  1. Sad news for his family. He had a great run to 94. His knowledge with race engines was incredible.
  2. The wallmart in Holland ( Toledo Suburb) Ohio has them but the 2 in Toledo do not. None in Monroe MI or Adrain.
  3. Yes When the molds were shipped to the last 2 countries to run production, we seen a jump.in prices both times.
  4. If these tariffs are so bad why do companies have to pay them to ship into other countries. No more needs to be said.
  5. If you are good with a dremel tool and a burr or sanding drum you can make fast work of the high spots. If you are not good, you will be filling more than you wanted or worse. Micro mart have a few chisels and other tools for doing what you are looking for.
  6. I agree with the others and say strip it. Give it a good wash after that with Dawn and Comet and see what you have. This is a Commen kit so if it is a little more than you want to fix as also mentioned above you could get another. It would make a good beat up dirt track race car as another option.
  7. Not many epoxy type products last more than a year. Hey all have an expiration date early on the package. Keeping 2 part bondo in a colder place than normal will extend the life of the tube. I was told this by an employee of bondo brand. He did not say yes I could put it in the fridge when asked, verbally.
  8. The B pillar change helps the look. I hate to say it but the white walls with caps also have my vote. Maybe a set of babymoons would look good also.
  9. I believe you can purchase just the wheels from pegasus hobbies. The owners of moebius. Maybe that is just the ramp truck wheels and tires.
  10. Very cool model you have built. We seen a lot of these body style Camaros headed to Toledo speedway when I worked at a Sohio gas station back in the day.
  11. If you have a Hearse you dont need a camper. Plenty of room for 2 in the back. Rode in a 66 caddy hearse/ambulance from 1st exit in MI Datona beach 2 years in a row. Spring Break trip. We better use the 59 that was just turned into a beach cruiser as they are cheaper.
  12. I use boards from Sally's. I also use double sided tape with the grit and shape I want/need.
  13. Your model is looking great. Forgot to say that in the above post.
  14. In 1982 the Super Ford show was in Dearborn MI. There was a couple of Thunderbolts there. I was drooling while checking them out.
  15. Could you put the tint on the inside of the window? So dusting later will be safer? Just asking after a thought.
  16. My dad started answering "I'm broke" as a joke because he had 11 kids. He said you cant believe how many people hang up. Before and after the cell phone. A good friends mom had a guy swindle her out of money. He told her he was going to come to town to Marry her. Lead her on like they had something going on. There's was nothing the kids could do because she sent the money on her own free will and she was in her right mind just elderly was not good enough.
  17. Is that engine offered 3d printed by anyone over there? Shipping the plastic over seas is getting stupid.
  18. Had time to run to the Toledo store on Alexis and Lewis. They had all the goodies today. Camaro snap, porsha tractor, 1/32 tanker trailer, 32 Fords, Jaguar, Raptor snap, 1/24th Thunder Bird and Doms GTX..
  19. Very cool. You may need to get some different rims or are these not the odd size rims?
  20. Very good idea
  21. The 2 store's in Toledo had nothing new for cars or ships..
  22. Monroe MI has a couple of the Jags, 4 or 5 of the Green Camero's, a lot of Dom's 71 GTX and a lot of the Snap Ford Raptor's. I purchased the 32 Fords they had left.
