  1. Awesome work Scott! I can't wait to hear it run!
  2. That was going to be my next question. I was wondering if they would go around curves easilly. I need to put some on my 76 LTL 9000 and there's a sharper curve than what you have. I may have to hand paint it at that point.
  3. Man, that's lookin sharp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are those Microscale black pinstripes?
  4. Hey Randy, can you please let us know when you have it cast into resin. I would really like to have one!!!!!!!!!!
  5. Ben

    Drop test!

    It hit so hard that the tires and wheels changed!
  6. I think it looks cool! Capt. Nemo would be proud!
  7. I'm pretty sure Plaskit in Canada has a Qualcomm setup.
  8. I can't get over how a model company that has never made truck kits before can come out with some that are far superior to any other truck kit that has ever been produced??????? Even the Revell kits, when they came out were great kits but they still had lots of inaccuracies and things that could have been done so much better. Why Moebius, why couldn't you have started producing kits yeeeaaars ago! LOL
  9. Wow, sounds like your a pretty great guy! Someone is going to get a really awesome little buggy!
  10. It would be a crying shame if you didn't have that engine and trans cast into resin before you install it!!!
  11. The Stereo Lithography machine would superceed that.
  12. I'm not positive but I think the old Otaki Mustang kit was 1/16 and had those Magnum 500 wheels. It's pretty hard to find though.
  13. Ahh memories. I remember when the wood parts actually came with the bark removed and the rock wheels were almost round. Everything was preweathered and they gave you some buffalo blood to detail paint things. I couldn't wait to tear the animal carcass off to look at all the pieces! The instructions were a bit confusing though as they were just symbols.
  14. That's what I thought!
  15. Ok, picture this, a large white room, very well lit. An air ride chair with an air cushion seat that is heated. The chair itself swivels and is motorized. There's a cold beverage dispenser with water, sodas and iced tea, a food dispenser that has all kinds of quick snack foods. At one end of the room is a vacuum sealed, enclosed paint booth with down draft. At the bench there are motorized racks that hold all your paints so that with a push of a button you can search endless colors. An xacto knife blade dispenser that spits out a perfect blade whenever you need one. On one side of the room, there's a giant flat screen tv that doubles as a computer monitor. A sound systems that rivals any movie theater. Along another wall is a full miniature machine shop with a lathe, milling machine various size brakes, drill press, CNC milling machine and a Stereo Lithography reproduction machine. A beautiful brunette that pops in and says..."honey can I give you a back rub?" then hands you the latest kit that has been rumoured to be released but nobody knows for sure yet and they she tells you she added two more to the kit warehouse so you could have extras. She then hands you a home cooked meal and immediatly leaves the room so you can work in silence. Wait........what were we talking about again?
  16. Jarda, if you decide to build that big lowboy, I have all the correct wheels and tires that are used on the Jeep, lowboy and stinger.
  17. I'd love to watch the crowds reaction! That's too cool!
  18. It's funny, Leo is working on a 359 transfer dump for me that is painted the exact same way, colors and all!
  19. Sorry about the three pieces of "glass" not being molded in clear. At the time, there wasn't a way to have them done in clear. There's several things I want to change on the sleeper including having the glass done in clear.
  20. Awesome! That's my sleeper that Jamie cast. I made it to be able to make an Eagle Brougham.
  21. Yeah, your right, it's not that great! You better carefully box it up and send it to me and I'll send you a brand new Bill Signs kit so you can try again!
  22. If your going to restore the other cabover, it would be wise to hang on to the tree growing Freightliner as there may be a lot of parts you can use and those trucks are not easy to find to get parts from nowadays!
