  1. Great start , well planed for the defense or the attack mode.
  2. Do you think that NASCAR is losing money ? I think the track owners are the people losing the money. Bill Francs would be happy with the bottom line.
  3. What if you started with the end shapes you want , then take a two liter bottle center and glue it to the ends . If you split the bottle you can get the shape and length of the tank you need.
  4. Another 63 /64 Buick Riv glue bomb and a 65 Riv parts car this week.
  5. Great start, we all make mistakes so do not let it get you down. You will get better as you go . Don,t worry about the paint for the first few kits.
  6. This takes me back. My Late brother beat the snot out of a red 73 Grabber rust bucket for several years. 302 ,3 speed ,( we installed headers) , it had the taller rear spoiler on the trunk lid and it had the cool hood with the fake scoops. If I could find a clean one I would try and buy it . Great looking cars.
  7. We are getting rain now after 2 to 3 inches of snow. What a mess outside. Just North of Toledo Oh .
  8. Does the badge help with the showgirl type ?
  9. The Monroe MI had nothing on sale Thursday night.
  10. Not only does this thing have a large amount of torque but the teeth in this machine are very tough. My guess is electric ran by a Diesel generator . I am wrong . The VB 950 has a single Caterpillar C18 diesel engine pushing out 710PS (700hp) and…440,000Nm (324,483 lb-ft) of peak torque, and if that doesn't impress you, how about the VB 1500 that has two C18 diesel mills delivering 1,500PS (1.479hp) and - wait for it- 1 million Nm or 737,463 lb-ft!
  11. Great start.
  12. So true Nick. My Mom passed last October , just two months short of 56 years for Mom and Dad.
  13. While reading this post they were having a Funeral for two fire fighters in Toledo. It was a sad weekend for T-Town. Than when I read this after work it got a bit worse. Building-owner-charged-firefighters-murder, It turned out to be arson, this guy started an Apartment Building on fire with people living inside.
  14. Aaron and David if you can find a Model Engineering Show by your house it is a must visit. Sherline are always at the Michigan show. The old timers will help you out with anything you need for advise.
  15. Great start.
  16. Now way a hand built model could be boring. This will be a fun watch.
  17. They all look good to me. A protouring Barracuda would be killer.
  18. Wayne my condolences to the Sloan Family also.
  19. An early 60's Chevy should have a wood floor in the bed. 67 was the first year of the optional metal floor.
  20. Welcome Cory . Just look in the forum in the contest and show section. That should help some . There are some shows in the Detroit Area also. April 6th is the next one.
  21. This is good question to ask the Paint store. I would think that a guitar body would be dry before it was made. What Craig says also.
  22. Wow, that is a very nice car. Well done.
