High octane

Revell has some great Mopar kits, however JoHan has a much better selection and MCW has some good Mopar items as well. Of course Modelhaus has the '68 Dodge Coronet R/T kit that everybody thinks that Revell or another company would make before hell freezes over, but they can "dream on."

I've used Testors White Primer many times with great results and Tamiya White Primer as well. I don't do any spoon/sprue tests and whatever happens, happens. so far I've been very lucky as I don't test colors either. I just shoot from the hip.

One week from tonight ( Fri. Nov. 1st) will be the AMG club meeting in Oak Creek. Wisconsin and there will be an auction that night.

I only use grey primer if the color coats are to be black or silver. White primer will give your color coats a truer color as the grey primer darkens them a tad.

Cars were built to be driven, otherwise you might as well store them in your living room so you can admire them on a daily basis.

I know the people who own the Chi-Town Hustler and I heard that when Revell went to the garage to take measurements as well as measurements of the Hawaiian, that the cost of tooling the CTH was to be $148,000 and it is the ONLY funny car with the offset engine and driver compartment.

Only 2,010 miles, what good is it if you don't DRIVE it???

From Brazil? I just saw a Brazilian woman that I've met before, just yesterday. She is from Rio.

Welcome to the forum Tuomas as this is a great place to be.

Oh well.....................................

I've dealt a few times with Norm both on the phone and in person and he is a great guy to do business with.

Great job on that Hooters car as I have one in my "stash" somewhere.

Great job Terry and may she R.I.P.

JD is a VERY talented builder and won big a few times when Craig Sincora and I were runnin' the contest for Tom Lima Jr. at the Hillside Holiday Inn back in the mid-80's

I would like one in a heartbeat as I had to have mine put down almost three years ago. But we redecorated the house including new carpeting, and my asthma doctor suggests I don't have any cats or dogs. Yeah, I could get another doctor. LOL!

It takes money to make money Harry. And even if you could afford those cars back then, do you have a place to store them? Would you have money to insure them? And don't forget about money to maintain them as well. A LOT of people don't think of those things when they go to car shows & cruise nights and just figure on the price of a car they would like. I know of one guy who recently bought a Buick Grand National and has to pay $175 a month for a garage to store it as he lives in a condo. He shoulda thought about that first.

That 'Vair came out lookin' really good. Mine looked good back-in-the-day, but not that good.

I wish I could fill up my tank for only $50 but I have a 34 gallon tank.

Good time at the S.L.A.M. club meeting today with an auction and of course FOOD also. Lots of kits, resin bodies, magazines, posters, hats, large scale kits, paints, etc. on the auction table.

Welcome Jeff, and I just saw JD Booth at the DuPage Swap Meet in Wheaton last month.

I used to go to and enjoy that show, but I'm not hangin' with the guys I went with anymore.

Not Rick, but the S.L.A.M. club is, held a Rickie's Rods in Delavan, Wisconsin.

Great find! I myself would just dust them off and display them the way they are, and show others "the way it was."

The Kemps Show was on the 5th of October in Cedarville, Illinois.

It's ONLY money.
