  1. A timeless Classic. Looking great so far !!!
  2. You could also use an old mousepad as a base to strech the aluminum. It's just firm enough to allow the metal to strech.
  3. This is fantastic. Thanks for taking the time to show everybody Bill, your models are awesome.
  4. Just ordered some. THANKS Dave !!
  5. nice work.
  6. Forget 2012. I'm waiting for Comet Hale-Bop to come back and "collect" all of us.
  7. take the area you want the rust to be at and put on a couple of coats of Tamiya liquid cement. Wait for the area to soften (10 seconds) then dapple the area with toothbrush bristles or press rough sandpaper into it. Let dry. Paint as usuall then dry brush the area with rust colored paint or pastel chalk to your tastes.
  8. Actually I'm trying not to think about it at all.
  9. Two thoughts come to mind : "Just because you can dosen't mean you should" "To much money, Not enough brains"
  10. Very nice. What kit is that and what scale is it.
  11. Called Al's, Venture, Chicagoland, Royal, Des Plaines, Hobbytown and even Hobby Lobby. Nobody has them. I don’t get it. I can of course buy it online but what about my LHS, they want support but can’t get the "NEW and HOT" in stock without me having to special ordering/pre pay it from them ??? I can order it myself for that matter.
  12. Man o man I'm so jealous!!! I can’t even get one of these things from my local hobby shop. And I live in the suburbs of Chicago !!! The hobby shops in this area have really DECLINED BADLY. Spectacular work by the way.
  13. Well done. The 32 is a very novel idea. Both are nicely done.
  14. Probably a well orchestrated move by the FIA. Considering that it looks like Renault and Alonso will be excluded from his home race. Takes away Alonso’s plea about it being unfair to his fans. I’m sure Schumacher will do well. And ticket sales will soar. But I hope his comeback isn’t similar to Brett Favre’s.
  15. It probably gets by because the person in China thats making the mold has never even seen a 62 Impala SS.
  16. This guy is a PSYCHO!!! plain and simple.
  17. I have used him 3 times in this year for parts and a 32 sedan body. All of it is first rate and fast delivery. I bought my stuff off of his E-bay store. Not a single problem.
  18. Scale Motorsports Cobra Daytona Coupe. Fantastic.
  19. The Car and truck models might not have all that many parts. But are you aware that card models of ships regularly have over 3,000 pieces ? Yamaha has downloads on their website that you can build some of their most popular bikes like the Shadow and Moto GP bikes. They have several hundred parts. All that need to be cut out, shaped correctly and assembled into 3D pieces. Quite an art form !
  20. I build Card models also ...I'd love to see them.
  21. FORD…Free of Republicans and Democrats.
  22. Thats nothing to LAUGH about Harry...thats the NEW IMPALA from Goverment Motors.
  23. Sirius or XM Channels 113 or 126.
  24. In not to long there won't be such a thing as "American" motors. They will all be owned by China, India, Japan ot Italy.....
