Love the bumper sticker "Yeah, It's got a Hemi", made me laugh and say "I need one of those"

"Success Story NO. 1: A New Age of Performance For Those Firebirds, Just When You Thought The Age of Exciting Sporty Performance Where Over.........POW, Firebird goes Turbo" (1980 Pontiac Brochure, Turbo Firebird layout) Made a dipstick, Made A fuel line with a Fuel Filter, and wired it up.

Wouldn't of ever thought of doing that with those old mirrors, I'll have to post the truck I'm using the mirrors you sent me on.

April got my vote and I WANT IT!

Rush would Imply I'm doing anything

Matt just a heads up despite the fact I haven't done anything in quite a while, I'm still in this. Nick

Thanks Tony.

Thank you Chuck.

Part of being in a club is helping each other learn new stuff anyway! I'm gonna show this to the person this weekend hopefully.

Thanks. and what a beautiful dio, I like your corn field one the best I think. I cleaned out the shop and founds thing I didn't even know I had, plywood, plexiglass, chipboard, cardboard, shingles, maybe I should clean out more

Thanks Don't mind if I do Jim, made $50 from it yesterday.

Don't know I'd have to ask. Can't Imagine why not.

I will send your decals tommorow.

Ok thanks.

Hey welcome to MCM Nick Winter Whitby, Ontario

Well after the way the weather has been lately in south western Ontario, and hearing a story my dad told me, and thinking more about a Dio I've been thinking about for years now anyway. Dio #1- I'd like to do a stretch of highway in 1/32 scale and have a big rig with trailer on it buried in snow, I'm pretty good at, making pavement, I've got this decreative sand stuff that when glued down looks like old asphalt and then I have some Black Night Airport Grade Driveway Sealer I brush over top of the sand. But How should I do the snow? Dio #2- Swamp Dio with a peiece of highway and soft shoulder, with a wrecked truck in it. This comes from the story my dad told me of him and his band around 1968 or so. He and his band were driving up north to play a gig that weekend so they borrowed my grandfathers '64 Chevy C10 stepside to put the equipment in, well 3 guys loaded into the pickup, my dad, his friend, and his base player, the base player drove the truck, and following a few minutes behind them was a car with the manager and the rest of the guys, well they got on old number 7, which led to new number 7, well old number 7 has soft shoulders, swamp and marsh on both sides, they pretty well cut the highway through swamp. well the guys in the pickup got around a big bend and lost the guys in the car, the truck got to far off to the shoulder and went down in the shoulder the driver went to correct the truck and the truck hit the pavement and went airborne on a angle, the truck rolled 4 times into the swamp, and my dad who was sitting in the middle of the bench, grabbed the other two guys and pulled them down below the dash, when it came to a rest the truck was wheels down luckily, because the roof was flat to the doors in the back half of it, my dad checked on the other guys and kicked the windsheild out and they crawled out onto the hood, the band's equipment was all over the place and in water of course, the truck wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that great. They all went to my great uncles and called my grandparents and told my grandfather about his truck, my grandfather didn't give a ###### about the truck he wanted to know that the guys were okay. He and my Grandmother drove up that night, and the guys took photo's of the truck and it was taken to the local garage. That night a drunk came out of the local bar and went to drive home, he stopped at the garage to use there facilities, his car rolled into my grandfathers truck and the truck went off a cliff and was totalled. the insurance guys came up the day after it went over the cliff and took pictures and such then came back down to my grandparents home, and had a meeting, they told my grandfather that his truck was totalled, my grandfather and the guys from the band kept insisting that it was not, the insurance guy showed his pictures, and my grandfather said "That's not my truck, my truck only needed a new fender and a roof" so they showed there pictures, the insurance guys went back up and thats when the story came out. I'd like to replicate the truck sitting in the swamp. I'm not sure how to make the swamp. Dio #3- Garage Dio, I'd like to do a 2 car garage dio with tools and such, but I'm not sure how to make the walls and from what. Nick

This may seem very basic but I just put a bit of tape on my bench and stick my paints and such down.

Justin, If you have coated the whole sheet, no, if you have only coated the area where the decals you printed are then yes. Nick

Like I said I'm not the one who's gonna run it, I'm just gonna collect some intrest and show it to the guy who's thinkking of starting the club. Nick

The 8 3/4's don't need a whole bunch of work, just a little clean up.

No Problem just glad I could help.

Yep that's the one Eric does '53 ford ext. cab

Other than the one Matt said, the only one I can think of is done by PPG resins, Eric goes by Porky here.

I'm not sure of the caster, but Me and Steve have put ourselfs in better terms now, when I go get the car, I'll ask who casted it. Nick
