  1. I use a Uni-Ball Signa UM-153 white pen for lettering on tires.
  2. I like the SHINY in all of them.
  3. Welcome David.
  4. Thanks Paul, Chris. and Carl.
  5. Built the Foose pickup for an IPMS review. Used Pearl-Ex interference red over black, rolled the pans, and had to paint the bed because the decals disentegrated on me. Very nice kit with a 4 link rear and modern front suspension. I'll probably buy a couple just for the heck of it.
  6. Found it on Amazon. Marcia is Amazon Prime so it costs $10.00 with tax, free shipping and will be here Monday. Thanks for the info.
  7. I really like the 2 piece look to the antenna. My method of a straight pin doesn't look near as accurate. I'll be over to Amazon soon.
  8. Trying to find that tubing online. Vita Needle Company looks promising size wise.
  9. Very cool. Thank you.
  10. What kind of wheels are in the truck kit?
  11. Never heard of it. You might want to try 2 part Bondo for big jobs and Squadron putty for tiny jobs.
  12. I throw them out and buy new ones.
  13. I don't keep track. If I need/want something, I buy it. I bought a '70 Road Runner for $15 and put Zimmerman wheels on it ($20), primer, paint, glue, etc. so maybe $40 or $45 in it? I would guess most are less than that.
  14. Welcome Paul. Whereabouts in FLA? I'm in Citrus Springs.
  15. The Foose FD-100 pickup has metal axles too. The front axle goes right through the engine. Sucks!
  16. Just about every kit has mirrors. Antennas? Use straight pins and cut off the head. After drilling a pilot hole and gluing the pin, put a couple drops of Micro Krystal Klear on the top, let dry, and paint.
  17. The SHINY does it for me. Good build.

    1956 Nomad

    Good looking Nomad.
  19. Iwata has an optional handle that adds like a pistol grip. VERY comfy to hold.
  20. I use Mod Podge for gauge lenses and gluing headlight/taillights.
  21. Good looking build.
  22. I use my Dremel Stylus with some wool pads I got off ebay.
  23. Talk about thinking out of the box. Wonderful build.
  24. Sweet, clean, and SHINY
