High octane

Use just a small bit of masking tape to hold the windows in place and leave a bit of the tape loose in the air so you can pull it off later. Then use 5 minute epoxy and glue the windows in place and let it dry real good before pulling off the tape. The bottom of the windows need to be sanded down some, especially the rear quarter window area or it'll hit the interior tub.

Why? Just build in YOUR "comfort zone" and enjoy the hobby. Simple.

Which car did you order Harry???

Clay, you need to take the parts OFF the tree and remove the chrome plating by soaking the parts in bleach. then you need to sand the mold lines off and where the parts were connected to the tree. Then send the parts to Chrome Tech USA as they do good work and have done a few things for me.

Over the years I've been tryin' to build up a stack of hundred dollar bills, but I'm not doin' so well as yet.

Yes, wearing a respirator is a very good idea and I wish that I started wearing one a lot sooner than I did. Of course I just love the smell of lacquer. The fumes not only get in your lungs, but also in your liver. A quick spray of a part, I won't wear one, but when I spray a whole body I certainly do.

I'd really like to, but I'm going to have to plan on going next year.

I use one of the bedrooms for my den. I build models in it, read books/magazines, pay bills, watch TV, listen to music, and also yak on the phone, as well as use my laptop in this room.

That Mopar is lookin' good. Of course most Mopars do.

I rarely go to Michaels as they usually have very little to offer as far as kits & paints go, however my Hobby Lobby that is a 1/2 mile away has a good selection of kits & paints and supplies and I use the 40% off coupon often.

Lotsa gassers were runnin' scoops in the mid-60's, lots.

It's been issued twice by Model King, so I don't think that you'll be seeing it on the shelves for awhile.

I've been using Testors lacquer paints for years and I love it!

I like grilling some shrimp on skewers along with a steak, a less expesive "surf & turf."

I was lucky enough to get both re-issues and the one I opened had the original decal sheet in it. Hopefully I'll build this soon.

That bottom photo is Gabby Bleeker driving his Physco altered as I have seen him at both Rockford and Union Grove back in the 60's.

Tom, please STOP posting food pics as you're making me hungry. LOL!

Looks good and we'll be expecting to see a LOT of nice builds from you in the near future.

That "Poncho" looks really good!

Welcome to the forum Andrew and those models are really nice. I can see that your stepdad is leading you into the right direction.

Welcome Kevin and by your screen name I thought that you might be a cop. I guess not.

Nice pics, thanks for sharing.

NO GSL pics as of yet and when the NNL East was over there were TONS of photos. While I've never been to s GSL Meet, it's not on my bucket list as I was in Salt Lake City back in '78 and even visited with Mark Gustavson at his home. At the time, I didn't see anything that was special about Salt Lake City.

Smaller hobby shops have been dying off since the 70's and young boys interest has changed since the fabulous 60's as more sports programs evolved as well as electronics. What was then, will NEVER be the same so if you were there "back-in-the -day," I hope you have fond memories of days gone by.

Really nice job on that "T-Bolt" as it looks ready to ROCK!
