  1. Very kewl. Excellent flame job. Nice to see one that's not chopped!
  2. BMF is frustrating but it makes all the difference. Nice job, love those Impalas.
  3. Very nice. Love the air cleaner detail and those killer wheels. Great job!
  4. X2. Winter is when the 'honeydo's' go on the back burner and I get some quality (and quantity) building time. As for driving, be sane, stay off the brakes, watch out for the other loonies and you'll be fine. Winter driving teaches skills that help year round.
  5. It's a good mag, info on resin and diecasts as well as styrene. My wife left my subscription lapse Looks like I'm going to miss 162 until I get reinstated. Sorry Greg!
  6. What Justbill said about Solvaset. I only use it on compound curves or when decal needs to snuggle into a door line or roof flap. Works great, and don't panic when it looks ruined!
  7. Nice job so far Mark. Please post more pics as you go. I'm going to attempt a Tony Stewart chevy in the near future and was wondering how to modify the nose.
  8. It seems the races are all determined in the first turn of the first lap. After that there isn't much action at the front. I don't care much for road courses, either.
  9. Ghostbusters for the fins and such, but the Monogram Eldo for chassis, engine, interior, almost everything else.
  10. X2. If you can't find it here, you don't need it
  11. I've got a dozen or so books on NASCAR, lots of vintage photos. That and a few years worth of 'Rod & Custom' and 'Muscle Car Review'.
  12. Great find! I've got both of these but haven't got around to them. Have fun!
  13. Love it. Very clean build. Nice color choice.
  14. Too cool for skool, man! Great job.
  15. Very cool. Great color scheme, clean build. I like it a lot
  16. I too usually don't like hoops, but they look great on this. Excellent job!
  17. Another great build, Mark. I love your choice of subjects and the execution is flawless. Thanks for sharing and keep 'em coming!
  18. I had the same issues with their NASCAR Charger. It finally built into a decent replica but it fought me every step of the way.

    Yeah, I grit my teeth paying $22 at the local hobby shop for a snap kit, but support the local economy, right?
  20. I buy primarily from Model Roundup when I buy online. Great guy to work with, excellent service.
  21. I hate you! (just kidding). I can't put an engine together in 3 days. Nice job, love the subject.

    OK, so I'm not a big JJ fan at all. I'm afraid he's been stinking up the circuit for awhile now. But give the devil his due, you don't get to be a 5 time champ by being a chump! And I guess I need this car in my collection for that reason. This is the first (and probably only) AMT snapkit that I've built. Went together pretty well with some tips I've seen on this and other boards. I may have to pick up one of the newer AMTkits, that wing is just awful. Maybe do a Carl Edwards car if he can pull it off this year? Thanks for looking.
  23. I read first. Someone else may have already said what you're thinking.
  24. WOW! Love that blue Buick. The Merc ain't bad.

    My Nascars

    I'm in Woodbury, towards the Kingdom. Smoke is my favorite too, ever since he smacked that cameraman. I've been to the Glen, Dover, Louden, and Richmond. Bristol someday! You shop online or go to a store I don't know about?
