  1. Nice work!
  2. I always thought that the F-250 was a heavy duty 4x4 with leaf springs in the front, and the F-150 was a lighter duty that had the coil springs up front. Maybe I had it wrong all these years.
  3. This one was re issued a few years ago. I still have this sealed one if you are interested in some kind of trade.
  4. That sound good Charles. Please see if you could do the 'Wide-Eyed" version. The "Bug-Eyed" version has been done to death.
  5. I'm not real concerned about the historical correctness; I just want to know how well it will work.
  6. But they are woefully incorrect suspension wise for an F-250.
  7. Everybody keeps showing pictures of the "Bug-Eye" frontends. No one has addressed the "Wide-Eyed version. Now that has yet to be done. Please refer back to my original pics.
  8. There's a difference between modifying and modifying CORRECTLY. Anybody that can modify a stock '68 Bug hood and piece below the hood and tube bumpers, nerf bars and that rear fiberglass piece is a waay better modeler than myself.
  9. Thanks Ken. Maybe I'll wait until the show up on the shelves at HL if they ever re issue this kit.
  10. I honestly thought that whole "Donk" thing would be over by now. Whenever I would see one of these cars, I was embarrassed for both of us. They usally had very bad music blasting out of them too. ?
  11. Anybody know when this kit came out. It's got to be an older one. Does Revell have any plans to re issue it. I could only find 1 on eBay and it's like $95.
  12. Helium - Termite Tree.
  13. Here She Comes Now - Nirvana. Velvet Underground cover.
  14. Oh! I didn't even notice that. Oh well Goodyear is better than nothing at all. I guess I'll take them anyway.
  15. Also started an all tire and wheel. Parts bin.
  16. Joseph has announced on his site that he will soon be making the F-250 suspension kits again, I'm assuming that these were for the Mobius kits. Has anybody ever tried them on the later Superstones F-150s or '78 Bronco kits?
  17. Spent the morning Brush painting semi gloss black and aluminum stuff. Not nearly done. The afternoon starting a new parts bin. Tomorrow, yellow, red and orange stuff.
  18. None left and I have NEVER! seen one on ebay. Search resin bodies daily.
  19. Agreed. That primer grey with the clearcoat is hideous!
  20. I ran into one of my friends at a friend's funeral back in 2019. He just bought this custom bike, billet everything. Lost his front brake and the part would have to be custom made by a machine shop. He rode it both ways with no front brake. ?
  21. Emailed him last year. Said they stopped doing those long ago. Zero plans to do them again.
  22. I'd like to see anyone's attempt at that.
  23. The whole thing has gotten way too big and commercial. My cousin and I were talking about riding out when he got done building his low rider and I bought my bike. That was like the 80s. Probable a little more tolerable then.
