Eshaver replied to dalepadgett's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I have known Norman a good twenty something years . The guy don't screw around . I know , not having a fancy web page does tend to make folks leerey of not dealing with a stranger . Still, I personally have used many of his parts when the need arises . Check out the "Mod Squad figures" he does sometime ! Ed Shaver Here are his Mom - Pop and the Kids being used : -

Moebius International Lonestar Sleeper Cab
Eshaver replied to Art Anderson's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Art, given the dimensions of the box,and the two lb weight , I bet the truck will retail at 150.00 U. S. I best hope Michiaels decides to carry this one . I will have to use a coupon ! Ed Shaver -
Bottled Flat Aluiminum Paint - Suggestions?
Eshaver replied to larrygre's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Larry, years ago, I used to sell a brand of paint in 1/2 pint cans known as "Fix-All" . they sold in hardware stores like Ace. They also had Black and Brown too. You might also look into what Michiaels sell in the "Small " bottled Acrylic paints too like Folk - Art brand........ Ed Shaver -

1960 Ford F-100 Pick Up
Eshaver replied to Carmikeman's topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I know for a fact that Ed Fluck did a 60 F-100 . I saw it and I even spoke to Ed shortly before he passed away on the master , an old A M T kit was used . Seems to me that Model haus might beable to help in some regards too. Ed Shaver -

Restomodding an annual
Eshaver replied to LOBBS's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
In fairness to everyone who thinks I'm biased towards Ford , I have had a couple of the 1968-72 Chevrolet trucks , both were converted into wreckers . Both would do the job of Any Ford and then some ! Too bad Chevrolet went so downhill after 1972. Hey style , durability, and longevity would still make me consider a decent restorable one . Ed Shaver -
Jeff, does this mean we MIGHT see one of you from the area to visit either a North Carolinia or heaven forbid a Virginia contest/ show ? I'm far more willing to part with my money on something I can see . Sorry but several of the revers I have read revues from have slanted their opinions as to what is an aint, take the Trumiteer 1960 Bonnivile for example ....... Ed Shaver

Look, before I get more hateful "KOMMENTS" bout me being a RIGHT WINGER, uh get a couple of Michiael Savage's older books avalible through Amazon on Nutrition. I have seen both and I beleive the man knew then what he espoouses now on his radio show when he aint preachin politics . Now I have a somewhat high heart rate , I have to watch my diet too. I'm also aware of my Emphazemiea and that dosen't help a lot neither . Still, Im very proud of you all for at least taking a self motivated step and trying to do something for you're own health !!!!!!! Hoo Wray!!!!!!!!!!!! Ed Shaver

Now ya'll be speakin evil bout fuel, the Ecoveggies want us all to tap into the Stratigic Oil reserve so we can deplete it and go to a bycicle ......... Racing gasoline is already high enough. Don't give these idiots anything more to whine about ! Ed Shaver

I just wish they had sent out scribe lines inside the body so we stock and stock hight folks could have had the option. Look, some of us have built "Stock- Hight street rods such as I did for an employer in 1989............. Ed Shaver

TO ALL FRIENDS OF BIG BLOCK LYLE.
Eshaver replied to prostockmodeler's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
An I thought I had it bad . heck, spending a month in a Nursing home , two months in a dang hospital an now tied to an I. V bag sheesh..... Ed Shaver -
Hummmmm, uh 150 grit sand paper might do the trick . I never used it though. If it were me , I might go for a textured paint as a used car lot would have a terrible surface as in most cases . hey, keep it real, some small pot holes , patches , Common. I used to seal coat parking lots part time back in Dallas . You have to go photograph a REAL lot . Ed Shaver
