  1. The 3 window with louvered decklid will be in my future for sure. Thanks for the preview Tim.
  2. Great looking tool and great tip, I have added it to the tools I need list.
  3. It is not what we think (wouldn't let us pick your girlfriend would ya?), it is what you like. That being said I think you did just fine and welcome to the fun.
  4. Did you use Faskolor paints on those?
  5. If you believe in what you type then you are right within yourself. Toe's get stepped on and people say stupid s@#t all the time. I think it is funny that 2 people can differ in opinions online to the point their dog will not come near them without piddling on the carpet, but could sit next to each other at the office and never have an issue. For me I am ok with the judges using whatever means necessary to judge a show as long as all parties are put under the same scrutiny. As far as the "other magazine/site" debate. The bigger is better statement is quite comical. I am active on both, I subscribe to both and enjoy both. I prefer this site because I feel it has a more mature atmosphere.
  6. Going with real as I believe that picture was in a History of Indy book or something close that my grandfather gave me for my birthday back in the 70's.
  7. That is a great looking Snap!
  8. Hence the problem / reason the industry struggles (as most seasonal hobbies do).
  9. I like the bump start bar
  10. Marc turned me on to the Pace Peace Keeper last year and it is phenomenal! I was going to get the model below it, but now I am glad I upsized for a little extra. To me for what I have invested in my hobby over the last 30 years it was time to do it right and save a ton of hassles in the process.
  11. Personally the mag is getting better every issue in my opinion. The "other" mag is the one deteriorating (not by any wrong doing, just the sign of the times). Keep up the good work, I will take mine tattered over nothing at all and I buy a second copy at the LHS because I have to have a crisp one for my collection.
  12. Nice simple clean build.
  13. Interior standard gloss or did you dull coat it?
  14. To me flock most replicates carpeting. Unless I have my groove on building a custom van, I would not flock a roof.
  15. Love the interior color. More details on the paints and products used would be great.
  16. All from the Bay (2) Monogram Chevy Luv's (1) AMT Rabbit (1) Monogram Waverider S-10
  17. Dig the rig! Nice paint and builds.
  18. Has been on the "to buy" list for a long time, but I always seem to find other things I want/need. Nesco looks like a nice choice and will make a nice addition to my "Best Purchase Of 2008" my Pace Peace Keeper spray booth.
  19. Ever noticed that the crew member always ran along side of the car duing the burnout BITD? Today we just let the driver do their thing and then go out back them up. Very nice build!
  20. That's more like it. Thanks Steve. I think I will buy a AMT Funny Car Wagon and just graft the roof to an old Larsen body I have that has bad pillars.
  21. Had forgotten all about them, but they scream ZZ Top Roadster......just sayin!
  22. Nice to see persistance pay off rather than end up back in the box for a couple years. Black cars with red guts always look nice. Stunning execution.
  23. Great Color! Just keep building.
