  1. Both builds are awesome.
  2. I'm just amazed at your creativity here.
  3. That reminds me of my old GFs car from my hippie days.
  4. Really cool. I could never get those clips to attach when I was a kid.
  5. Nice. I'll bet that engine is a torque monster.
  6. Nicely done. Understated color, but you know it means business with the scoop and spoiler.
  7. I like your take on this iconic American car.
  8. Truly an awesome model of a great car. Thanks for the color choice too.
  9. I'll use both depending on the kit. I can always drop a bit of clear Elmers glue on them to give them the appearance of having a lens. The thing I hate is seeing a wash of white and grey on a chrome headlight. It looks like someone dirtied the lights.
  10. Grand Prix was awesome. Milwaukee had only one of those 70mm curved screen houses, The Southgate. Long gone as well as the shopping center it was in off the same name. My dad took me to it.
  11. Or Craigslist from Quincy to St Louis
  12. Laptop. Something she's wanted.
  13. I had a GT when I was in California. A yellow one I had painted black. The body was built by the French firm Lotz & Brossonneau, a builder of Locomotives, plus the Renault Floride.
  14. It really is, and doesn't make the bike look like something was added as an afterthought.
  15. Just so you know, the Top Gear referenced here is a magazine, not the TV show.
  16. Mine will disassemble themselves sometimes LOL
  17. the Jeepster kit had some spoof parts too. I remember the Plymouth Duster with those parts too.
  18. They are connected with Metabank, a federally licenced bank, so state usury laws do not apply.
  19. I, as well as you guys, get offers from different loan companies saying "borrow from us". I got a new one today and I usually just throw them away unopened. But this was from some company I had not heard of. Brookwood Loans said I was "prequalified" to receive one of there loans. They offered me the grand sum of $3,500. Oh lucky me. They said I could pay them off in 36 easy payments at 96%, You read that right, not 9.6%, a whole whopping 96%. So I got out my handy dandy dollar store solar powered calculating machine and woke up the beetle who inhabits the tiny treadmill inside. Payments for the sum are $298.71 per month, which totals out to be $10753.56!!! Are there people that stupid that will bite this juicy bait hanging in front of them. The local Mafia loan shark in town gives better deals than this.
  20. These cars are expensive to keep and expensive to repair....and yet she bought another Mercedes?
  21. I wouldn't mind either of those kits. The AMO seem quite accurate when compared to the pictures of the real ones. An engine would not be hard to scratch build.
  22. look closer. The wagon in your photo does not have the rear quarter slope down as the model's does. The glass remains level with the quarter on an even plain. The model has the quarter slope down some as it meets the end, with a bit of fill below the window. I think his model also has the rear pillar a bit wide...maybe about a millimeter and a half. Still a nice model though, despite the irregularities.
