  1. Not an easy kit to get look decent.....Great job
  2. Nice....I'll stick with the Modelhaus kit......
  3. Who cares about the cars.......who's the cute red head!?!?!?!?!?!? My wife is a red headed Irish girl (born in Paris Fr. but that's another story!!) She has been bugging me to make a trip 'home' someday....I'd like to go.....but like your insurance....$$$$$$ for now. The KA is not THAT bad....it is 'WHEELS"!!!!
  4. A bunch of good stuff is now missing........
  5. Woodland Scenics Snow. Most hobby shops....Hobby Lobby......(did I say that out loud??)
  6. An odd duck to make a model of. Any one have the 'why' this one was picked???? Is it popular or famous in other countries?? Cool looking kit.......I'd rather seen a Renault that was imported into the US .......
  7. Almost there. Per folks that know....in the final stages. Fall??? No.....but maybe Christmas we can hope......well worth the wait......
  8. I am so glad this season is over.........Red car fan here.....almost nothing to cheer about here. Not a Hamilton fan....nor a MB fan......so it was a LONG season for me!!!!
  9. Love a plastic kit.....buy a case of them.....easy to say as it will never happen!!!!
  10. Can't say much about the new Mustang.....last modern Stang I drove was a 14 V6......nice car BTW. BUT....Dad has a FLEX with the V6 twin turbo Eco-boost engine and 22 inch wheels all wheel drive. WHAT A HOT ROD! Dad's 80 and drives it pretty sane....but I drive it a good bit. When I took him to Ohio to see my brother I was getting on the Interstate....real short ramp....busy rush hour....I kicked in the turbo's and we left them all.......Dad said 'so THAT'S what the turbos are for!'.
  11. The entire YES catalog. Old folks may know YES.....but my 30 year son-in-law had never heard of them. As I age everything I like is obscure......
  12. NICE work.....love vintage F1.........hard to believe this is vintage!!!
  13. Dupli-color all the way here.....never have an issue with Gray primer sealer covering ANYTHING!
  14. Heard that too........but I can just keep the show character as my 'reality' and dismiss the real world. My grand daughter is an 'Abbey' and loves my cars, models and O scale trains!!!
  15. Thanks Don.......my day dreaming sometimes causes errors!! More than likely me thinking of combining kits to make what I'd LIKE to see...... Like my fantasy NCIS 30 Ford.......
  16. I have a 1960's era Monogram kit of a 1930 Ford coupe/roadster. It is a 4 in 1 kit like the box shown. I can't get to my kit right now....but IIRC the small catalog inside had a Pick up in the same style. I could be dreaming.....but sure I have seen it. These kits had a stock, custom, race version and with the 30, 34 and 36 kits either coupe or roadster.....making them akinda 6 in 1. This is the original Pheaton that was reissued a few years ago....much modified from this version.Well aware the Revell 1/25 scale kits are totally different. Found the 30 coupe box on the net.....
  17. Good overview of the 29 Ford. Wasn't the bench seat just taken from the original stock version of the 29?? I thought that's were it came from and not tooled new. The tool has been through many generations.....a BAB version would be cool someday.....maybe I'll repro it and we'll get that one!!
  18. I built this in 2011......figured we'd never get a real kit back.......
  19. WOW....
  20. It's a great well run show....or was every time I went. But I told myself I'd never go to ATL again after our 2011 trip to the show. We got caught up in some kind of drug/gang/whatever on the beltway....I thought I was in a F&F movie or something......but it was real with real guns.....never to darken ATL again.
  21. FANTASTIC work!!!!!! I met TV Tommy when Dad was racing director for Valvoline 1960-70. That is a great replica!
  22. There is a new Revell list out there......57 Ford Wagon one on it......check it out!
  23. This is better than the AMT kit!!!!!
  24. Love them Pinots!!!! NICE work. I learned to drive in a 72.....like the cars....
  25. Nice work! What decals.....I see no bleed....they look good,
