  1. High CFM will pull dust into the booth. It could even pull it in from another room.
  2. Nice work.
  3. Sorry for your loss.
  4. I hope and pray he gets the record for his dad.
  5. Looks great.
  6. Harry the only reason I brought this up was because of the line that said they wanted to make changes and Ford said no. I had a little idea who did what to what on these cars back in the day, but when I read this thread it started to make me wonder.
  7. From Harrys post earlier . From allpar.com: Dodge manufactured every part of the Ford car except for the buckboard wooden seats and the rubber tires. The Dodge Brothers knew all of the Model T’s weaknesses, so they set out to build their own car to compete with it. Dodge suggested several improvements to the Model T along the way, but Ford refused. The Dodge car, which they’d build in their own factory, would include all of these improvements. They would also use their profit from their dealings with Ford as well as dividends of the Ford stock they still owned to bankroll the new company It says that Dodge would provide the Drivetrain but not who did the Design /Engineering work . I wonder if it was Fords or that of Dodge brothers that came up with it. Makes you wonder who did what when ti came to the cars Design.
  8. These new snap kits are a great idea to get the younger kids involved. Nice and easy.
  9. If they measured someones car why do they not have pictures of an engine.
  10. A PM is the best way to address a major problem for a new builders or a new member here. If you are on here for a few months you will see who is helpful and willing to point out things that will makes your model look and show better.

  15. Art that is a long time for a run, must be the all time sales king with that long of a production run.
  16. In one of the magazines back several years said the General Lee Charger was the best selling kit up to that point. This I do believe was in the mid 90'S when I read it.
  17. 110 minute action sequence will get boring in about 20 minutes.
