  3. 700 pictures ! Thanks for posting, it will take a couple days for me to go through all of them.
  4. No problem, I just wanted to correctly inform the public.
  5. The NNL Nationals has no theme next year, the build a Moebius Ford pickup is a Facebook group theme organized by myself, Pat Redmond & Tom Jackson.
  6. Tim, wonderful pictures, thanks so much for photographing & posting these.
  7. The original NNL was specifically a NON contest & it has continued for almost 40 years by sticking to that format. You want judges go to a contest you want a much more casual atmosphere go to a NNL event. While I am at it any show calling itself a NNL that has judging is NOT a NNL.
  8. To my knowledge just about every model car event in the country is a totally seperate independent event. Each organized and run by different unrelated groups. What happens to one has no affect on any other.

  11. Check MCW, he offers OEM colors and at least at one time offered spray cans. Not sure if he still does or not.
  12. Good luck, in the last 3 or 4 years we have received about two or three issues a year.
  13. First off every Michael’s I have been in has a very poor model section, forget them. Second, only 20 miles to a Hobbytown ? Consider yourself lucky. The three nearest full service hobby shops to me are 35, 39 and 53 miles away. Get used to it as that is the new reality, 20 years ago I had 6 shops within 10 miles of me. Didn’t realize how good I had it.
  14. The artwork for this one at least still exists.. I have one that is exactly like this out of a recent issue of the Model T.. Do not ask which one as I pulled it out & diplayed it on my shelf..
  15. Bob Shelton, PMB 140, 3116 W. Montgomery Rd. #C, Maineville, OH 45039 Bob has several different Cord bodies available,. they are designed to fit the Monogram kit.
  16. Good product and service, buy with confidence.
  17. Steve is a good guy to deal with, if you have any questions contact him. He has always answered mine in a timely fashion. His products are good quality, he also has an ever decreasing supply of R&R. Quality there can be spotty.
  18. Polyurethane is what resin model parts are made from.
  19. Good luck, I live in an urban/suburban county of 1.2 million people. There is exactly one hobby shop in this county & it is on life support. To my knowlage there are three other shops within 50 miles of my home. One of those looks like it will be closing soon. Between less & less people being involved in hobbies & internet sellers it is a VERY tough business to be in. 20 years ago I had six shops within 10 miles of me, didn't appreciate how good I had it.
  20. Star models offers some '55 Fords, check with him if he will sell you just what you want.
  21. There is a show in Ft. Wayne on January 28, the Indy show is in May not sure the date, the Toledo Toy show & the NNL Nationals are October 7
  22. No differnt Bob, as far as I know Chrome Tech is still up & running. Also I have used Chrome Tech to plate Plastic, resin & modified parts that also had some body filler, no problems.
