Model kit prices
Badluck 13 replied to pete3522's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Woolworth's.....ah yeah I remember buying my kits from there and I also remember the winter of '76 they had a bargain bin full of discontinued kits and older annuals for something like $2.00-$3.00...I remember my first semi I built came from a local hobby story,it was the GMC Astro,I paid $12.00 for it and my dad paid the tax on it because it bucks was all I had and I thought that was high then..... -
Ben,how could you be so negative???? .....No honestly,Thank You, I am glad you pointed that out because you are so right,never noticed it until now....will be yanking it off and re-doing it. As far as the rust,Anthony Oteri gave me the heads up on "Sophisticated Finishes",got it at Michaels,the stuff is awesome and very easy to use!!!

What's the story behind your user name/avatar?
Badluck 13 replied to JollySipper's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
My user name is from a song my daughter n I like and it was one she learned on guitar,"Bad Luck" by Social Distortion,and the "13" came from part of the lyric she likes "Thirteens my lucky number,to you that means stay inside,black cat done crossed my path,no reason to run and hide....",The avatar is my most precious daughter "Bev" in the Covair that she helped,and I do mean helped get runnin' this past summer..........lifes good -
