Try it on a plastic spoon.

Scalefinishes paint does not need to be reduced. It is ready spray right out of the bottle.

That turned out nice.
The '66 Hertz is a great kit, and a good looking car.

Harry,
I agree 150%, but you are not the one missing something, it's the model companies that are missing it.
I've done a few class sponsorships at some of the bigger "local" shows, and the exposure can't be beat. All totaled my investment is a bit under $200, but most of my regular customers are coming from those model shows. Definitely a small investment for big gains.
Obviously the big model makers don't need to let people know that they make models, but it never hurts to put out your hand to your customers, and say "Hi".
IMHO,
Jameston

Gentlemen,
I found what you are looking for.

If you search Google images of "ice road truckers" you will find all sorts of pics.
Hope this helps,

M.A.D wired distributors are the best you can buy.
Hands down, one of the finest details you can buy for your models. The caps look spot on, the base is cleanly cast and easy to mount, the wires are long enough to mount easily, and there is enough "plug boot material" in the set to detail both ends of the wires no problem.
Add all that with good shipping speed and cost, along with stellar customer service, and you get parts that cannot be beat.

That is the best looking '69 GT500 I've ever seen. I'm not a big fan of that year, but I like that one. Well done.

Forgiveness, I never ask for permission. LOL.

You definitely will be able to get it mixed at your local paint supplier. If you need any help with paint formulas PM me.

I knew I had it somewhere!
The Mclaren orange is the same color as Renault Chipper orange, OEM paint code 318.
I hope that helps,

Unless you are looking for a specific car that was painted in sponsor colors, most M8Bs would be Mclaren orange.

Thank you. I like to keep my customers happy, and if something gets mixed wrong I'll make that right. Customer service is why I have customers.
Thanks again,
Jameston
Tom: I love that Camaro.

That is great looking. The more I see these built, the more I want one.
The Olds Viking blue is the same color as Chevy Mulsanne Blue.

April fools day is the mother of all non-holidays. It's worse than Halloween.

Which '67 Impala kit is that? I need that engine for my '57 project.

Jay,
PM me, and I'll get all your questions answered.

I think that rollcage looks great.

I finished this yesterday while watching a video for school.
It's the Revell kit, and went together easily, but the stripe decals were a bit of a pain.
Built pretty much OOB except for the wheels. They are Foose Nitrous IIs from StradaSports.com. 19" in front and 22" out back.
I did some light weathering underhood and on the chassis.

Notice any difference?
I "C" what you mean.

I got it! The '69 Nova intake is perfect in fit, and look for what I'm after.
Thank you, everyone who helped out on this. When I start the '57 I'll post it in the WIP section.
Thanks again,
Jameston

This comes from the September 2009 Hot Rod magazine article "New ideas for old Chevys". Steve Stanford drew a beautiful '80s El Camino with the new Camaro frond end, and being a big fan of both body styles, I had to build one.
Starting with the AMT Street custom reissue El Camino I chopped off the nose, and grafted the front fascia from a Revell Concept Camaro kit I got from Chris Batson, who I owe a huge thank you for helping me out.
I decided the stock El Camino interior wasn't going to cut it, so I chopped the rear wall off and grafted it to the front half of the Camaro interior.
Thanks for looking

I hadn't thought of a high rise, I a was looking for the corvette style.
Thank you though,

Is there a kit or an aftermarket resin caster that has a two-four barrel intake manifold that would fit the engine in the Revell '57 Chevy black widow kit? I don't need the air cleaners, just the intake manifold.
Thanks,
Jameston
