  1. It's EASY to keep the peace.......I buy a model.....she buys a ball of yarn.
  2. There was a store right up the street from my brothers house in Columbus.......LOVED the store......reminded me of old school drug stores I knew growing up. But it closed early this year. I did get some great model buys there. Too bad they are gone from the area.
  3. I like your design and craftsmanship........but the craftsmanship blows me away!!!!! I like it even though it cost me money........I have to buy one of those cutters!!
  4. The only part Mike got wrong on that film was the timing.........it's almost here.....not hundreds of years away.......... Beef Supreme will be famous soon and guitar armys will become common.
  5. Thank you!!! I love 'her'..........
  6. JAVELIN.........my vote is tainted by what is in my barn.....but I prefer Javelins over AMX......but I like to be different.......
  7. My two too....... The Elliott Torino sits on a Mongram Thunderbird chassis and the S&H car rides on ARII wheels and tires.
  8. Very nice work....I have the kit........yet to attempt!
  9. Thanks Dave D!!!!
  10. My plans for the dash, if I ever got that far, was to draw up the artwork and have it printed in foil on a ALPS printer. Might lack some thickness.......but under glass the effect would be great.
  11. Nice neat clean build......like it!
  12. Built a white page?????
  13. Glad you had a good trip. I grew up in So Cal and Dad was racing director for Valvoline so I did lots of 'car' stuff. To bad Peterson museum was closed as it is a great place too.
  14. very nice work!
  15. A modern tool 71-72 has a number of options as Tim says. Just tool both hoods, scoop Mach1 and base model flat, so we can finally get a model of the REAL Elanor!!!
  16. Have not been able to insert via link since the change. As long as I am at home I just download.......but only way for me.
  17. It will be interesting to see what the 'open all closed gates' gives us. That MAY be goo......
  18. BECAUSE there is still a group of us that are willing to pay cash for it. Enough to make a profit R2 thinks. And judging by the price they have sold for on ebay some are willing to pay a LOT for them. Sunday a ZZR went for almost $300 and a Cashbox more.....both 'stupid' showrods. If you don't want to buy a kit.......just pass it by. Negativity we have more than enough of that in the world outside this forum. I seek out the vast majority of positive folks here. thx
  19. Very sorry for your loss........ I like to look at it as all the years of love and care you gave to your buddy......and how good of a life he had. I can say I understand as we lost a 14 year old kitty 2 months ago. Our first Manx and we had hand raised her. It can be very tough. Thanks for the great care you provided.
  20. It came with AMT GMC COE kits back inn the day......Not sure if anyone does it in resin.....but I picked up a unbuilt of ebay a few years ago cheap. This is one I built back in the day....
  21. My version of the Revell Nancy kit.....slightly modified with new rear tires and body altered. A pretty nice kit for it's age.
  22. Nice work......I've built plastic loco kits from Monogram, Kit Master, AHM/Rivirossi and MPC.
  23. I see a few I've been bugging John G for!!!!!!!!
  24. On the new Moebius Ford pick-up kits most of the chassis will dry fit together and stay assembled......so yes....between fit and positive locators modern kits should.
