  1. For a scale model, the differences might be indistinguishable. To me, the big caveat is getting a fine pearl metallic and not a 1:1 metallic.
  2. It's possible that the difference in paint codes between what I found and the examples above could be the difference between GM/Cadillac and PPG codes.
  3. My 1:12 Bentley looks the same today as when I built it in 1973.
  4. According to the very handy paint code reference recently posted here by 69NovaYenko, this is also known as GM's WA 3510, or 3510 with different letter prefixes.
  5. My iPad doesn't work that way. But suddenly, I'm not having a problem. Go figure.
  6. I can't quote a post from my iPad without getting a long string of prior quotes in the reply box. No problem with a new reply box or my desktop iMac, just with quotes.
  7. Easy one. Elizabeth Taylor.
  8. With a lifetime parts and service warranty, it would be my old 1959 Alfa Giulietta Super Spider Veloce. Otherwise, nothing without such a warranty.
  9. Let me know if you have clear images of how the brake cables attach to the rear drums. I've got the front brakes covered.
  10. I know you have all the reference you need, but I thought you'd be interested in today's e-mail from ultimatecarpage.com http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/chassis/2859/Bugatti-Type-35-4450.html
  11. Awesome. I'm a big Isaak fan.
  12. I had a huge arsenal of Nichols cap guns including that one. Some of them would be banned for sale today because of their realism.
  13. Ferrari has always been quick to swoop down on replica makers with lawsuits, and it doesn't matter if they use Ferrari badging or not. It'll be interesting to see if they go after him.
  14. My experience is that browsers keep fixing what ain't broke and perform differently over time. They're continually upgrading for the latest operating systems and dropping support for not-so-old ones (especially for Mac). So you have to keep trying alternate browsers.
  15. Note the above comment by 70mach1: Wood that won't float.
  16. Her entire life is there to see on Google. She started acting at 4 and was the child star of "Miracle on 34th Street" at 8.
  17. No schnozz bob. The picture I chose evidently used a wide-angle lens. She was gorgeous from day 1.
  18. About 25 years later. I know this was hard, but I didn't think it was that much of a stumper. Does this help?,,,,
  19. I guess most of them go through an ugly duckling phase.
  20. This is the most uncharacteristic and unflattering picture I could find of one of the most beautiful women in movie history.
  21. Good one. Kay Kyser + Francis the Talking Mule + Cocoanuts = Kay Francis
  22. Lesley Ann Warren
  23. My daughter used lots of Gundam paints and fine-point pens for her Gundam Wing model kits (a sort of Transformer-type series of fantasy robot space ships from manga-style anime TV shows and movies). The pens are terrific for detailing panel lines, etc.
