Get well soon buddy! And don't be trying to paint while you're there, you don't want the nurses to get all light headed (though I'm sure you could still whittle away with your xacto knife, since the surgeon is close by! )

Uh Harry, I believe he's actually talking about Unreliable Resin, so I think we're in the clear on this one.

So pretty... Ahem, bubble is supposedly the term used for rounded-body vehicles, such as the early 90's Impalas/Caprices and Crown Vics.

In my personal opinion, Donk and great don't go together in a sentence. Sure some may have decent suspension engineering, but most of the time they are crappy jobs, and all of the time the wheels look stupid.

Looks great so far, and I certainly prefer a painted front bumper to a chrome one, which is what I did on my F-350 Dually. However, the chrome grille does look good, especially with those wheels.

I just use a foam "brush" to apply it to the parts. Great thing is since there are no bristles, it provides a smooth coat as soon as it's applied.

Photobucket will resize every pic to the setting you have. However, I thought the site here already had a setting to resize the pic to a certain size, and you could click on it to see the full size image...course, I generally upload my pics at the 800x600 size anyways.

Today's episode was pretty good, they actually found a car that they got a good profit on.

I've been watching this for a while now, and it's not a bad show. I didn't really care for the pranking on Overhaulin, and the builds took too long on American Hot Rod. I prefer the fact that they aren't building a car for a "mark", and that they're somewhat more down to earth. Of course, the fact that they actually give some info about each car they're building, along with mentioning what the cars are that pull into the lot, certainly gives it some educational merit. Now, did anyone watch the Car Warriors show on SPEED last wednesday? That was an interesting show. If you haven't, two teams have 72 hours to build up identical cars, and the winning team keeps both cars. They don't have to worry about a budget either, which allows for better results IMO. Also, the teams are the "pros" versus the "average guys", so it gives a bit of twist.

Check out this thread I found. http://cs.scaleautomag.com/scacs/forums/t/63174.aspx

What's the scoop on the funky dually fenders?

None of the three you posted are, this is the one he mentioned: http://www.megahobby.com/zl1427chevyprostockdragengine1-25rossgibsonengines.aspx

In all seriousness though, I've never done that, nor will I ever. I don't plan on selling my builts anytime soon, nor do I really care the exact date I finished them. Good for you though that you actually do that.

I think your best bet would be the engine from the SVT Lightning. You would just have to switch sides for the intake.

I don't know...he is nice and he builds scale "softwere"!

Personally the only reason I'd want a chrome-less kit is because most of my builds have painted bumpers/grilles/what have you. However, I guess since most would want it, it's not a big deal to strip it off myself.

In a large room?

Bit pricey... http://www.modeltraincrossing.com/edmund_fitzgerald.htm Bit cheaper... http://www.steelnavy.com/iron.htm Edit: Cue excellent tribute video.

Should build something like this: Passenger space of a van combined with the 5th wheel hauling of a pickup.

I love them all really, they're my favorite "genre" of cars. However, if I were to pick my fave, it would be the '70 El Camino SS454 LS-6 with the Muncie 4-speed in yellow with black stripes!

5 Thumbs up dude, that thing is amazing!

Muahaha I found a way in Firefox to save the pics. When you have the image opened in a new window, click and hold the left mouse button on the pic and drag it off the window onto the main Firefox window (in the middle of the screen), and it will open in the open tab, allowing you to save it!

Looking pretty good so far. Are you going to try to get those tires to fit the wheels a bit better? I'm assuming those are the tires from the AMT F-150 kit.

You should get one, they are so simple to work on, and sound awesome with the right exhaust.

Haha yeah, mine is more of a street buggy, since we don't really have anywhere good to go off roading in Minnesota. It is fun to drive around up here in Michigan, but back home it mostly drives around town and to car shows!
