I know you'll like a particular builder profile featured in it...

I refuse to get a cell phone as well- I already have this really neat thing called 'electronic mail'!

I've heard of guys using Wilton's baking foil for underhood insulation as well. I just use packs from my empty Marlboro boxes. Yeah, I know, I know... but at least I'm getting some return out of my habit.

Yeah- sounds about right. Testors decal backer is about as good as 95% of their spray enamels. And I don't mean that in a positive way.

Screen settings, dude.

\ Awesome. Love it!

I moved out of Kansas, found myself in Oz... boom, here we are, color montior!

Check the color settings on your monitor before you make such a bold claim, Mr. Man!

Yep, more or less.

Gawd, I know, right! Oh, Ken, one other disadvantage to the Jo-Han- after you've gone through the motions just to nab one, you'll still need a better donor kit to use for pretty much everything but the body!

Actually tried out the El Camino camper on it earlier today- might work if I cut about 1/2" from where it fits against the tailgate. But I don't think I'll go that route this time.

The C-posts on the Revell body do look a little 'dainty' compared to the 1:1- looks to me like the rear edge of the quarter window opening follows the slope of the backlight a bit more than the 1:1. Seems like it would be fairly easy to graft in a 'dogleg' wedge to the back edge of the window opening to fix the c-pillar issue.

Now that I've seen the thing, I'd build it!

LOVE that Morgan!

Same here, and in a simliar color. Nice job on this one, it's gorgeous! I've still got a couple of these in my stash I hope will turn out as well.

I can look past the lack of plug wires- this model is gorgeous. I love overpowered, traditionally-styled A roadsters so I do admit some degree of bias, but still a fantastic job in my view.

Wonder if that Slovak monarch ever sent in a resume to Gregg...

Well, yeah!

And possibly open the hood and stuff a huffed Jeep V8 under there!

I don't know much about it, other than it's resin, and appears to be based off a promo chassis/body with a vacuum formed window unit and an interior cast from a hand-built master. I know Modelhaus casts a '50 Nash, but I'm not sure that's what this one is.

Just got this as part of a trade- looks to be based off a promo body and chassis, with a scratchbuilt-master interior and vacuum-formed glass. I know Modelhaus makes one, but I've never seen one. It is cast in a very light tan resin, and has thick, promo-style metal axles at both ends, and the chrome parts are all plated. I'd appreciate any help!

Well, didn't get a Rambler today, but I got something from the people who brought us the Rambler today...

The only times I wash a kit before assembly is when I am working with a resin kit. And I do this before ANY sanding or excessive handling of the parts.otherwise you'll grind the mold release right into the surface and NEVER have any shot at good paint adhesion. As far as plastic kits? I ususally don't bother washing them, unless the wet-sanding after a quick primer mist (to check for and correct any mold seams/sink marks/etc.). Old glue bombs and early kits covered in various GUNK of course get a thourough cleaning, but I never clean new kit parts.
