  1. Larry, pager not found has been an issue for a while. There was a post a while back on the issue. There are certain words that trigger the problem. Read more here.
  2. Thanks John, appreciate the support.
  3. Bil, great minds think alike, I started doing some brush work but then the flu hit me so it had to wait.
  4. Fly soup the waiter explained is a good source of protein
  5. Winner, winner chicken dinner, but I think I’ll have breakfast first.
  6. Hike is something I’ve been trying to get around to for weeks but the weather doesn’t want to cooperate.
  7. Professional told him to lay down on the couch, asked him questions about his childhood building model cars, but in the end his ego was still bruised and battered like that brownie mix he bought last week at the Piggly Wiggly.
  8. Started messing about with the patina. Not sure I like what I have so far. Just did the fenders and they still need a shot of matte clear to flatten them out but don't want to seal the deal on that yet. The patina on the real car is a bit odd as it's different all over the vehicle. There is yellow on the left side fenders, but not the right. Then there is light blue on parts of the body as well as red primer. A real mixed bag. Found a tutorial from @lou s which I used as a starting point. A keen eye will notice that I also enlarged the rear quarter windows a bit, they are longer on the fordor then the tudor.
  9. "Nuts" said the Queen, "If I had them I'd be King."

  14. beyond reasonable restoration
  15. I picked up two of his bodies recently, 40 Ford Fordor and 63 Ford wagon. They were not as bad as what you described Bill but they were not great. Both struck me as something we would have expected 30 years ago, crude with vague details. The 40 I decided not to use as it was not an accurate example and it didn’t fit the AMT fenders it was meant for. Could I have used it? Yes, but with a lot of work. Decided to modify an original Tudor instead. As for the wagon I’m not sure what I’m going to do yet. All the side trim is poor and would have to be redone and the body is very thick. Back in the box for now as there are other options, already purchased, available.
  16. Split rear window OK, split front, ehh not so much.
  17. Begin a sentence with “A-way”, where did that come from?
