The trunk is open in the kit so yeah, the whole trunk interior will be flocked. I added a hinge and filled the recess (I think a spare tire was carried back there.

Thanks Nick. It certainly wouldn't have happened if you didn't post the trailer hitch how-to. Please consider submitting the how-to article.

Looks so real that it's unreal. Amazing!

I'm finally getting something done. Here's the interior for my street '33 Willys. I tried my hand at tuck & roll and making my own arm rests w/door handles. There's flocking in there too. The body is painted and cleared and hope to complete it next week.

James - my avatar pic isn't a model. It's a real 1:1 EMPI Imp. And it's for sale. There could be a market (swap & trade) for some of your uncles old models. Some people around here (MCM forum) go nuts for that old stuff.

It's been working for me too. Must have been a hiccup.

Okay Nick. Here you are. And in case anyone is wondering, Nick did a how to tip some time back about making a trailer hitch. I followed Nick's instructions & pics on this build.

I used it on a Ford F150 that hauls the scratch built teardrop trailer. I'll have to take some pics - I'll try to get them up tomorrow.

But it would be good to share with fellow model builders. I followed your instructions & pics without a problem. Come on. You can do it.

Nice rack, Rick. When you finish those models, are you going to put a sheet of plexiglas over the front to keep the dust off?

I like it and might be interested in an XL shipped to Florida.

Welcome to the MCM Forum James. This is a great place to display your builds, ask questions about techniques, find parts, and help each other.

Yo Nick, I think you should submit the how to on making the trailer hitch. I've used your system and it works very well.

Welcome Jim. You've hit the best place for model builders. Lots of talent and people willing to help.

I have an AMX in my stash and plan to build it sometime in the futre. I hope mine comes out half as good as yours. Beautiful details on the engine.

Jody, I got the 21 capacity display case from Carney Plastics for Christmas and it is really nice. Even has a mirrored back. Very well made. I bought a couple sheets of plexiglas at Lowe's yesterday figuring I'd try my hand at a couple of single display cases. I had some finished oak with routed edges that the plexi will fit to. I already painted the base and put ballast on it so it looks like asphalt. Another I might do with grass and another a display like you might see at a 1:1 car show. Check out Carney Plastics though. You might like what they offer.

After reading your posts I went back and photobucket opened right up. Thanks for the quick response.

I can't get into photobucket this morning. My wife can't get into it either. Anybody else having issues with photobucket?

The November 2009 issue of MCM has an article by Mr. Obsessive about using clear acetate for glass.

I got the November issue last week from the LHS. December hadn't arrived yet but it's only going on the end of January.

I like it. Real nice and clean.

I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. Had a chance to rent a new Challenger over the weekend in Chicago. There was a chance for snow so I decided to rent a front wheel drive Dodge Journey instead.

Yo Dave. Lighten up. I was trying to make a joke.

Forget the fine tooth comb - go over the car with a magnet. I'll bid $500.00 for the 'Cuda as is.

I registered and am waiting for the authorization code. Looking at replies here, it looks like the same people will be posting there. Why is that?
