Round 2 car and truck kit product news at 2023 DAAM Show....
Rob Hall replied to tim boyd's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I would like both of those. But how about something really weird and obscure that would break the internet... like a '61 Valiant -

Rob Hall replied to rekcirb13's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I've been happy w/ what they have done in the last year or so w/ the Chevy II wagon, '66 Mustang 2+2. '65 and 68 GTO, '68 Coronet...all very appealing. GIve me a new '67 or '68 Cougar kit and I'd be very content... -
The people involved in that IMC effort died, I believe.

AMT 1960 3-in-1 Ford F-100 Pickup Truck

Cool...looking forward to this. I have a glue bomb rough '60 annual that I picked up 20 years ago, emblems sanded off, etc. -
Found out this morning that the house I put an offer on sold to another buyer. I didn't want to get in a bidding war. I drove around toured 4 properties yesterday that fit the criteria of what I'm looking for in my next house, 3 of the 4 had issues, one fit the criteria the closest and I put a reasonable offer on it. Oh well...got a few more lined up to look at next weekend. It's nice and sunny today, working off and on my yard...starting spring cleanup.

A new . . . . Hornet?!
Rob Hall replied to peteski's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Same platform as the Jeep Compass and Alfa Romeo Tonale. Basically the Tonale body w/ different front and rear. Could sell well other compact CUVs, seems to be a popular niche. -

Re: the exhaust tips--they are visible in this photo. Molded into the stock rear pan, and the instructions say to paint them chrome for the stock version.- 216 replies

Got another of the Coronet R/Ts and an original issue of the ‘68 Road Runner. Plan to put the Hemi and maybe chassis from the RR in the Coronet. I need the body and other parts of the RR to repair an original one I built 30+ years ago that got damaged in storage over the years.

Apparently old electronic devices don't age well
Rob Hall replied to Brian Austin's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
A high capacity CD changer is something I’ve never added to my home theater, but probably should. I have a late 90s Sony ES 5 disc player that still works great. I still buy CDs after 35 years, I do like to have physical media at home and in the car, alas, it’s getting harder to find new cars w/ CD players. I usually rip CDs to mp3s for my phone or on a thumb drive for the car. With movies and tv I bought DVDs and Blu Ray discs for years, mostly stream content now, but have a couple Sony blu ray players at home. -
Apparently old electronic devices don't age well
Rob Hall replied to Brian Austin's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I've been to the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Ca and to it in Boston when it was there in the mid 90s. Really neat places. I did learn to use flow chart templates in my early computer classes in the late 80s, learned about punch cards, but have never had to use them...I did use green screen terminals to access VAX computers in a couple college classes. Programming is hard enough, I can imagine it was a lot harder in the punch card and mainframe era...had to be very precise w/ commands, not easy to debug compared to testing and debugging code in an IDE on my laptop w/ local databases, etc.. -
Apparently old electronic devices don't age well
Rob Hall replied to Brian Austin's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I do have some older tech at home—various pieces of stereo equipment—but some older technology doesn’t just doesn’t work well with modern technologies—a VHS tape looks really bad playing on a modern large HDTV for example. I couldn’t imagine using my laptops from the 90s or 00s today—too slow, too limited in storage, incompatible with current software, etc...or my cellphones from 10-25 years ago. I used a typewriter in high school in the 80s, but once I started using computers with word processing software, there was no point in going back to a typewriter. Once digital cameras came about, I was done with film. As someone that works in tech, I’m always about moving forward and building on past knowledge with new and emerging technology to build stuff for the future.. so many products (hardware and software) become obsolete pretty quickly... -

Reality is complex. -
A couple more new reissues. Nice to see the Chevy truck back, now molded in white with a new tool of the ‘81-82 grille w/ separate headlight lenses.

Productivity can be difficult to measure, it depends a lot on the reality context in which resource units perform work tasks.

UP-TOP for 1968 Coronet Convertible
Rob Hall replied to 1972coronet's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Looks like the difference is in the bottom edge of the top where it hits the tulip panel. I've heard that the shape of the tulip panel front edge in inaccurate on both the MPC Coronet and AMT '69 GTX. It follows the wavy line of the ht window opening, but the 1:1 is different? Never studied a '68-70 B-body convertible up close.. -
