rattle can man

Waited an hour in line for them to serve 8 people. asked them not to attempt delivery of a package since they cannot get up my snow covered driveway. I was going to pick it up today. It is now out for delivery again.

I was just looking at it as an inexpensive option from a store that sells cheap stuff. But I was wondering if it really works since this is in a clearance store and I've never seen it anywhere else.

Has anyone tried name brand, sunlight cured body filler? I've never heard of it before. I guess it is just similar chemistry to any material that sets with UV light. A small, local shop that is a clearance/ liquidation type of store has some (likely at or near expiration date).

Them. And, at least for today, almost everyone in town here.

nice looking build. There are Fronenac speed parts for model T four bangers in the AMT 1927 model-T phaeton kits (at least thin the XR6 double kit. Laurel and Hrady, and vintage police car versions for sure) and there were Model A speed parts in the double kit of the Ala Kart and Model A. From Revell. the 31 Model A sedan and '29 model A pick-up have four banger speed parts. Both Revell kits used the same parts, possibly Ansen?

looking good! strangely, I like the look of the body with no front fenders, and the roof sitting that way makes me think chop the top.

city patching potholes. Use a leaf blower to get the snow and standing water out, shovel in some cold patch and move on. no attept fo even level it,, so the next time they plow, it's rinse and repeat.

people. but not the people on this forum.

earlier this year my local Michaels did clearance out all of their model kits and supplies, along with a huge chunk of the other craft stuff. There were 0 kits for about two months. They have completed a reset of the store and the shelves now have about the same amount space dedicated to models. But the selection is limited.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those affected by the fires, including first responders and their families too. I know everyone whose house/ business burned will have some tough choices ahead of them. Hopefully they find the cause/ culprits, the looters, the drone operators and the scam artists sooner rather than later.

I love snow, just not people who don't have a clue on how to deal with it. We got 14 inches of snow a week ago. As of today, some two-way streets are still only one lane wide (even at traffic lights), turn lanes not plowed. People saying their streets haven't been plowed (with security video to prove it), but city says all have been done once, working on second passes. They have moved onto repairing the patches their plows ripped up with ice and water still in them. Gave up on getting someone to plow my driveway Friday and a postal truck slid off of it into my yard tonight. Winter was so much easier in Alaska. Everyone respected it, drove and planned accordingly. Just put down sand (road salt doesn't do much in double digit below 0 temps) and plow only major snowfalls. The pavement will be there in a few months. Along with the mosquitos.

Well, on the bright side of not being able to drive with an in-op camera, you won't get a ticket/ citation for faulty equipment!!!

Wasn't the engine in the AMT kit supposed to be a 413?

Personally, I prefer straight B-pillars and leaning the A and C pillars in on '30s cars. But it is your build and you can do it as like it. That is the beauty of building model cars. On your original post, unless I missed it you could have lengthened the doors and door windows. you said your engine choice meant surgery to the interior to allow foot room, so the doors would need to be longer for access anyway.

drill out the gauge faces back the openings with clear sheet and then glue gauge faces behind? If your model is not a convertible, will any yellowing be very obvious?

The derivative '29 Ford roadster and Mod Rod kits from AMT Lesney had them too. These two kits mixed different parts from the original double kit

Just stickers to mask the stars? or is there something designed specifically for this?

I have used canopy glue to make "glass" windows for mode RR structures and after three years it has not yellowed. Clear paints are an option. Just avoid enamels because they tend to yellow with age.

tech in and of itself is not necessarily bad. It is how we apply it and use it. We seem to be losing the art of critical thinking and placing blind faith in technology.

Had flat on Monday. no less than 6 warning lights and three messages on the dash when I put the spare on. The genius at front desk at the repair shop had no clue why the ABS, traction control, adaptive cruise control, etc. lights came on with the spare bolted on.

my parts bins alone take up 2 2'x4' shelves

Gauge decals are available from Gopher Racing, other decal companies, and also on that auction site we all hate. You might have to search their websites for the specific gauges and sizes you need. As for clear covers, how about using punches and clear plastic sheet?

Warning sarcasm here: Why do you need to understand something? That's what engineers, repairmen, chemists, et al. are for. What baffles me is when someone says we couldn't build the ancient monuments today even with our tech. Of course not. The higher tech society becomes, the more we forget and the more dependent (and vulnerable) we become.

Thanks, but that is my starting kit (well technically it is a '60s issue). I believe the different years had a lot of similar parts, but each annual kit had one or two differences. I'm looking to find parts that will look good with the custom station wagon roof from my stash.

Are those Jägermeister decals with yellow or gold?I need a set with gold. I had a paint reaction ruining the hood paint and decals on a BMW hood. I ordered aftermarket replacements, but they were yellow, not gold
