THE BEST item I have gotten at HF is two folding chairs I use at car shows. They are NOT those butterfly type that just spread out....more like a director chair with a side table!!! Comfortable, stable and the table is handy. I paid $20 with a coupon. Well worth it. As far as tools I have almost 100% Craftsman but I am not as loyal as I once was. I do have a 6 foot long low roll around tool box that has worked very well. Just know what you are buying.

INFO WANTED; NHRA museum model contest November 3rd, 2019
Dave Van replied to the goon's topic in Contests and Shows
My So Cal buddy is going....so still on. Maybe check the museum site??? BTW I grew up in Whittier.....Mulberry elementary......I still visit once a year. -
Bugeye!!!! What region and years did you run??? We ran SE region late 70's up into late 90's. From SSC to GT-1. Indycals does custom printing and his decals are very nice. What decals do you need?? just the stripe and roundels/numbers?? I may be able to help with art.....but can't print white....so Indycals would need to print them. LMK photo at Roebling Road??

I used some years ago and it was not up to Tamiiya standards.......gun shy here too.

Very cool!!! -

Well.......I just ordered a Taxi kit. $45 delivered. How I will build it yet to be seen!!!! This is a Revell Renault based stake bed....Hmmmm.....
-
Side note: Indycals just released a MOMO set of decals for this kit. Very nice!
-
Something else.......the Revell Renault showrods are really 1/32 scale....body wise. If you have a Pyro 1/32 Renault kit the 'hood' in it is almost the EXACT same size as the Revell. So I'm not sure how big the ICM 1/24 kit will be.
-
The Revell Moon Mixer uses the Revell 1/96 scale Apollo kit for the mixer.....not real hard to find.
-
IIRC you are correct. I worked on the Model King 64 Ford and seemed to recall there were two tools and the modified is still intact....MK reissued both......if my mind is working right.
-
First......Thanks Bruce for posting this....I wanted one but good to see inside. Tires can be painted with Tamiya spray flats. I use white primer to make wide whites. I'd test it...but gray primer might work well. PS.....anyone think about a hot rod version like Revell Meter Cheater???

Monogram 1/24th scale 1930 Model A Coupe
Dave Van replied to Greg Myers's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Things can be done with it......... Inspired by a goth girl's ride. Funny Monogram didn't do anything with it....I like the kit. -
