Welcome to the forum. I like the tailgate on that green one - the interior looks terrific too! How low can you go?

That was me that mentioned the purple pond. I'm going to do thinned Elmer's glue on the dice.

Anytime I've touched paint to flocking the paint just flows into the flocking. I think the dots have to be done first. The Fiats are in the purple pond.

I'm thinking of drilling the holes, attaching a wire or string, and then trying trying some Fuzzi Fur (flocking) on them. Hopefully they'll look like the fussy dice of olden days.

Oh Nick replied. That's probably where I got confused, but remembered that I saw the 2 together. Thanks for getting me straight. I thought we're supposed to keep our language clean here. You used that 4 letter word (cold white stuff from the sky). Supposed to be sunny and 75 down here on the central left coast of FLA.

Yo Lyn. It was great seeing you and your Mom yesterday. Hopefully we made some progress. Your collection has certainly dwindled since the last trip. Terry was amazed! We both had a great time and are looking forward to the next trip.

Didn't Nick Winters post that '57 Chevy as his build?

DWC43 - you can buy the Empi Imp shown in my avatar. I can provide specifics if you're really interested.

That UFC stuff and the like is too violent. I like the fake stuff on WWE. I wondered what happened to Lashley. Didn't like Lesner. The diverticulitis is no big deal. The VA cut my throat open a few months ago to do the needed repairs. I'll go with Santa taking down the pumpkin in the 3rd round - unless the Easter Bunny interferes.

fedEx dropped off the Extang full tilt tonneau I ordered for my new truck. It wasn't supposed to be here until Monday. Already installed it. Dual exhaust goes on Tuesday. Hopefully the graphics will be here next week and then I can post some pics.

I didn't get it yet because I just ordered it online - a Carney Plastics 21 car display case. Merry Christmas to me. Merry Christmas to me. Merry Christmas to meeeeeeeeeeee. Merry Christmas to me. (supposed to sing to the tune of Happy Birthday to You). My wife is actually going to pay for it though.

I never argue politics or religion. Can't win at either, so why try? I think we're having fun and it's a relief from dusting and cleaning the bathrooms. The windows in my truck need cleaning before going to the Round 2 Model Car Storage event in the morning. I'm just one of those people who still believes in fantasy - Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, Great Pumpkin, and PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING! A couple of years ago I met The Animal, Dave Batista, in the Washington-Reagan National Airport. We talked for a few minutes. What a nice guy. Nice until he gets in the ring against the Undertaker. Okay. Okay. I'm going to clean the truck windows. PS - we're having fun, aren't we?

You gotta be kiddin' me!! There's no Santa Claus? I believe in Santa. And even saw the movie that proved it - Miracle on 34th Street. What about the Easter Bunny? Come on, you gotta believe in something. How about God? Nobody I know has ever seen Him but there's a ton of people who believe in Him.

I was channel surfing yesterday and there it was - ECTO 1A - right on the TV set. It's still raining here after 2 1/4" rain yesterday. Now the grass is going to grow and need to be cut. But that means the reindeer will have to be moved before cutting. And then moved back. The heck with it - I'm going to Daytona!

The Lindberg '35 Auburn isn't the greatest kit around. The 2 piece body and 2 piece rear fenders annoyed me but I liked the body style - but changed it. I used 23" Pegasus Ts, Chevy 409. NExt time I get one I'm going to cut the grill out of the shell and replace with something else.

Nice looking El Camino. Where's the boat? DWC43 -the dune buggy appears to be an EMPI IMP, if that helps.

I really hate it when people keep rumors going - Mr. Rogers was NOT a sniper - he was never even in the military!!

Model CARS magazine forum. Where does it say boats?

I found a set of the Caddy lights from an old Merc kit. I'll bring them Sunday. I usually don't put mirrors in my builds so probobly wouldn't need any dice - but I'd like to see them. maybe I'll start installing mirrors.

Ecto 1A. The Ghostbusters car. Yeah. It's '59 Cadillac. They were available as a custom option on '49 Merc kits. They were chrome so would need to be cut off the main part and painted red.

What is an ecto 1a? Couldn't the taillights be made from something? I guees we'll have to look closely on Sunday.

Looks good Chuck. Love the color.

Mark, Nine years ago I finally had enough of the Illinois weather and left Aurora for Citrus Springs, FL. Been lovin' every minute of it. Unfortuantely, I'm required to attend ViêtNow National Board meetings on a quarterly basis in Rockford. Next trip is in January. Please ask everyone you know to turn on their heat full blast and open their doors and windows in an attempt to raise the temperature.

Beautiful model. Everything looks perfect! WOW.

Glad to hear you're doing well, Clay. Keep it that way! Don't volunteer for anything. Keep your weapon(s) clean. Eat and eat whenever you can. Don't eat yellow snow. Thank you for taking time from your life to serve our country. God bless you and God bless the USA. SEMPER FI.
