  1. Just a quick question.When shooting lacquer How soon do you add top coats.Can I just top coat as soon as I am done with the last piece?
  2. I need to read the titles closer.I thought this was about purina trucks not patina trucks.
  3. Can I ask you how this kit was to build?
  4. When I was selling car parts I dident think I had to tell someone who bought a battery to remove the plastic protective caps from the terminals but after they returned it saying it was dead.Well you could see they jammed the terminals over the caps.After that I had tell them with every battery sold,take the plastic off.They would look at me like no chit but I had to tell them.Maybe someone already tried to use it in the pool.
  5. I would love a 65 fury.when I was young dad had a 65 sport fury with a 426 wedge. It was well into the rust stages but surprised more than one car at the stop light.Wish I had it now.
  6. I use a lot of nail polish with my airbrush and spray cans for the basic stuff.I have a badger 150 and a 200.The 200 is a single action and works well for me.
  7. Both the chevette and ford motors were bullet proof.
  8. That right there is a nice hot rod.
  9. Outstanding.....I love the color combination.
  10. I had two chevette's For delivery vehicles at a parts store I managed in the 90's.Oh and did I mention they were both diesel's.Had a diesel ford escort wagon too.
  11. I have not built a pull truck but I did build the misterbraw(sp) pulling tractor years ago.
  12. The sleeper is as big as my first apt.
  13. I think that color is called burnt orange metallic.A few years back a buddy and I raced a 70 RR that color.
  14. Wow.Those headers came out awesome.I need to get some and try it myself.
  15. Those wheel/tire combo is just awesome.The hood is great too.
  16. I feel the same as you Jantrix.I tell my self that I will work on this kit or that kit tomorrow and when Tomorrow is over , I feel like a slacker because I goofed off all day.
  17. And all this time I thought it was just me......
  18. I have had good luck using highlighter markers.
  19. I use excel blades now.My wife works at a injection molding plant and I have her buy a 100 box now and then from the company store.The last time we paid 10.00 a box.
  20. Ok I know,not another stripping question but this is different.I have a kit (IH scout if you must know) that I built a few years back.I dident to to bad a job on it but the color I used just dident send me.Now since the cat knocked it on the floor it needs to be rebuilt.There are no broke or missing pieces so I will do it over in a new color.Now the question is this,If Use my oven cleaner going to remove the clear,the color and the BMF.The BMF is under the clear and if it wont come off I will just cover over it all.What do you think.I know, it's a long story just to get to the question.

  22. I would love one of the leisure sprinter kits.
  23. It's amazing how something that small or the slightest whiff of something can take you back in time.
