Eshaver replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Considering that the 1966 Nova isn;t a artist;s rendition and it does come , yes , Id buy one . Otherwise , Ill pass -
I'm envious as I now live in a Vintage 1977 Ford Econoline RV and I have no space to even open a box of model parts

Eshaver replied to Shelby 427 1965's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)

Interesting Corvair.
Eshaver replied to Johnt671's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That was a Corvair Spyder model. The Skirts would have been better off on something else -
Barry, I have mentioned this before . Here it is again ! To begin , the pumps SUPPOSEDLY are copies of Wayne 555's . They are a scale foot too tall. The detail is lacking in the dial face and the FISH BOWL lenses , for get them !!!!!This station here is completely scratch built using Foamcore . Generally , I usually build my own as I restore the real thing and I have access to the actual dispensers

Looking for clubs , stores etc in Oregon
Eshaver replied to Eshaver's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Well Jon , I guess you see why I have no use for the state . I used to live in Cave Junction after i got so fed up with the silliness of LA and LA county . The ONLY reason I didn't try to relocate in Portland is the cost of living . -
Looking for clubs , stores etc in Oregon
Eshaver replied to Eshaver's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Thanks Jon . I used to live right in the middle of Hollywood years back . I have NO Desire what so ever to return to anywhere in California . My book editor is in San Rafiel and I 'm going to dread driving into San Francisco to deal with her on that level -
Hey folks , Art Forms design , well, my design firm has made the decision to relocate to Bend Oregon . My son will attend Oregon St college hopefully next year and I know that is a five hour stretch South of Portland . I'm wondering what , if any plastic model activity is going on , say Grants pass , Eugene , Salem or so on . I'm also going to need supplies as i have enough kits to keep several builders happy for years .

What are you doing during the upgrade?
Eshaver replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Dave , I have my hands full as I'm finishing an autobiography , "Living Twice " . I co authored the book , "Community in Transition" back in 2014 and as a result , countless people I deal with on faceless book have BEGGED me to do my own story . Meanwhile , I have a friend on another Message board who I helped in doing her book, "The Sky Turned Green and the Grass Turned Blue by Diane Kelly . Now since NONE of this has a thing to do with Plastic modeling , I suggest you go to Amazon and actually read my revues to the Sky Turned Green and the Grass Turned Blue . I'm also getting ready to see my son graduate school and I'm still working on the Village Diorama . If that weren't enough , I'm also relocating later this year to Bend Oregon -
Ever since Chrysler got rights to the Jeep away from AMC , licensing rights got down right insane I think this is a major factor as to why we haven't seen any AMC model kits
