  1. i have an Iwata Eclipse and like it because i have it. i learned with it and cannot find anything wrong that doe not trace back to my inexperience and that cannot be rectified with a couple of minutes of behavior modification. like a knife or bottle of wine, the best one is the one you have when you need it. it's a poor workman that blames his tools.
  2. i'll let you do the second one. scroll down on the left you'll see download instructions. do it/ open it/ bob's your uncle Chevy Camaro Pro Stock, Monogram 85-4483 (2018)

  12. understandable. no harm/ no foul.
  13. and Mr Carpet Monster smiled
  14. c'mon now. I was one of those guys also too cheap to buy that option.
  15. interesting twist on the assumed clarity of question wordsmithing. i am referring to the part which encloses the tire & wheel, yet Ace immediately thought of the opposite side of the coin. never gave that part a glance until he brought it to my attention. now i have two conundrums!
  16. hey: it takes a village.
  17. Q: is there a resin sedan body available?
  18. maybe a jumping off point. sorry; this is the best i've got: 32 Ford Jalopy Stock Car, AMT/ERTL 21709P i did have this one, and it was white: 32 Ford Vicky Jalopy Stock Car Model Kit # 21710 | eBay maybe: 32 Ford Jalopy Stock Car Fast Freddy Model Kit 1:25 SCALE. | eBay

  20. two part question since i don't know the correct term: Q #1: wheel or fender ? Q #2: do we like body color, chassis color, contrasting, or a complimentary color ? [prototypical replication not included - someone else has already made that decision] thanks, sid
  21. in one of my "model train" decades, no doubt.
