  1. Water you guys talking about I thought glue came from old horses.
  2. Saw a video little while ago while doing research on the Jo-Han kit brand. Steve Magnante was the host and he was unboxing I believe some USA oldies series kits. That's the video where I found out Jo-Han stands for John Hanley, the creator of the company, and not pronounced as "Yo-Han" and not some Japanese dinky toy type brand that I had origianlly thought at the time since I never really knew the history about the company. That was a good video to watch. Typically though I don't waste my time watching you tube very often, just that one Steve hosted was cool, plus the model kit TV show he had breifly was neat.
  3. Meant what I said; started on the Impala last night; got mostly everything painted and assembled the interior. Assembled engine this morning, wheels'll be this evening. Should be completely done on Friday at the latest.
  4. Coupla things; my dad finally sold the set of Thrush mufflers that were on our car when we got it. $60 richer now. But then he also had the exhaust system replaced on his truck, namely the muffler and pipes. He'd been patching the original muffler for the past 3 years or so but it was really loud lately and it was done, so were the pipes. But the factory exhaust/muffler lasted 14 years under that truck so that's great.
  5. Looks a bit out of proportion; looks like an Ai rendering to me, but it is quite cool; neat idea for someone to make a model like that
  6. Got side-tracked fixing the wheels on my '53 Stude since I took the original tires off to use for my '69 Galaxie, and then a set from that kit I just put in the Stude box to put them on next time I take the supplies out so the '63 Impala has gone literally nowhere in the past 4 days. All I did was pick out a different rim/tire combo. Planning on actually starting today for sure.
  7. That drag '57 T-bird is actually a really cool idea; I drew a drag '57 T-bird in highschool and called it "Atilla the Thun" (instead of Atilla the Hun). Thought that would be a cool name enblazoned across a drag Thunderbird.
