  1. So glad to hear Steve is back! That motivates me to get my model table set up and get back to building in my new house.
  2. Well, since I sold my 85 Mustang coupe 😢 I can spend all my attention to fixing up my 88 5.0 vert. This is what happen a coupe of years ago which my Ins totaled her but I was able to buy it back and still got $4500 from the lady that cause it. Time to make it look like this again more to come later......
  3. I have not seen that one. Need to take a look. Loved him in A History of Violence. BTW History of V was the last Hollywood movie to be sold on VHS.
  4. Love the yellow! And the right hand drive is slick.
  5. Most of those idiots can't drive normally let alone try this BS. Same goes for street racing. Both Mustang and the one Ford club here in St. Lou have big car shows every year and tell you over the PA that they have cops sitting and waiting for you if you are inclined to be a moron.
  6. Have to agree about Nick Cage.....LOVE everything he has done. The original Gone was a very long incredible car chase with a tiny little plot added. I need to rewatch the newer Vanishing P, have only seen it once. I just like the original cause I'm a big time fan of the actor Barry Newman. But yeah, no plot what so ever, more like an ad for Mopar....LOL
  7. I prefer the original Vanishing Point and Gone in 60 but I will say the chase in the new 60 was not to bad. One of the stunt drivers in the new Gone was a kid when he went to the theater to see the original Gone and HB was there with Eleanor and he got to talk with HB, he says that was the reason he became a stunt man. Also I sold a factory sealed VHS from 1984 of the original Vanishing P for $175.00!
  8. Crime of arrogance.
  9. That's wicked!!!!!! Did you guys know the Mustang was named Cougar up until 3 months before production. And NO the Mustang was NEVER named after the plane. How do I know this, well I have personally talked to Iacocca, Gale Halderman and Joe Oreos back in the day and all three confirmed the only mention of the plane was an ad executive that wanted to use the plane in ads. Gee, instead they used the horses. Early concept......
  10. I think I was 10 (1974) when I built my first kit. The ones I remember the most were a 66 Mustang coupe, 69 Camaro coupe, 70's style custom van (maybe a Dodge) and a Freightliner flat nose. I also remember later building the USS Constitution with it's many many tiny little 3 piece canons. My Pop had some old linen so I made roll up sails that looked much better than the open plastic ones. I gave up modeling in the early 80's then got back to it on my 30th B-Day (1994) when my sister got me the 94 Mustang coupe kit for X-Mas. Almost set up here in my new house to get back to building, need to get some new paints and decide what kit to build first. For sure gonna be a Mustang.
  11. Love that color! Seats are rock'n!
  12. Mine had to air out for 3 days to get rid of that nasty chemical smell. But it's been great so far and now my back no longer hurts when I get up in the morning.
  13. RIP you funny man. Just found this movie on VHS. Not bad, kinda funny........ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostage_for_a_Day
  14. I bought that movie on Blu-ray. It includes a very informative making of doc, check it out.....
  15. I left that forum back in 2020 when it had a couple of anti-vax morons on it spewing their BS. I assume they are gone now and it's only about die-cast and no politics? I wonder if my login will still work?
  16. Sweet dragster, sweet built!
  17. 71 Super Beetle. Auto stick. LOVED that car so much! With my 2nd car, 68 Mustang.
  18. I was on FB for about 2 months a long time ago. Hated it. No idea how my nephew can work for them. Oh wait, he gets paid big bucks, gets free breakfast and lunch, free well equipped gym with showers to use and can get his laundry done for free as well.
  19. Gatemac Arch ...........huh?
  20. "The Cat" looks tasty.
  21. Loved my $20 set of 4 wire caps from Target on my 81 Pony (photo taken 1983).
  22. Love those "Jelly Bean" mags....... But I also love the "Turbines" on my 88.......
  23. Not obscure but a neat find.......... BST 2nd LP found at a thrift shop.....not only is the send away for posters cut out still there on the inner sleeve but it had the original receipt from 1969! The LP played fine.
