  1. I took a chance and ordered a few sets from Lucas, had an email from him within a few hours and my decals in 4 days. Whatever his problems were he seems to have everything back under control. I'll order again without reservations.
  2. If it were on a Saturday.
  3. Me three !
  4. I made a trade with a forum member in the UK, Great guy, trade was fair, but it cost me enough to ship the model I sent that I could have bought a kit like the one I traded for.
  5. I mostly buy out of production kits so my first choice is to buy at swap meets.
  6. OK, so we have the when, what's the where?
  7. Noblesville Indiana B&N has Model Cars Mag!
  8. Two big scratch build / sculpts that will never be kitted, 1. 1974 Dodge Monaco Bluesmobile. 2. 1954 Corvette Nomad. No one but me seems to be interested in these cars, so un-saleable.....
  9. I just bought a hood from Time Machine Resin on ebay last week, I'll let everyone know how it comes out.
  10. Things are still listed on ebay.
  11. Anybody with a large spare parts box want to build the Johnny Cash "One piece at a time" Cadillac?
  12. For styling? Almost everything built since the mid '70's. For reliability? Almost anything British or Italian. For rust issues? Anything from the '70's and '80's. I remember as a kid my grandparents bought a new '60 Corvair, it was such a great car they owned nothing but Fords from then on. Bad / unpopular / ughy cars have been around forever.
  13. I think the Hart's Parts Resin headers are the ones from the JoHan 64 Dodge kit, I've had great service from him.
  14. Yes, that's a horn, the tube goes through the firewall to a squeeze bulb near the lower left corner of the windshield.
  15. Kris, you have a PM.
  16. Pro Stock 64 Plymouth? Must be like those 429 Corvettes. Kidding aside, I'm glad to see this kit.
  17. GM did build V8 Monzas (same chassis) with 262 CI engines, I heard Cali cars got a 350, but can't confirm.
  18. Hart's Parts resin has a 71 hidden headlamp grill that fits the AMT kit, will it work? http://www.hartspartsresin.com/resin-parts-list/amt
  19. That car is either a 74 / 75, or an updated earlier car. (very common thing to do) I don't think there were any significant differences between the 71 and 72's.
  20. And a Grumpy Jenkins version too! (AMT may have the rights, they did the 66 Nova toy one)
  21. If you want to see the "tailpipe" on any electric car drive to the power plant and you'll see it, about 200 feet tall belching black smoke.
  22. I drove it from central Indiana to Niagara Falls with the Manx Club last June, 1400 miles in 5 days. The photo is from Mid America Funfest, also last June, In Efington Ill. Always drive it, I don't own a trailer. The red one belongs to a friend that lives nearby.
  23. Bare metal foil and clear red or clear amber paint works for me.
