  1. you know Ed, we have a saying in Dutch "onkruid vergaat niet" it bascially means you cant get rid of weeds and you my friend are a weed (im thinking maybe a dandylion)....you'll be just fine
  2. prayer is more powerfull then most people realize but just to give you a little glimpse of it, read isaiah 38 (somewhat apropriate here) and then consider that Hezekiah was praying by himself...you got dozens of people praying for Amber
  3. like they guys said, it just takes practice just a few days ago i painted a set of wheels from a bike/trailer that were molded in one peice and not extremely defined it didnt come out perfect but it came out much better then i would have done a year ago
  4. paint it bright orange and call it a "maliboey" ? or paint a bunch or rubber hammers on it and call it the "mallot-bu" or "ma-little-bubu'" ?
  5. what i just cant understand is that under the soccer teams they have AZ alkmaar who have won the dutch honours division twice, once in 81 and once in 09 and they do NOT have my hometeam PSV eindhoven who have won the honours division 20 times (ill spare you the years but 5 of those were in the last 10 years) that just fries my pickles
  6. specially if you live in europe
  7. sounds like a good excuse to build that dub what was it ?
  8. i havent been there in a long time and even then it was only for the things that make gremlins disapear
  9. hey guys i know were all familair with acme's licenseplate maker but what about those member who live back in the old world of those models that need to represent an authentic european model (like a morris coupe or a spyker) well....wait no more i came across this site while looking for a european plate to photoshop into a custom for a fellow member here http://www.licenseplates.tv/the_netherlands_holl_2015.html they seem very complete, there is countries on the list i hadnt even heard of (and im from that way) they even have the different front and backs for those wierd countries like france and england that seem to think they need a different colour plate on each side and the best part of it....once you have choosen a country and a plate you can click on it and enter your own text then hit customize, save picture , print and apply
  10. it almost looks like the damages on the hood are contained to the area that would get covered with the black decal maybe you could tape of the good part of the hood and refinish the part that gets the decal ? or (since it is a barebones muscle car) go with a completely black hood or even a slightly damaged one (after all, why spend moneys on making the hood look good if you could drop it into the engine instead) on a unrelated note....new paintbooth ? or do some people actually replace thier filters
  11. you know, i have seen this kit, but bever bothered to look at it twice now that i know what all comes with it (extra engines, roll cage, wheels) the 40% coupon does seem very tempting
  12. i have a complete set of porsche wheels that came with the VW street machine by revell that i could stand trading off drop me a line if your interested
  13. what ever happened to my charger ? (it was post #11) is it in the lineup aswell ?
  14. if we keep changing the rules at the pace were going lets just move this whole thing over to the workbench section and put EVERYTHING in here
  15. donk is slang and should be pronounced "junk"
  16. i have a 69 charger that i am entering into a different OOB CBP that would be perfect for this all that is done is the engine (glued and painted) now,,,,i dont want to be that guy...but if this is an OOB build, and your entering a 67 383 charger...where did the 383 come from and how do the rules aply there ?
  17. this is one of those models you just cant go wrong with i have one planned to build as a panther pink pro street but there are too many project cluttering up my bench as it is
  18. nver realy cared much for this day, never celebrated it back home and i dont intend to di it here iether but it is a great time to pick on my coworker who has the stature of a leprechaun traditonally, each saint patricks day i hide in between the racks waiting for him to pass by when the does i jump out behind him, grab him by the collar and yell "i caught you....now hand over that pot of gold, leprechaun" anyways, here are ALL my green models
  19. nice build but erh....what is foghorn leghorn doing on the hood ?
  20. it seems your charger has put on a few pounds, last time i checked she was at 318 and now 383...what are you feeding that girl ?
  21. since most seat i have are two piece the back is hollow i generally shove a popsicle stick in that hollow and then clamp the bottom of said stick in my paint carousel works for me and...its a great excuse to eat a popsicle
  22. you know, at the rate your going at this build shell have her license before you have this model done (not like im any better, i just glued the body of my wildcart to the frame, it was my entry for a trusck build off that ends on december 31st...2009. im hoping to finish her up this year)
  23. man, your rocking those chargers i almost bought a duster with a 318 a few weeks ago...but the guy couldnt get me a title in his name so no deal
  24. gotta tell you gus, that reminds me of my B5.5 passat i used to have it had a tan cloth interior and i was working as a machine operator at the time i got so dirty working with machines so old you could still see where they used to put the coals in that my seats actually liked like that (the drivers side at least) @ George, im thinking it has something to do with the way i upload them here is the kicker though, when i look at mine they say "resized to 55%" when i look at you qouting mine it says "resized to 99%" and thanks, i like that one too
  25. i thought i had all your period correct wheels ? all the cool ones atleast
