  1. As much as I hear people wanting anything AMC, I would think the AMX would be a good on. The Cuda and Maverick would sell too. But of course these appeal to us older guys and not so much to the young'ns. I think there are quite a bit of S/C Ramblers out there. They seem to go rather inexpensively when I see them.
  2. On the Johan Resurrected board, someone spoke with Okey yesterday and he says it's the first time he's heard about this. Apparently, someone started a rumor and it took off. I have to agree with George 53, don't sell goofy resin cast parts that can't be fixed or used. If you want to sell the bodies, fine, those are pretty good.
  3. Fix the bike, dump the GF, You'll be happier.
  4. I just wanted to post a news item. I'm sorry i started a rant of Okey. I go home now, K Bye.
  5. Just found out on another forum that the bank has foreclosed on the remaining assets of Johan from Mr. Okey. I do not know of the veracity of this, but I will monitor it and keep you abreast of the details. If those with other model firms can research this and maybe obtain what's left...it might be a good thing.
  6. This was common with the old school department stores, Macy's, Hudson's, Boston Store, Gimbel's and Schuster's.
  7. We are Borg, You will be assimilated. your thoughts, your conciousness, will be added to our own. Resistance is futile, You will comply
  8. You got a cool dad.
  9. I will always look at that beautiful picture on that Revell kit of that 1957 Nomad on the beach with those cropped in black and white chrome reverse rims off of Bob's own Rambler with fond memories. Art, you write eloquently of an awesome personality.
  10. Pinto Pangra, a limited production car sold by Huntington Ford.
  11. My condolences. Never met him in person but had emailed back and forth about model car stuff. Truly a wonderful man. The hobby world lost a visionary, icon, and goodwill ambassador for the hobby of model cars.
  12. Are you really sure about that, Olle. I have Bibles from the 60s that have the imprinted words "Corinthian Leather" on the bottom of the cover. It's very thin, but leather none the less. I have seen those posts on the web about the Chrysler marketing reference. They have no basis in fact.
  13. You've been off the mainland for so long you forgot baseball terminology...it's called extra innings! Double overtime, what a riot
  14. Ericmaxman, I can tell you are one of the good kids, smart, has skills, many interests....I do not know much about Malaysia, but you seem to have a good hold on what you want to do in your life. The computer aspect tells me that you have mechanical and mathematical skills. This will serve you well in the future. I've seen the models you posted and I like the look of them, very well done. I like the flat black sedan you did, kind of like an Asian version of the Robocop car, that shows imagination and the ability to carry it out, plus you are not afraid of trying out of the ordinary colors. About your Mom, i can't help you on that one (my dad was the same way), but maybe it could be a medical issue that needs to be addressed by her doctor. My elderly Mother has mood swings, too. But if she takes her medicines, she's OK.

  16. Who's going to make my marinara sauce now?

  18. Eshaver, I think that Mopar didn't like you. Think maybe it was Christines grand daughter? You tell 'em Spike, we love our ice driving. Separates the men and wimmin from the wussies.
  19. I was expecting to see something totally different when I opened the thread
  20. Much on the line of multi-colored layering would be license plates with raised letters like our state has. 32 Ford grille with raised ribbing. Rocker panel trim. Wheel covers.
  21. Well, every Ford I have ever owned was a very good car. Please note that my Fords were all under $1000.00, yet they all gave great service when I owned them...well, except the intake manifold I had to replace on a 1983 Mercury Marquis wagon I had with the 3.8 litre V6....but that was indeed a ###### engine. The only other old cars that were as good were some Buicks I had and AMCs. The Mopars and Chevys...er...not so much. In fairness to Chevy, I've had my new one over a year now and it has had NO trouble.
  22. Very nice work using the markers. I have not mastered those yet as I like colored pencil. You do very nice conceptual work which you have followed through into your scale projects. ever consider offering work to race car designers and body shops and streetrod builders?
  23. Very nice rear view. Did you do that from memory? I see you ran out of paper on the rear part, that happens to me too
