I did it yesterday - went online and paid for a 2 year subscription to MCM. Hope the issues get here in pristine condition.

Welcome Joe. I looked at only 1 pic because for whatever reason I have to open each pic individually - I don't do that. I opened the rear end pic and it looks good and your diorama is also interesting.

Whoa dude - that's a very neat looking build. I remember driving a 1:1 with a 4 speed and 260 V8. The little guy had some guts. What color/kind of paint is on that puppy?

Sorry Bill & Len but I have to add you to my hate list. The detail you guys put into little model cars amazes me. You get my hate list because I can't do the things you do - but sure wish I could. Do you like to roof of that kit? I prefer the bubble rear window.

Sorry. Never heard of it or saw it - but I wish I did. Nice looking custom.

I think I'm going to enjoy these posts. Eelco - where did you get those wheels and tires? I gotta have some of them!!!

Long drive - be safe. Take some pics at Kankakee. I bet's it's to watch/drive those buggers. Batavia is a nice area. Used to go over to the VFW for HOG meetings. That was on the west side of the river. The east side had a great burger place. Wish I could remember the name. There used to be vacant land out west on Roosevelt Road. A few miles west of the Ford dealer near Adrian's speed shop (if he's still there).

Pretty cool. That blue one sure has some wheel travel to it. You go somewhere around Rt 59 to run them? Probably not much open land around there anymore. Wait - rock crawlers go slow, don't they. The kids of my best friend were down here a couple of years ago and busted up their R/C car. Very, very fast. They left it with me if I wanted it. If it's free, it's for me. So I spent some time and money and now haven't even started it for over a year. Got a gallon of fuel, spare parts, put on new tires. Can't remember the name ad the only place for parts was Tampa or the internet. I shoulda put it up on Ebay last year.

Hey Joe, I like the Jeeps way up in the air. Are they R/C cars?

Thanks Harry. A new subsription will be going in soon.

Veterans have a special feeling in our hearts for our fallen brothers and sisters. What would a Veteran like to say to those fallen hereoes? How about this - As long as we live, you shall be loved. As long as we live, you shall be remembered. As long as we live, you shall live. That's the inscription from the Canadien Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The flagpole in front of my house flies an American flag and a POW/MIA flag all day, all night, everyday and every night. A flood light illuminates both at night. The only time those flags come down, other than changing out for fresh ones, is when hurricanes come through. Then I bring down the 3' X 5' flags and put up smaller flags. GOD BLESS THE USA!!!

I was there already. Telephone provided but no email address. I'll have to wait until Tuesday to call and ask.

Loaded? I don't want to buy a magazine at the LHS and then get the same issue in the mail. That's all. I would think a publisher would be able to answer what I thought was a relatively simple question.

I'm getting tired of making a 44 mile round trip just to get the MCM magazine, so I thought I might try a subscription. How long after I sign up would it be before I'd get the first magazine in the mail?

I'm not a fan of those wheels but I think the whole looks pretty good. Very nice paint.

This is going no where fast and I won't be wasting time looking at any further "Need a Company name" posts. I'd rather be building - but it's 5:00pm and cocktail time. Since it's Friday night, we're talking pizza, some pool time, popcorn, and WWE. Have a great night everyone.

Got an email that The Model Car Garage is having a 20% off sale through June 4, 2010. You want to check it out. www.modelcargarage.com

If that don't work, I can send you the jpeg file of the hauler I made.

Very nice build. I did one years and years ago. Don't you love the etched glass?

I like both of them. Nice job with the BMF.

You're welcome Qwit Pushin. Back problems prevented me from attending Rolling Thunder XXII demonstration ride this weekend in Washington, DC. No where else can you get over 600,000 bikes together in one place at one time and ride for POW/MIA awareness and Veterans issues. Hopefully I'll be able to make next year. So I'll be headed over to a local cemetery on Monday for Memorial Day ceremonies at 10:00am.

Hey Nick - how about Crazy Towing? And you could put my picture on it. I like the Happy Hooker.

Mine is vented through the wall of my shop - a steel building. I run a 6' piece of 4" flexible ducting from the fan to the wall. There has been no overspray, drips, dust, whatever on the siding. I do have one of those flapper things to keep birds and such outside the shop.

Thanks Mike. The only problem with the cart is that the drawers are too shallow to stand 2 ox bottles of HOK paint in so I had to build a seperate sheving unit to hold them. Still works for me though.

Looks terrific, Matt. Welcome to the forum.
