    Kurt , you're doing a great job to convince people to move to AZ when already having swap meets and we look like this ! 😄

    That truck is looking so awesome, you're really doing some top notch work. I also like that your not afraid to paint something a different color than what the perception should be. Ive painted a lot of 1/1 engines non factory colors and have caused a lot of melt downs over that !

    Heat wave here this morning 23 degrees above, feels like a long sleeve t shirt day after a few weeks of being in the negative 30-40 temps. 😄

    That's a really nice BD present , be sure to follow up on how you like it.

    No doubt. I'm envy of Michael's knowledge and energy.

    Dang, there goes my idea of riding out to a launch site in that new car with the top down with a Saturn V in the back 😄

    There use to be an old Hudson Terraplane sitting in the weeds of a back yard located Cripple Creek Colo. It was green and had the remnants of a Hardware / Mining store logo painted on the door. This was the coolest truck Id ever seen as it had the body signature of a 1980's street rod.

    The Ford is the blue car 1/4 mile ahead ! 😄

    A big disappointment - been looking for the Charles Carpenter '55 kit for some time , found one still sealed and the shipper wrapped the kit in paper. It didnt travel well.

    Minus forty one this morning and my wife's car started! Seat felt like a oak plank when I got in.

    Out of 25 plus years of buying model kits off ebay - I got one. A kit wrapped with paper only and mailed from New York to Montana. A sealed OOP desirable kit at that. Box was mushed and a bonus hole in it from the abuse the USPS is known to dish out. I haven't been brave enough to break the seal and check contents.

    I'm surprised the "Phantasm Cuda" hasn't made the list.
  14. Old Buckaroo
    Thank you for that clarification 👍

    Ok so I'm confused here, " the vendor is dropping support for screen names" does that mean our screen name will be replaced by our email or we getting assigned a number like in prison ? Ive been a member for 15 some years and never had any issues with my account, not once did anyone try taking credit for my mediocre models. Perhaps the hacking issue is from being able to use facebook to log in - you know what they say the more cooks in the kitchen .....

    I use a hobby saw that takes blades like the old gillette razors for making lines through putty. The fine blade is forgiving . Attached is a pic of the internet - my saw pics always have a project in the background and I don't want to derail your thread. Disclaimer - I use regular auto body putty on my models..

    Local news for Billings Montana, a Postal worker employed at the package sorting facility was stealing sports cards. He boosted a collection then tried to sell it back to the store who had originally shipped it to another collector. Link provided for your reading enjoyment for this piece of excrement handling parcels. https://www.ktvq.com/news/crime-watch/ex-postal-worker-admits-to-stealing-mail-containing-sports-memorabilia-from-billings-facility

    Very nice Mike, too bad on the decals. I would look for some MicroScale Alphabet decals to finish it out.

    Got one of my most wanted in the mail today after a helpful forum member pointed me in the direction of it. Its in great shape assembly wise. Gust enough glue that parts have fallen off rather than fused forever. It is missing one radius rod for the front. If I cant source one I will scratch build a replacement. It will be cleaned up, rebuilt and hopefully I can find a set of decals also. On another note - I have figured out where all those resin wrinkle wall slicks Ive bought over the year originated from.. (Monogram)

    Kurt the chrome finish is outstanding and I bet those cans do sound cool ! My launches are hindered here by being breezy or too dry. But I still build them for those ideal conditions.
  21. Old Buckaroo
    I cant wait to see what you do with this. That is my all time favorite truck model, I use to pay some crazy money for them built and unbuilt before Round 2 reissued them.

    Sam Posey the Indy race car driver was also a Model Railroader. I remember this subject came up on maybe (?) another forum years ago and there was several "A listers" that built models.
  23. Old Buckaroo
    Ive had international mail show up amazingly quick. Especially Royal Mail from Hannants !
  24. Old Buckaroo
    Nice work on all the scratch built tid bits, the Blue body has the wow factor!

    A pleasant drive to the next town over - Miles City (90 miles RT) today.
