    Uncertain T

    Nice work!! How much and how do you get one??
  7. That came out GREAT....how was the show???
  8. If that kills the hobby......it was in ICU and not doing well..........so many options out there.....
  9. I forgot to say how nice that dash is!!!!
  10. Great work!! I told Ed Sexton that this kit would be used to build many different vehicles other than S&H. My spin..... Bill Elliott first Cup ride......
  11. Pretty sure that is a recast of the Chimmneyville 'deputy' figure.
  12. Yep....I made a run of Fast Eddie decals years ago....
  13. Vintage Pro Stock....whats not to like???
  14. I like the one photo without the wing better......
  15. Chimmneyville did the figures......but they call them by generic names to avoid issues.
  16. WOW.....I like it!!!! Is it going this weekend????? I understand there is a showrod cat.
  17. When I lived in Charlotte there was a plastic Dist that sold 'cut offs' by the pound. After a number of trips in there buying lots of plastic they started cutting me a deal at about 1/2 price which was really cheap. Lived off that supply for a long time. They shut down just before I moved away.
  18. Firefox was go to for years.....but not supported correctly any longer. Go Chrome
  19. Known him for only 55+ years!!!!
  20. Love this kind of work. If you ever wanted a flat stock hood I'd look at a NASCAR Buick hood.
  21. Off topic.....My buddy will be at the NHRA contest....he will have a number of models but Tyrone Malone drag truck and Papa truck will be easiest to spot....say ya for me!! I go but 6000 mile round trip is tough....
  22. With 40% off every non close out item 6 days a week......and the close out deals like recent kits under $10.....I'll still shop every chance I have.....and it's a 1.5 hour drive for me. I've missed deals before too....it happens.....I still kick myself daily for not buying a real NASCAR Daytona Charger from Tiger Tom Pistone back in 1977 (Dave Marcis car) for $4K because I thought it was too much......live and learn.
  23. Great color choices!! I like that kit so much I offered a repro of it years ago. It was laser cut from plastic sheet....you used a Lil Mixer for parts.
  24. Owned a 1/1 1972 Pinto.....great car compared to then girlfriends 73 Vega..... Vega's big car parts on a small car did not work as well as Pinto's R&P steering, dedicated brakes etc were better. I'll ignore the Pinto gas tank lore.....all 3 manufactures had a gas tank issue in the 70's. Era of change.
  25. Most times they do not change copyright dates.....Beer Wagon still says 1968 IIRC but issued many many times.
