  1. One of the photo etch companies used to make SS rings. Each set came with a number of different sizes. Find those and apply to drilled hole.
  2. Two thumbs up!
  3. Best lookin of the Skoal cars!
  4. One thing when you are looking for a 1/1 car to measure and photograph......the owner must allow you to touch, climb all over and at times tape materials to the subject to get shapes and profiles correct. So at times, owners of really valuable vehicles, have a no touch rule......the 1/1 must also be convenient or near other subjects you can study too. I have no first hand info on the S&H car....but this is how it was years ago when I helped out with a few vehicles. 3 model cars in the RM line all lived within a mile of each other in NC......3 got to help with. So it can be a combination of 'whys'.
  5. I'll be there.....look for the black wheelchair guy!!
  6. VERY COOL!!!! that's how it looks!!
  7. And why I had the comment '. A regular oven temp is not regulated well enough. ' in my post......
  8. ALL my builds are run through my food dehydrator after body pint applied. If I use Tamiya I can paint in the morning and decal/foil that night. A regular oven temp is not regulated well enough.
  9. Okey Spalding has them from time to time.....also ebay etc. All 1/25 scale AMX's or Javelin AMX'S (71-74) were tooled by JoHan and sold by AMT and JoHan. We need a new tool Javelin that could spawn all the Javelin and AMX versions.

  17. wasn't that 2013???
  18. I used to buy every year from him.......I think one of his first full resin kits......the Goldenrod LSR car. Too bad....had a number of items I wanted to see before buying.
  19. Again......great craftsmanship.........maybe I missed it....what do you thin nail polish with???
  20. Any one know if Jimmy Flinstone resin be there???
