  1. Yeah... the mirrors are up that high so the driver can see what's on the roof! Signed; Debbie Downer
  2. C'mon! Another Corvette roadster without the hardtop and/or convertible up-top?
  3. Every time they announce new kits, at least one, if not more are dropped, usually due to "lack of pre orders". Which kit will it be this time?
  4. IIRC, we can now close our own threads. That needs to be mentioned. I didn't see the thread referred to, but by the description that is what it sounds like.
  5. I have Fotki, store literally thousands of pic on a paid for account. I do NOT recommend them. They have, and continue to lose my photos. It seems that every album I have (there must be over 100) has missing photos. Just a red X where the photo used to be. When I was new to the site, I would write to their service dept and ask where my pic was. It was confusing as they wanted a link to either the photo, or the page, but not both. Even then, they said there was nothing they could do. Now I have too many photos to transfer. I would like to hear from anyone else if they are missing any photos from Fotki.
  6. Darin, you 'done did good'!
  7. Kewl stuff, Cranky!
  8. Isn't it quite common for a kid to want to follow in their parent(s) footsteps?
  9. Do! Like!
  10. That would be because there is more... folks working on jobsites... than race car drivers.
  11. Hey! Now that I think of it, you can get Sombrero caps from the Modelhaus. Cost less than machined parts too.
  12. Nothing he could have done... to avoid the crash. RIP
  13. Nice bust out from the dry spell!
  14. Looks like the rear skirts are fine. It's the axle that needs to be moved forward... assuming the body to frame architecture is the same for the '49 to '54 years.
  15. I think Bill Stillwagon may have used Bobs Sombero caps on this build...
  16. OK, first a disclaimer- I haven't read the first few pages... just this page. Matt- thank you for posting the 'real' vs 'model' pics. Never noticed it before, but it hit with the comparison... that grille is NOT flat on the 1:1, nor is the top edge on the same plane as the bottom edge. The PL kits loses then and there. Great. Now what to do with the PL kits?
  17. Now that is unique! Great build Ron.
  18. How about a Pacer? I could make a mini fishbowl.
  19. If there is enough money to do any engineering, then lets do it up right. Correct the shallow tubs, thick glass, etc. As for what cars to kit, I would think a sure bet would be any Cadillac. A mid sixtees hearse, or the '61, '63, or '65 coupe.
  20. Javelin and / or AMX, please!
