  1. 40 -50 mph wind and 25 degrees with 8 degrees tonight. Time to put my 3 away. I do try and take out the 46 on really nice days all Winter...
  2. My wife saw a 8 point gray mule buck.......but not in time to miss it. $4500 and we will get it back fixed.....I hate deer.
  3. NICE work so far!!!! Unfortunately there have been MANY posts on modifying the Salvinos MC body. You are the first I have seen that added to the bottom of the body........I too saw an issue in the area but never thought of your fix!!!Your chassis choice also got rid of that giant trans hump. Don't get me wrong....I am glad we are getting kits like these......but what could have been!!
  4. Thanks Tim for keeping us up to date. Did Ed have a ETA for the Baja Bandito VW kit? thx
  5. On my desk.... Testors tube glue Flex-I-file liquid solvent Gorilla glue (light blue cap) 5 minute epoxy Elmer's clear glue Future floor shine (Pledge floor shine now) I use most of these on each build...each where it works best.
  6. Just noticed how much alike the Europa chassis is to the Esprit......in looks anyway ......do the cars share parts in 1/1/ world??
  7. Never owned one.......was to be reissued but something derailed it.
  8. I have every Duplicolor primer and sealer on hand at all times. Yes...
  9. I built their Daytona kit......not bad but you made it better around the doors for sure. IIRC it was a little bit of a bear in final assembly so good luck.
  10. This week???? Yes Magnification.........changes often....
  11. When not using it is best in the fridge in a ziplock bag.
  12. Very well done. I got two of the kits., FYI they sold out the first run and will make more....for a kit they had 2nd thoughts about.
  13. Neat idea....never checked....but this boat is HUGE!
  14. The van is for servicing the Coke machine not carrying it upright......that's my spin anyway! ?
  15. Okey was set up at the Dayton show last week. He is down to a very small handful of parts and didn't have any kits or major components. Seems he is about out of JO-HAN stuff.
  16. Very nice work!!! Hope mine looks near that
  17. Tractor Supply carries it in a spray can. Test it on sprue first...I have not used it yet.
  18. Atlantis is not showing a list of what he bought....don't blame him!! But I asked him about a different kit and he admitted to having it and would look into it's condition. SO......
  19. The 59 Imperial had a cloned chrome tree. Model King right now is vested in the Moebius product line. R2 and Revell have stopped their private issue kits and not sure to what degree Atlantis is open to this type venture. Contact Pete if you have the cash!!!
  20. Vac would still cost more...bur could work. The tires were made to only fit the 62 Chrysler kits.....none on hand would fit. New wheels or tires were needed.
