  1. Yep its the law here too. What irked me today was last Friday...my cousin son was killed in a motorcycle accident here.
  2. Simply an Amazing build....!...very nice work love it...!
  3. Harry...some of the GTOs,etc. had rubber/urethane type painted bumpers than matched the body colors...box art is just probably making it hard to tell or just not accurate looking for the car. I love the old Craftsman kits...!
  4. Welcome Denny..! I have been building/restoring all my life too...great way to pass the time and keep active.
  5. I like it...! Very nice build...!
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Im going to have to look into that...thanks.
  9. Cool.... I wish someone would make a kit of one like AMT was going to years ago.
  10. 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)
  11. Ken...That GTO kit is awesome...! Man does that one bring back memories of building with my dad...
  12. Very nice build...those Caddys are sweet you did justice to her.
  13. Very nice work..! I like it very convincing weathering...I need to learn more about that.
  14. Very nice old projects......been after one of those 66 Chrysler 300s myself for years just love the shape and look of them.
  15. 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.
  16. COOL...! I missed getting one of those Open Road campers when they were out....I dig campers.
  17. Welcome Craig....Yep always room for more here....
  18. It helps you make nice clean built models Sheena....it sure has helped me.
  19. 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....
  20. 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.
  21. Nice build...I like the old school trucks.
