Decal sheets stuck together
Dave Van replied to redscampi's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
That may work well.....but beware as you may activate the glue to the point it glues the transfer/decal to the paper......or be prepared to use them all within minutes!!! -
Decal sheets stuck together
Dave Van replied to redscampi's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
The glue on the decal paper has gotten damp enough to cause it to become tacky. That can range from 'easy to separate' to impossible to save. There is no real trick to getting them apart.......You might try using a sheet of plastic, very thin like .010, and push it between the sheets. See what happens. PS: check with Indycals as he may repro those. -
Odd Place to Find Models

Only one kit caught my eye.....Tamiya Ford Serra It was over priced IMHO as were 99% of the rest. Looks like an estate donation. -

A number of years ago I made a few laser cut kits. The first was the AMT Lil Yeller conversion. You used the Lil Gasser reissue and my laser cut parts. Next I did Cashbox.. I also offered a kit for the Casper Phonebooth MPC kit. It was just the phone booth you added to a T chassis/fender. I'd repro the TTT phone booth but I do not have a working laser machine right now and fixing my commercial machine is around $4000.......so until I get that sorted.......maybe at some time I'll be able to make some phone booth parts. Thx

You are about 30 years to late. In the 1990's our club in Charlotte had a number of national events. The 1990 contest was even covered on a national TV show. We had the major kit manufactures and all the then big aftermarket folks. Sadly the Road Knights no longer have any events and I am not sure they even are around today. After putting on a number of major event the club just died out. AMS is nowgone too... Bob was head of Revell Monogram at the time. Now retired.

MPC-988 1/25 George Barris Granny's Hot Rod $35.99 TBA
Dave Van replied to ss2000's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
The kit was always a 2 in 1 kit. 'Stock' or custom version when Jethro hot rodded it. But there is a 3rd version in the box not called out. The half done version......... The kit is also a good basis for other builds. I used the BH kit to build my Haney's truck from Green Acres... -
Been rumored for years.......hope it has all the goodies!!! In for a few if it does.
