Absolutely correct. 91 octane non ethanol.

It's not too far off the highway, and there's a massive car show and swap meet this weekend. There a ton of old iron running around where I live and work. Directly behind where I took the photo is a detail shop withba late 60's impala and I believe an late thirties chevrolet. Both derelict. I posted the one on here before.

Thank you. It definitely has an aggressive look from the front. As soon as it's finished I want to get some pictures in the daylight. Like any project, all the small details take the most time. Thanks again 👍

That's exactly the lesson I've learned. I've always had an aptitude for all things mechanical, as a kid was dead set on doing that as a career. Fast forward 10 or so years, even the change from automotive to industrial didn't help. Just flat out hated it. Decided to get my welding certs, changed careers and never looked back. 12 or so years doing that, life could not be better. Home owner, no crazy debt, needs are more than met and best of all I actually enjoy working on vehicles and projects again.

I learned the hard way that this idea is the easiest way to destroy a passion for something. Also, good on you for how your children turned out as adults. I watched far too many of the people I've know since childhood struggle or just flat out fail because they did not have that push from their families.

It's hit or miss me as well. The search just gives me options of multiple stores, hobby lobby ect. Still gotta do some leg work. At least you found the kit you're looking for.

Creative solution. More great work, sir.👍

It's fairly simple to find what stores in your area stock them. Search model kits nearby or walmart model kits nearby. The results should show up, and the store number/location where they are. My local does not stock any, but two stores fairly close by do. Their app does the same, I don't use it, but my wife does. It's not the best app according to her. Hopefully this helps.

Moon disc, or the cadillac Sombrero

I've listened to hours of his interview's, truly a legend. R.I.P.

These are my favorite year camaro. What's the plan for the build 🤔.

Great looking vette. I really like that color, the engine compartment shot looks o.e.m. Very nice job.

Just a teaser shot. Next time this will be under glass.

He's a very talented guy, sometimes his style isn't my thing. His Bugatti project showed a ton of expertise and skill, I enjoyed that.

You have almost as many bodies painted as I have in my stash. I'm up to around 40 kits.

I've got the '34 almost completed, and the vette needs clear and foil. I'm limited with free time, so one at a time seems to work out better as far as getting something done. Plus I work slow and methodical. The '34 has finally gotten on my nerves to the point where I just want it done, told myself no more adding, no more changes. Just finish it.

Great looking build.

Cool little hot rod, sounds great and should be a blast to drive.

I've done the same with testors paints, and black paints in general. I must have 10 different variations, and yet I still end up mixing a color.

I'm still trying to figure out how guys have 3-4 or more going at one time. Any of my back burner kits kinda gnaw at my brain, as I tend to hyper-focus on the task at hand.

My local store doesn't carry any but the store in Gloversville does. Store number 1806. Albany new york area.

My wife and I looked forward to the racetrack opening up today, yearly thing we do. Usually a big swap meet, catching up with people and just getting out of the house after winter. Mother nature had other plans, wind,rain and cold. The track called off racing, the swap meet was 1/4 of the usual. I hope next weekend is better, we've got 3 days planned at Rhinebeck, it's an absolutely huge car show and swap meet. I really don't want a season of disappointment.

Good to hear you're on the mend.

That's what I have
