disabled modeler

I love promos and restoring them to the original condition...always looking for more for my collection of them. If I find ones that are too damaged to restore they become model projects or parts to save another promo someday.

YES...Me too Dave....I had one as a kid and would love to have another with all the original stuff in it...heck Id be happy with just all the extras it came with even the cardboard topper and phone company stuff.

Im going to have to look into that...thanks.

Cool.... I wish someone would make a kit of one like AMT was going to years ago.

I use ether of these two to de-chrome parts... Castrol Super Clean de-greaser Brake fluid...this one is easier on the hands I use the disposable medical type rubber gloves for a one time use I get a better feel of the part and can hold on to it better...just remember to wash all parts after the plating is gone well with warm soapy water under a sink(soap that has no oils or lotions in it)

Ken...That GTO kit is awesome...! Man does that one bring back memories of building with my dad...

Very nice build...those Caddys are sweet you did justice to her.

Very nice work..! I like it very convincing weathering...I need to learn more about that.

Real beauty....

Very nice old projects......been after one of those 66 Chrysler 300s myself for years just love the shape and look of them.

Awesome weathering....!

Sorry to hear that Lee....a few years back we had to have our oldest one put down she was 21...was very tough on us.

COOL...!

COOL...! I missed getting one of those Open Road campers when they were out....I dig campers.

Welcome Craig....Yep always room for more here....

It helps you make nice clean built models Sheena....it sure has helped me.

Welcome Chris....

That is just AWESOME..! Need to find a few of those for the family style car collection of builds...goes right along with my wagons....

Welcome Sheena....Were always glad to see anyone join us here...glad to have you with us..! There are very many really nice people here for any questions,etc. Best advise anyone ever gave me is to treat every part as if it were a model itself...good luck on your first build.

Nice build...I like the old school trucks.

Welcome Tony.... Sounds like you have a lot to share and teach us too...ask away there are many very kind helpful people here that love building and want to learn and expand their skills too.

Very cool...!

that is cool... I love wagons.

Pat.... Johan made a model and a promo of the Marlins...they were nice too.

Tom that horrible news...I had messaged with John many times seemed like a really nice guy...RIP John...MY deepest condolences to his family and friends...
