  1. X When you type in the search term you have to be sure of the spelling. Or use a part you know is in the name.
  2. Nice start. Beautiful work on seat and new engine mount.
  3. Thanks Bill. If iI came into a lot of money I would have him build a car for me. I've seen lots of his cars at the roadster show when it was in Oakland and the Bay area. Just gorgeuos work.
  4. Nice work. Sometimes the little stuff can drive you crazy.
  5. It is even more important to get out to vote regardless of which political party you belong to. It always dismays me when voter turn out is low.
  6. I agree 100 percent. It is easy to overlook that fact. There are always those who give the ultimate sacrifice for our rights.
  7. Absolutely gorgeous. Super clean.
  8. Great start.
  9. No matter this is a political hatchet job. They didn't have to give names because the its not too hard to figure out who is being targeted. If there was something criminally done there would have been a special prosecutor and there would have been an investigation. Obviously there wasn't enough for such action. So we got this instead. It would be really interesting to see the list of who put up the money to make this movie.
  10. Pass. I won't pay to watch political propganda.
  11. Neat idea. Great start for this tutorial. Will be following.
  12. Nice work. Those kits are always good for slump busters.
  13. Very cool. Nice work. Great concept.
  14. Nice start. Beautiful work on chop. The roof flows nicely.
  15. It also depends on what type of car you are building. Current race cars use a truss type design that has been used sitarting around the 1960s. Typically the tubing size is 1 and 5/8th which scales to about 1/TH OFan inch. The contruction is very strong and lightweight. The disadvantage of using sprue is it is way too big. Also finding long enough sections can be a challenge. Another is is there is normally mold lines and the shapes is not always round. Which means you will be spending a lot of time with ckeanup to get something workable. Evergreen is not that expensive and will make your projects easier to do. Also for drag cars check out some of tyrones builds he has the chassis work down to a science.
  16. Really cool. Nice job.
  17. Thanks for the follow up Art. Would it be possible to show a picture.
  18. Coming along nicely.
  19. Nice work. This is going to be a beauty when finished.
  20. Was at the Barnes &Noble in Chico, California and they did not have it. However they never have had it. I usually get mine from Paradise Hobbies in Paradise California.
  21. Definitely cool. Looking forward to seeing the chassis mods. Will be following.. Interest is seeing the air brushed art work.
