Pretty quick, within a week. USPS. I preorder and order from them all the time… -
A bunch of new Round 2 releases and one oldie (MPC Monza) came in the mail today… Also got some neat ‘70 Chevelle and ‘72 GTO parts from Canuck 3D.

What did you see on the road today?
Rob Hall replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Took a scenic drive out east of my area to the rolling hills of Geauga County and Lake County, Ohio and saw a sharp apple green ‘69 Chevelle and a bright blue ‘65 Chevelle 2dr sedan. Stopped at a couple overlooks on Lake Erie, the water still blustery from all the storms this week… -

Tamiya 1/24 Nissan 240Z (street custom?)
Rob Hall replied to Bennyg's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Looks like it does. -
Sharp car..I always liked the CTS coupe... my '19 CT6 I bought last month is similarly loaded with goodies.. 360 degree cameras, adaptive cruise control, sensors all around, self-parking (haven't tried that), panoramic sunroof, automatic headlights, wipers, and HVAC...AWD w/ a 3.6 V6, 10 spd auto and 44k miles. New enough to have Apple Car Play, wireless phone charging, etc. Taking it on a weeklong road trip later this month down to the NC and SC coasts and back..

Those look similar to wheels in some releases of the AMT '66 Mustang ht (70s-80s releases--Countdown Series and Barris)--not sure if the more recent issues have them...those were chromed, would need painted to look that way of course. The Tamiya Jeep Wrangler hardtop kit has something similar but of a much flatter design.

Got this restorable ‘58 Bonneville off eBay. Seems complete except for wheel covers. And the steering wheel is broken.

Got totality here outside Cleveland. Took a few pics, more interesting were the shadows and light on the yard. Got dark enough for my outside lights to come on.

Night bulb will soon be blocking day bulb...been listening to music sort of related to that theme today--Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' album, Audioslave's 'Shadow on the Sun', U2's 'Staring at the Sun' and the Beatles 'Here Comes the Sun'.... a little cloudy but should still be good here in NE Ohio..taking the afternoon off, got my shades..

Ohio is pretty gloomy and gray in the winter also, though though February this year was sunnier than normal. It took some effort to adjust to it again when I moved back in 2017 after 20 years living in very sunny places (Colorado and Arizona).

Beautiful sunny day today, took scenic drives in my Jeep, Mustang and Cadillac.. found a really good Vietnamese restaurant nearby for lunch. Spent a lot of time in the sun in the backyard w/ the dogs. worked a bit in the garage tidying up and working to make room for two cars (still have a lot of boxes from moving last year). Then spent a while this afternoon in the hot tub..sky is beautiful today. May watch the eclipse from the hot tub, supposed to have totality here around 3:15 est tomorrow.

Who all knows of the Chicago Cutlass?
Rob Hall replied to Sledsel's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I've seen the famed Cutlass in Chicago traffic probably 25 years ago... -
What did you see on the road today?
Rob Hall replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Beautiful Spring day, took my Mustang for a spin. Saw 3 clean ‘80s-90s Corvettes out for Sunday drives also. Took advantage of the weather to take pics of my vehicles in my driveway. Later took the Caddy out for lunch and drove the beautiful Chagrin River Road Saw several more nice Corvettes and Porsches of various vintages (incl. an '80s 911 wide body w/ whale tail in a bright green), and a gorgeous black Caddy XLR-V rolling top down. -
Why was the Supernatural 67 Impala 4 door kit discontued?
Rob Hall replied to GMP440's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Reissuing it as a regular ‘67 Impala 4dr ht would need just some wheel covers and a correct bench seat, with some existing redline tires. Not sure how well that would sell, pretty niche. I’ve got the parts to do one like that, and a phantom 4dr SS parts w/ parts from a coupe kit. -
I remember the Browns moving to Baltimore to become the Ravens in the 90s and the current Browns starting up a few years later.

Why was the Supernatural 67 Impala 4 door kit discontued?
Rob Hall replied to GMP440's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
The roofline shape is different on a 4dr sedan...fixed B-pillar, more vertical C-pillar, slightly higher roof, different rear window shape, side window door frames...to do a sedan would require a new body tooling. I am surprised we haven't seen a resin or 3d printed '67 Biscayne/Bel Air/Impala 4dr sedan conversion, would be popular w/ the police car builders. -
I remember staying there for a weekend around 20 years ago when I saw The Rolling Stones at the MGM Grand. Was a neat old hotel.

I think I drove over that bridge in 1997 when I was in Baltimore for a conference.... I remember also taking a dinner cruise as part of the conference and going out in the harbor and under bridges. Only time I've ever been to Baltimore.

Goodbye Hot Rod Magazine?
Rob Hall replied to Rockford's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I get only two magazines in print--- Model Cars Magazine and Collectible Automobile. I still read Car and Driver, Road & Track, Motor Trend and Top Gear in digital form through a Kindle Unlimited subscription on the Amazon Kindle App on my iPad or iPhone.
