  1. Great looking build you have there. Looks like the picture in the back ground.
  2. Looks nice. The colors look great together. Bike looks nice also.
  3. Looks pretty good . What color did you use on the interior? Does not look like the tan on the real one.
  4. Good movie . I remember when he jump on that barge . That would be a cool build.
  5. Believe it or not people there are still parts of this great country where only dial-up is offered. I only have the choice of one high speed service provider here. I hate it. I had to put up with dial-up for four years until I got the high speed offered here. Yes any type of animation just plays heck with the down load time. So please leave it out of your post for the ones using dial-up.
  6. Thanks for all the great pictures you took.
  7. The pickup builders are definitely starving and looking for something different to " eat" and not just another bologna sandwich with wheat instead of white bread. I like that a lot. Well said. Never give up! From a little spark a big fire can grow.
  8. I have seen His builds in magazines and they are some wonderful builds. I wish Him and family well.
  9. That is a very clean looking build you have there. The decals really set it off well.
  10. I had one follow me out of town on my way home from work tonight. Here in Ohio they are all white. I will have to get me one of these. Nice builds you got going on.
  11. I love those old four-eyed foxes myself. I just finished a 1984 Mpc kit. Looking forward to more of your build.
  12. I was told the reason for a front plate from the state patrol in Ohio is, that most accidents are from the front. There for in a case of hit and runs the plate will break off a lot of the time and be left at the scene . If you notice the front plates are mostly mounted on a plastic piece with only two mounting screws attached to the bumper or cover. When it comes to the loud bikes I would love to know why the get away with that myself? Every year they have a biker get together here and for two days that is all I hear day and night. If that were cars or trucks they would be writing tickets all day and night. Seat belts and helmets are like anything else. There is no guarantee they will save your life, but can not hurt to use them.
  13. Man you do like off the wall stuff. Looking forward to more of your builds and ideas.
  14. I like the color choice. Looks nice.
  15. What if they had brought out the 64 as a stock model with the option of a racing parts for the Thunderbolt in it? Now they have added some stock parts in the kit. The kit has not received good reviews because the stock version was not done well. How can the Model King afford to bring out truck models for example the 78-79 Ford pickup or the 78-79 Ford Bronco from old tooling and a Model company can not? How many of those is the Model King stuck with in his inventory? How does He know what models He brings out are worth risk?
  16. I am like your Dad if there's a grill in use. I am right there waiting. Nothing better than food off a grill.
  17. If Tamiya,s went together like a kit should as you say? Then other companies can also do just as good. Would you build another one? It would be all about how well the parts fit and where the seams would be. Most truck beds now are made of separate pieces. Most interiors are made with separate pieces on cars. Some truck models have a separate piece for the back of the cab. One has a separate top. All that would be left is two sides and top of the cab and cowl. How hard could it be to make those fit together right?
  18. Harry that is what a truck is mostly made of slab sides. You have hit on another idea. Like you say if they fit together well. It might just be cheaper.
  19. Looks to me it would make the race day a lot shorter. You would get more runs in a day. Might bring the cost down for the race track owners. You would get the same money for a shorter day of racing. I think it would be a little harder to watch your favorite driver.
  20. You did a nice job on that kit. I always liked that kit.
  21. While I am not into bikes much . Yours is really well done and has the right look.
  22. I have to see that one. I love flying boats and Mustangs.
  23. I learned how to get peoples dander up.
  24. Don't let it get to you to the point that you would leave here. Just do what He does. Put Him on your ignore list. Harry has the right idea. That is if the model companies will listen to Him. I really don't care what Mark or anyone else thinks of Me here. That is their problem not mine. Just because a company is in business does not mean they are that smart. Just look around at what has happened to most of the companies today with all their wisdom? Failing at every turn.
  25. I have to agree that is one nice black paint job. Looks like you could get in and take a spin.
