    I believe it's an R & R resin piece - four door hard top. One is listed on eBay as we speak, or read.

    I'll give you double what you paid. Kevorkian brothers? Probably a sick joke in that somewhere.
  3. Erik Smith
    Awesome paint. Great build overall.

    Masking those decals must be quite a task. Thanks for clarifying how you do it, though. I had seen some of your decals printed on clear sheet and couldn't figure out how you did them. Now I know. Cool work!
  5. Erik Smith
    Nice repair! Cool build too. I hate when things go bad.
  6. Erik Smith
    Cool model.

    Followed along with the WIP - learned a lot and enjoyed it. The finished product is great. I really like the mirrors - they add so much to the look of a postal Jeep. Excellent job!

    I built the rally version - I don't remeber Wing Mirrors. I guess I should be more observant. Thanks, though.
  9. Erik Smith
    I second that.

    Ugh. My 48 Ford is piled up... Somehow I got sidetracked and have been working on a Gremlin - double ugh.
  11. Erik Smith
    No. It is not evil. End of story.

    What about side view mirrors? Neither this kit or Tamiya have them. Did minis?
  13. Erik Smith
    That is a very nice looking model. I really like the PE spoke wheels - that has to be a challenge in 1/32 scale.

    Search ebay completed listings. Only way to know what something is worth is to see what people have paid for it.

    I really like this build. The only thing I like better is the attitude you seem to have - the kit has no door handles, so, I'll make some. We can all learn quite a bit by everything going on here.

    Very ingenious. Plotter - so, like a vinyl cutter? I have always thought those coil be useful but never thought of cutting foil. Great.
  17. Erik Smith
    Very impressive work. Clean and beautiful. Now, about this printing on foil...how did that work? Regular printer? We had a thread awhile back about this so I ran some tests from my HP inkjet onto BMF and the ink wouldn't dry - it just rubbed off. Any tips?

    I know Mini Cooper wheels are tiny, but those wheels look really small or the rubber is too big. I heart minis so I will be acquiring one of these when available - we will see how it stacks against Tamiya...
  19. Erik Smith
    Nice. Don't see many 63s - and less built stock. Cool. Nice clean job too.
  20. Erik Smith
    Nice, clean building. Looks great. I have always thought the Eclipse was a very cool looking car.

    I think it depends on your base coat. Are you using Alclad II gloss black base? A lacquer base will not allow the chrome paint to "bite" and will rub off easily. The Alclad II base is an enamel.

    Nooooo! I wish Dennis well in his future endeavors. I will miss shipping with him.
  23. Erik Smith
    I like it! Turned out great. Excellent work - and speedy too.
  24. Erik Smith
    That is great! I really like the way it looks. Excellent work. I imagine it would be a scary driver.

    Hobbytown had somebody's old kits.
