MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. A certain shipping company. Their website won't let me manage delivery of a package (original issue AMT 57 fairlane kit!). When I called I was told only I can manage delivery, on their website of course. They couldn't understand I've been trying funsuccessfully for 3 three days to change it. Thankfully i have a nice neighbor!
  2. Another bloom on my lilacs. I've had one a week for the last 4 weeks. It is an heirloom variety that has only ever bloomed in the spring, just like the one I got the start from years ago. And a red-tail hawkflew over at tree-top height
  3. White decal paper and a punch or circle template of appropriate size? just remember "ho scale" slot cars (I beleive they are 1:64) are not the same scale as HO scale trains (1:87) when you calculate the size. I assume you are looking for the roundels behind the numbers on historic race cars.
  4. Or perhaps the Area 51 book series? We at least know there is not a UFO in the crate, the crate is too small, (unless it is an orb).
  5. As a Ford guy, I would consider buying one if they were re-released. Nostalgia for my younger years before I saw the light! But I wouldn't try brush painting it this time. And I'd consider a heart transplant from anything non-Chevy.
  6. All 10 jars of salsa and 9 jars of bread-and-butter pickled jalapenos and hot peppers I canned yesterday sealed. On the negative side, I'm feeling the hours of standing today. I could use some of that Ibuprfen, if I were allowed to take it.
  7. I know the Moon pedals, but what are the first two pics?
  8. People behind the wheel who are too busy to drive.
  9. A warning shot. If we don't do something about all of the violence, the intergalactic federation will take action to prevent the spread of it. I have seen a bunch of the claims of it being an alien craft.
  10. New Ollie's here still has pretty empty shelves. No kits since opening week.
  11. I agree. A street version Cyclone would be on my my list of must buys.
  12. I would agree that a trans-kit would be great for a 100% accuratebuild, but not necessarily if you just want a custom front end. Or perhaps a truck that was just cobbled together from salvage parts enough to keep it on the road.
  13. Just to be clear I have not built any of theses as a kit-mingle/ bash yet. I have compared both a 32 Vickie (2 door) and a phaeton (4 door). All of the srpues have identical parts, other than the body, the interior buckets, wheels, and induction (4 bbl, 3 carb, and 6 carb are the variations in my kits) )options for the 427. The bodies and buckets from both kits fit both fender sets. The Switchers kit has different sprues, but the bodies and interiors fit on the fender units ftom the phaeton.
  14. The bodies and interiors from the switchers series 32 fit the phaeton fenders and chassis, so maybe that route?
  15. Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact. Carl Sagan
