  1. 14 million recalls THIS YEAR!!!!! NO EXCUSE.......I have not owned a lot of GM products....but never another for sure. BTW....my 82 Z28 was flawless......they DID know how to do it.
  2. To the UK only option is Priority Mail........costly. UPS might be cheaper.
  3. OK.....I'm old enough to have done similar work with 8mm film!!! So how do you do it today with electronic video??? I might have to try again myself! Cool
  4. You laugh....... Back in my college days.....not saying when but the Mustang II was a new car at the time...... I had a creative writing class......I had to write a short story. I like cars and Sci Fi. I wrote about a cop in 2020 that his personal car was a 70 Mustang. It was part of his intimidation MO....... But it was electric powered with a sound system that made it sound like it still had a BOSS 429!!! It was part of his image. Maybe Audi read it.
  5. Pretty good deal......but I use Dupli-color and I am lucky my local dept store carries it a $3.99 a can. Just went yesterday and bought 3 cans...they were out of white...but lady said she ordered some......I may be their biggest customer here in the backwoods!!! I have gotten good deals on Dupli-color spray cans of factory colors of Amazon.
  6. It will happen......folks get dumber everyday.......Much more concerned about 'Dancing with the Stars' or The Bachelorette than anything that may deeply impact their lives. Ask a fifteen year old today if they'd rather drive a car or be driven around while they play on their phones......I bet I know the answer.....
  7. Ahhhh.......My best buddy's Dad raced a Hudson also. He now owns 5 of the best Hudson's on the planet. His 37 Terraplane pick up was in the Peterson museum's recent 'Art of the pick up' as the center piece. I get to ride in some fantastic Hudsons and can learn from one of the true experts. Riding in the back of a 50 Hudson convertible around So Cal.....hard to beat!!! Take my word.....the Moebius drag Hudson will be a VERY nice kit.......more will be shown when appropriate!!!.
  8. Love turbines....love Studies......cool!
  9. STUNNING........
  10. 300 cid 6 in the base model and V-8 in the XLT or whatever they called it that year....
  11. It's a AMC......what's not to like!!!!
  12. Very nice build....... Love movie cars..... Love Mustangs....Own two 1/1 scale Love clean builds.... Now let's see you build the flying Matador!
  13. My grail!!!! A few years back a 1/25 scale die cast was announced, I reserved one......then it was canceled. I still want one.....but doubt I have the skill for this. LOOKS GREAT!
  14. SUPER CLEAN MY FAV!!!!!
  15. Very cool....my best buddy's Dad had one just like that in the 80's....he traded it for a Hudson....
  16. Some of my favorite F1 cars......RIP
  17. Great find! I did not know of that kit. Wish R2 would find these molds.......Plez!
  18. Per folks that have seen it.....a mix of Burton and Nolan Batmobiles.....so.....
  19. Super nice clean build......
  20. Thanks....but I built that back about 1995. It's a TD Paddy Wagon with Pie Wagon parts and wheels from a Monogram Woody. The rest is scratch built with the veggies from oven bake clay.
  21. Not an easy kit to make look that good.....nice work. I just struggled with that top myself....
  22. Whatever you grow.....I'll deliver it FAST!
  23. How about just a box top that was never made but the kit was??? Not 100% on topic....but an excuse to show it! I liked this version......but Sean's spin won out over this one I did. Maybe next time!!!
  24. To be honest the yellow just looks like world weary paint that has been hastily repair a number of times!!! I have yet to start mine....the kit is intimidating!
