    I've been buying from them for several years & recommend them .Their prices are great, especially for paint. I've never had a problem with them & always get my order within a week.

    Lots of goodies from Scalehobbyist.

    These extra parts came with the model & nowhere in the instructions does it show them. Anybody know what these are for?

    I got these for $10.00 each.

    Heres a couple of odd ones I saw in a local junkyard

    I got these in a trade.

    5:00 Am & were still here. Looks like I'll get to finish the '50 Olds after all.

    Goodbye cruel world. Less than a day to go so it looks like I'm not going to get the '50 Olds I've been working on for the past few weeks done.

    I'll be in bed by 9:00. I work at least 6 & mostly 7 days a week & have to be up by 3:45 AM & to work by 5:AM. My Wife & I haven't been out on a Friday, Saturday or week night in years because of the hours I work.

    My Mom stopped by this morning & found these at a rummage sale. $8.00 for everything. The truck, car & paint are all new & unopened. Thank you, Mom!

    We're getting our first Meijers in this area. They're building it now & It's supposed to be open by next June. I"m hoping they carry models.

    This is in the shade on my front porch. Yesterday we hit 102F. We haven't had any measurable amounts of rain at all this summer. Grass is dead, leaves are dying on the trees & the farmers crops are dying.

    I live outside a tiny little town in Kosciuko county about 40 miles west of Ft. Wayne.

    I get models once in a while at Phils hobby shop in Ft. Wayne { 45 miles east of here } & they're actually opening a third store because business is so good. It seems most posts have shops closing up. I'm hoping this is a good sign & more start opening around the country.

    The gold spot is an emblem. I'm not sure about the depression behind it. I checked The model & it doesn't have one, so I'm guessing it's a shadow or the angle I took the picture.

    The light color is Diamond Green & Mystic Emerald is the dark green. Both are Testors lacquer. My Wife picks out the colors most of the time.

    No. I left it a curbside

    No resin. This is a plastic promo. I had to buy a resin interior for it.

    After setting in a closet for 14 years I thought it was time to put this Poncho together.

    I got it online at Scalehobbyist.com.

    This is an Arii Cadillac I painted Tamiya TS-25 pink. A very enjoyable & different model to build. Other than a very fragile windshield frame that I broke into three pieces & had to put back together the best I could, everything went together easily without any fitting problems. I highly recommend this kit if you like something you don't see at the LHS very often.

    I do have the rear script chromed, it just doesn't show it very good in these pictures.

    I've had this model laying around for over 8 years & finally decided to build it. The kit comes with PE hood hinges & the Bonneville emblem on the grill. The hinges are very fragile & have to be put together. They bent & broke the first time I closed the hood.

    Me & my Wife, Barbara.

    I bought the pink '58 convertible & it was delivered yesterday. I've never heard of Arii so I'm anxious to see how this will look built.
