Heres mine. At first, things look pretty good. Then things start to go wrong. Which leads to this mess!

I believe it was also released as the "Autolite Special". The one I had was molded in yellow.

Got this resin thingy. Looks pretty good!

The original was a classic, Ive watched it many times. The remake, not so much.

I like that Silverado! What do you use to polish the plastic? I recently got some "Ultra Restore" from Innovative Hobbies. I tried it out on an old 40 Ford molded in black and it works so well that paint is not needed.

Thats pretty slick! Pro touring is definitely not my bag, but this and that green Duster of yours might change my mind!

Beautiful!

David and Bill have the answer!

Thats the one Ive been waiting for! Jimmy Flintstone, ebay?

Wow dean had some stuff Ive never seen before. What about the ITC 1940 Mercury Convertible? Ive seen only a few pics online, though someone on the other forum managed to get two of them.

I like a lot of what David had to say. Get rid of the fake cautions, the green-white-checkers, top 35 guarateed, and have everyone treated the same. I guarantee you that Robby Gordon doesnt get treated like Jimmie-Jeffy-Denny-Junior. And I like Junior. End the stupid chase thing. Even the best have bad days or bad months, closing up the points just isnt racing. And that "seeding" thing based upon wins is a terrible idea. Get rid of the provisionals, if a previous champ or winner cant make the field, oh well. And do that short track qualifying-trophy dash-heats-main formula. Now THAT would make nascar exciting again! As far as "golden boys" thats been a rumour for many years. Like many others, I find some circumstances so suspicious that it does make one think.

Hmm, when I go to the models-automotive section there is a direct link just below the search bar to resin.

My hood doesnt look anything like that. I'll dig it out for pics.

Wow, I dig that color, and what a great job on the decals!

I have an original direct from the kit. Do you want it?

That is so nice, I sure dig it! No wonder you won! Well, you didnt really win, it was more like dominate!

My sad little stalled project.....I couldnt decide between lowrider, pro touring, vintage 70's street machine....Arrrgh!

I sure did. That was pretty much my life from 65 ish to 70 or 71. Those are called "wing cars" and pretty much the 2k version of what we ran circa late 60's. Heres a pic of one Jairus built replicating the way they were made in the 60's ( I hope you dont mind me using your pic Jairus ). The second and third pics are of parts Im gathering for a build off on Slotblog.

Yea guys, take note, Mike was NOT the culprit. I didnt think to clarify until I saw his post. Sorry Mike!

I went there last week, the store was a mess, the kit section was in shambles and a lot of the jar paints had been opened and spilled into the display. Not only did they have ZERO recent releases and nothing I wanted, I spied the Revell 34 Ford snap kit. The OLD one, dark blue on the boxtop with those ugly flame stickers, it was $21.99!! Thats insane. As I left I remembered why I dont go to Michaels very often. Last week in my paper there was no 40% coupon, just a 20 or 25% off your entire purchase. My local grocery store does the same kind of thing, they raise the prices on popular items through the roof then have "sales" where the "sale price" is still higher than the everyday price was. And Im not talking about 5 or 10 or 20%. Some items are 100 and 200% more.

Chris, you sure are a talented builder!

Wow, that is fantastic! I love it!

Good lord what a deal! In my area all ya can get for $5 at a "thrift" store is a downpayment on soiled baby clothes!

Spencer1984 built one I think. I dont know if he is a member here, but I think he frequents "that other place"

Man thats hot!
