to build the 917 someday. And the Ford GTR just looks nasty kewl!
  14. That's kewl beans, Darin!
  15. Not everyone can afford a 3D printer,, even if the price comes down. Heck, not everyone can afford a 2D printer.... paper, ink,,, cannot justify expense. What can be done, vs what is done, often separated by cost. I can imagine 3D parts, but I doubt the tech will ever be affordable for the masses.
  16. A friend of mine had the twin to it! Red, too! Of course, over here in the states, the steering wheel is on the wrong side! Enjoy it.
  17. Are you saying there was a stock Willys Coupe? That's just crazy talk! Everybody knows they all came out of the factory as gassers!
  18. I happened to have CNN on as it was live. The intensity of the twister was so strong, it sucked up the dirt and even lawn, depositing it everywhere as mud. This story will dominate for days. To think of the survivors stumbling out of the remains of their homes... can't even call for help, because everyone else around you is in the same hurt. Bad.
  19. Google Image "1973 Beetle Convertible" shows the curved windshield style. If it wasn't for Google, I couldn't tell one from the other.
