  1. I agree , fantastic looking car, just a couple of details to take it over the top, add the water hose between the intake and the water pump, continue the line that runs down at the front of the door through the rocker panel and a little flat black on the inside of the headlight bezel . the trim around the headlight. the line at the rear of the fender. the hose between the intake and water pump .
  2. The rolling thing probably goes back to grade school , where we took them out to the playground and raced them down a track we had made on the side of a bank of dirt. A lot of my cars ended up this way.
  3. Merry Christmas Harry
  4. Just take an old nascar kit and splice on the front frame and rear suspension . Pretty much put it any where you want height wise.
  5. Went out and watered the garden , picked 4 medium sized slicing tomatoes, a pint container of cherry tomatoes and 4 medium sized bell pepper . Weather thru the new year forecast is in the low to mid 70s . Still waiting on the sign of freezing weather to move the garden inside . All of the plants are in old recycling bins with cages for portability . I should be able to have fresh tomatoes and peppers all winter with this setup .
  6. If the paint clogs up the filter , get the paint ready to spray ( thin with the appropriate thinner ) and then filter it . The paint should be quite thin enough to go thru the filter then.
  7. I just picked up a glue bomb too , will be watching this.
  8. Really feel for you guys , up in all that, it's going to be cooler here for the next couple of days ( mid to high 60s) then back to the low 80s for a couple , ten day forecast average is 73 , not bad for December . Haven't had any cold ( sub freezing ) yet , still have tomato plants growing and blooming . We don't usually get the colder stuff until January or February.
  9. Looks like the 68 Mustang ,
  10. That's gorgeous , and 1/72 Wow. I have a 1/32 I've been putting off forever , if it would turn out like that I'd start tomorrow.
  11. That's what happens when you try to deal with a communist country where you have no rights, just to save a buck. Ask Franklin Mint how well that works out.
  12. Cliff it's not fair to be posting pics of real cars as models. I found your car running at the strip. ]
  13. Yeah , but didn't all the Monte Carlos dashes have the wood burl trim overlay and all the SS dashes were black with silver trim.
  14. A beautiful 80 degree day , after the rain this morning , sitting out on the patio watching my tomatoes ripen .
  15. Not really a question about the primer , more of just a statement , metal car , white primer, no red. and I haven't seen the complete kit , so your question is quite reasonable . I'd prime the red parts , then a coat of silver , then prime again , that usually takes care of the bleed thru.
  16. Just find a 59 chevy and swap the windshield.
  17. Harry, if there's anything that's constant, it's change, we all have to deal with it in varying ways. Take your time and get well, things will sort out, you have a lot of people who care about you and want you to get back and on with your life. You have a great opportunity to change things now to better suit your situation. We'll all be here waiting for you and praying for you.
  18. What red ? Metal car , white primer ?
  19. Good to hear from you Harry, we're all praying for your speedy recovery.
  20. Here's hoping for a full and speedy recovery . Our prayers are with you Harry.
  21. That's what I was thinking.
  22. CH 50 is Ernest T Bass, according to an internet pic I found. What does LE-5 look like ?
  23. Dale hasn't been relevant for the last 5 or 6 years, got too much too fast, no drive left. he's got all the money he needs and sponsor keep throwing it at him because of his name and popularity. never will win a championship.
  24. anything that's in China is theirs if they want to take it.
  25. tonight ought to be a barn burner.
