Here is a pic of the side of the joker get away car. I have an extra light bar. If this works for you. There is only one red lens and there are 2 blue.

That is the side of my refrigerator. I just put the stickers in the magnet and cut around them. This way you can do the same with cards or what ever you want to display on Your tool box. Change them out when you get tired of them. Before anyone asks that is the name of a real campground in the picture.

Tracy when you get some stickers for you tool box try putting them on thin magnets so you can change them out. I get the magnet sheets at Michaels or hobby lobby the last time. They are in big sheets with sticky on them already.

Anyone got a Mattel Power Shop?
1930fordpickup replied to OldNYJim's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I would think the jig saw blades , sorry scroll saw blades are or were standard sizes back in the day. When I looked at the yellow base i clicked in my empty noggin. I have seen one of these bases in a garage somewhere. There were 4 of us that had no idea what it was. This looks like mattels last effort to sell someone under 18 a toy. -
To bad those are not in 1/25 scale They would be nice for a van or cab over delivery truck.

Didn't Tamiya make a YJ

The Jeep she drove is a CJ7. The only CJ7 that I know of is the Monagram 1/24 jeep. The other Jeep released before was also the same CJ5 Jeep tooling . They both build up to a nice Jeep. Carl the easiest way to tell visually is the doors. .
-
Yes, that Jeep is also wrong.

What Scared the Heck Outta You Today

Prayers for your brother, Mike. As we get older it is mentally tougher on us all. -
As Long as you are not trying to build a step side style truck it should mot be too bad. Sure it will not be easy and you may not know until you have built the interior and install it in the cab. You would have to build long wheel base trucks though. A curb side model is what you are making then. What you while a trucknis sitting on the curb. No engine or chassis detail is required but be done if you want. Many people just use a flat piece of plastic and fifure out a way to attach the wheels. A styling study like the clay models the auto companies made back in the day.

Prayers to the Family's of American air line mid air crash
1930fordpickup replied to ranma's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Truly sad news. Prayers for all family's involved. -
5 minute epoxy does have a shelf life before it is mixed and cured. Once it is cured and on a shelf they should be fine. For parts to be falling apart now it may be your prep work, unless the epoxy was old. When the epoxy starts to get stiff just pushing it out of the tube, it is getting old. .

Another Example of Ineptitude by the USPS
1930fordpickup replied to StevenGuthmiller's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
95% of the current problems with the post office are all Management caused ideas and decisions. They already have the golden retirement plan and that is the problem. Going any deeper with that will get me banned for breaking the rules. LOL
