  1. I finished this build the other day and had added a resin Six Pack hood, hood pins, spark plug wiring, oil pan drain bolt, guitar string antenna, wheels from the LRW kit, and the front wheels also steer. The paint is Testors Plum Crazy.
  2. Yes Jameston is a good person to deal with as I have done so myself.
  3. Might as well instead of just paying off your bills as that would be too easy.
  4. Nice job on that Comet, really nice!
  5. That's a LOT of Moolah and I would definately buy a piece of land and have a garage built for my car and a couple others that I'd like to buy. Set money aside for my children and grand child also. And of course travel as well as make a donation to my church.
  6. Just give Arnie a phone call and I'm sure that he'll be happy to answer your questions.
  7. I've seen the model close up a few times and Kerry did an excellent job on it.
  8. While I'm not 100% sure, I would say that the model companies ALWAYS had to have licenses to produce any model car whether it was a promo or kit.
  9. Jacen, if you don't want to wait a lifetime for a kit of the '58 Ford, Modelhaus offers a '58 Ford convertible.
  10. None to my knowledge, they all mean the same.
  11. I want to wish every forum member and their families a VERY Happy Thanksgiving. Be thankful for what you have as there are many people who have far less than what we have.
  12. I used to live at Evergreen & Levitt Streets back in the 50's & early 60's and there was a candy/cigar store on the corner of Levitt & Division Streets that sold models there also.
  13. Ohio George also ran an "unchopped" '33 Willys like this one:
  14. Go to your local magazine rack and pick up all those subscription cards that fall out of them and onto the floor and use them for mixing pads as I have for years as I use a lot of epoxy on my builds. The cost is ZERO unless you start buying the magazines.
  15. It's lookin' good so far Kerry, keep up the good work.
  16. That's EXACTLY the way all car shows seem to me also. 5 minutes of cars and the rest of it is drama, who needs it?
  17. I ONLY build kits for me.
  18. Have a great time Bob and I'll see you at the December meeting.
  19. I hope to see you there.
  20. For a "modern day" Dart or 'Cuda I would use Drag Radials instead of slicks as they are very poplular at the time.
  21. Mike, your admission price to the show gets you into the contest and there is NO extra charge. You will get a pass to get in on Sunday to pick up your models, be sure to ask for one. The show itself looks to be the best ever as this is the fourth year and I've never been disappointed with it in any of the previous shows. Bring your camera so you can take some great reference photos for future builds, I know I will.
  22. Have you checked the Bat Cave?
  23. I've got one of those on order from Modelhaus and another one for my buddy also. They should be here soon.
  24. While I don't shop on Evil-bay, my brother-in-law was kind enough to find this kit I wanted and to spend my money. It's a 1959 Lincoln Continental convertible and it was my very first AMT kit when I was a kid. While it is not a "pristine" kit, it has never been painted and all the major parts are there as well as the instructions and decals and the box looks pretty good for its age of 53 years. What's your holy grail?
