Nah, I may hate the iPhone, but I'll never go back to basic.I'll eventually replace it with a droid. -
iPhone's are so overrated. I HATE mine.
-
Thanks guys. Paint is Model Master Sublime Green Lacquer.
-
I'll take the wheels and tires then.
-
This might help. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0908094/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1

The engine is all wrong in the kit. The exhaust on the 1:1 runs off the front of the engine, the kit is on the rear. The next one I build I'll use the Revell kit.

Paul wasn't in Tokyo Drift, that was Lucas Black.
-
I've had MANY of them over the years. They are nice kits, I just needed some cheap ones to fill up my DIO, so I grabbed them.
-
Thanks guys. Paul Walker was one of my favorite actors and it's sad to realize that there will be no more movies with him. I plan to build quite a few of his movie cars to honor him.

My acquisitions for the last couple weeks.

I was originally building this for my oldest daughter, as she is in love with this car. I didn't go into much detail with it, pretty much just the outside is accurate, other than I didn't dullcoat the wheels. I say "tribute (sort of)" in the title because it's not replicated EXACTLY to the movie car, but the next one will be. Ironically, I finished this on 11/30/2013 at around 6:30pm, which would make it 3:30pm in California, right around the time of Paul Walker's death. That kinda freaked me out. I completed this with a memorial picture I made in MSN Paint. This will still go to my daughter, and I will build another one, along with a few of the other cars he drove in the movies.

$36 for all that??? I want the hook up too.
-
I was thinking the same thing, but didn't want to say anything.
-
These are the 520 tires, whitewall is the same, they just have a smaller sidewall.
-
I got 4 sets of the reverse. Don't like the tires though, replaced those with the 5.20's.
-
Here's 1 of 2 I got in use. These are SUPERB. Here's a thought for you Danny, have you considered truck bed toolboxes?
-
Got them built up. Now to get some wood to build a base/lot, so I can set up all my cars.
-
You guys had almost the exact same order too.
-
I received a couple more quality items from Danny over at Scenes Unlimited.
-
Thanks guys.

I'm looking for sheet styrene about the thickness of a penny. My question is, what thickness would that be? I'm not good with sizes on this stuff.

AMT S-10 "Xtreme"
JamesW replied to Jonathan's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Actually, the Xtreme concept started in 1997. This one is a 97 and badged as an Xtreme. Coincidentally it is also the very first crew cab dually S-10 created (by GM anyway). Rolled out of the Warren, MI plant in June of 1997. It was originally slated for the Brazilian market, but never made it that far. It is still just a concept.

ProStar and Featherlite Transporter
JamesW replied to martinfan5's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I need this trailer in my life. LOL VERY nice work. -
Actually Christine didn't have any Fury badges. I have MANY reference pics of her. I have 3 sets of the correct dual air cleaners in resin, just can't remember who I got them from.
