  1. True but from a lot of the comments I'm not the only one. However if you find enjoyment in the show great, I'm sure you're not alone or it wouldn't be on the air.
  2. How inconsiderate of you. Those were important texts and you were making all that noise. LOL. Personally I agree. Nothing more irritating. Expecially the one finger salute.
  3. Another technique for opening doors is to use 2 bodies. Cut the door opening on one and the cut the door with extra material and fit it to the first. What condition are the other two bodies? You could add plastic to shim the doors to fit the body. The picture of the body shown doesn't look salvageable because of the broken pillar.
  4. Absolutely too many complain about what they don't have rather than being grateful for what they have. I heard a saying years ago I complained I had no shoes until I saw someone with no feet. Hope all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
  5. I agree. Any category that says stock needs to be reasonably stock. Generic cars with stickers to define the manufactuer miss the point.
  6. Cool project. Will be watching.
  7. Beyond the silliness of the reality tv part((although it has no resemblence to reality) is the fact that it glorifies the illegal activity of street racing. Even NHRA told drivers if they raced in the shows that they would pull their racing license. What's next a reality show glorifying bank robbery. If they aren't racing on a track then the show needs to be pulled.
  8. You expect them to stop texting or talking on the phone just becauuse the light changed LOL.
  9. Unfortunately that is true. Its done to broaden the veiwing audiencs. I'm not into fake drama and refuse to pay for tv when a majority of it is reality based programming. Besides too much fake drama in our daily lives without having to pay for the privilege of paying to watch it.
  10. Nicely done. Looks like it would be nice on a cool evening.
  11. Super clean custom. Nicely done.
  12. Nicely done . Great paint. Great execution. I've seen one that used the fenders from the revell 34 with the buttera chassis.
  13. That is truly a crazy price. Not something I'd spend that much money on.
  14. Yea oi know what you mean. I think a lot of places are pushing to close locations. Retailers have been using the virus to push credit and debit card and take less cash. I just don't see this as progress.
  15. Gotta say. The beauty of this site is I can watch this masterpiece come together. Francis did you make the shocks?
  16. Tom I take this permanent closures and not temporary?
  17. Sorry generic cars don't cut it my book. A body should be powered by that manufacturers engine. In my opinion corporate sponsorship has been a blessing and a curse. Its also messed up pro stock in drag racing. If it says stock it needs to look like a stock version and powered by an engine of the body styles manufacturer. Besides that it should be heads up racing. No countdowns. Run all the races and the winner is the winner.
  18. Cool project. Coming along nicely.
  19. Very impressive work. Lots of nice details and very clean work.
  20. In my opinion you need to tell your nephew there are certain things he cannot touch. If he wants to see one of your models he needs to ask. If he does touch or break a model then scold him. If not, you are doing him a disservice because he will never learn to respect others property. Failure to do so will no doubt lead to more broken models in the future.
  21. A sharp ride. Impressive work. Congratulations on the awards at highly competive event with some high cars. Love the superclean work.
  22. That is one sharp 57. It was nice before your changes but your changes kicked it up a notch.
  23. You really need to establish rules for when your nephew is at your house. You're fortunate he was not hurt.. He could have gotten into where your hobby knifes are and gotten hurt. Its not always possible to make a place kit safe but they have to understand what they can and cannot do at your house. Models are off limits but he can ask to see something.
  24. The management style has been prevalent for quite a while and if anything its gotten worse.
