Being that I believe NASCAR chased away a large percetage of the original fans with the chase I think they are just about to jump the shark. They are on life support looking for new fans, to empty thier pockets.

Welcome aboard.

Some good ideas here to stop the product waste. Paint, glue or anything liquid. What is the bigger loss? The wasted glue / product? The ruined kit parts? The ruined dining room table and the harassment that follows.

It is what is in, just like every other era. Not like the 50s will every be back in paint schemes. Younger drivers don't care that much for the look at me paint on their car, they do that with tattoos on themselves.

So we now need a black market for glue on the hobby? This is getting like the 70s and the blue tube glue.

I think the sparmax is made for an airbrush.

The small orange pill bottles might work. The smallest they ever give out. As mentioned just cap with styrene. Maybe roll some thin plastic around a roll of penniess or dimes and glue the seem.

Marmon-Herrington is the name.

I may have butched the company name of the 4x4 conversion. .

That looks like a Marmon Harrington 4 wheel drive conveesion on thay truck. I dont know of anyone that made the wheels in resin in Recent years. Chuck Most would likely know if they were made. The tires I have seen from Scenes Unlimited in the past.

The Lions won a home play off game. Next week there will be another Home game. Yes it was -3 in Hell Michigan Yesterday. Go Figure.

Glad you are out of the Hospital and feeling better.

Looking out the kitchen window today. Single diget temps but the sun was out shining brite. 13 fox squirrels were retrieving acorns from the house next door. They can stay there but they won't. My tree is to old to produce many nuts anymore. There yard is loaded because they jave 2 large oak trees also.

Snow and ice

Headed in the right direction. Looks great.

Great project Jeff. The 63-65 buicks are hands down the best looking cars from GM.

Welcome aboard the forum.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome back. Yes it is easier to post photos. Don't think we need a host site fpr photos now. The upgrades are great.

Welcome aboard Tim. I live just over the boarder in Temperance MI. There is another Toledo builder on here every now and then.

Temperance MI just North of the southern border. Within an hour of Detroit and 40 minutes of Ann Arbor

If you tip the pen upside down , does the paint come off of the car to leave just a drawing?

Spent many a night after work helping a good friend work on cars. There were around 4 to 6 pf us that qere there mpst of the time. What ever he had to work on we helped. We also worked on our stuff. I had a 78 Cutlass that we put a 30 over 400 Chevy in to replace the 305 that GM put in it. That was a fun car. After the ringleader divorced his wife we started hanging out at the restoration shop he worked at. He left there and we started to hand out at the Metal mans shop before he passed from Cancer. A nice list of cars went through those places. No i didn't get to drive any of them. Lol Sure seemed like home no mater what shop we were standing in.

Went to the Alexis and Lewis store in Toledo on Sunday. They have the 57 Nomad, 57 Chevy red box art, 56 chevy black car on the box, 64 Mustang convertible, 69 Camaro, 82 Vette, 32 ford roadster Monogram, AMT 32 Ford hot wheels car release and plenty of the Mach5'S and 1/32 scale green hornet. Just a few days ago, they didn't have much left but today they were loaded again.

South end Toledo store has the 57 Vette, convertible Mustang and the Dan Gurney race car for the latest restock. Not sure what they had earlier this week.
