  1. Like the look of the color. Coming along nicely.
  2. Nice save. Mishaps in final assembly can really be a show stopper. Glad you were able to fix it so cleanly.
  3. Definitely. In the age of the computer it's too easy to respond in haste. When we wrote letters there was a chance to rethink things before they got mailed. As far as the issue with parts replacement it was the people who took advantage to get free parts. It's not hard for the companies to figure out what is happening. And of course they need to curtail the theft.
  4. Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.
  5. Glad to see you are finishing. Some very nice work so far. That engraving technique is brilliant.
  6. Glad to see you are finishing this up. Love the paint on the dragster.
  7. I agree. Please post your work.
  8. That's true but I don't like the idea of keeping lots of flamable materials in the house.
  9. The frame is stunning. An amazing project.
  10. Dead ends never lead anywhere.
  11. Day by day we all grow older.
  12. Admirable behavior is the best practice if civility is to be maintained.
  13. I agree. Do the best you can to fix it. Chalk it up to experience. My view is unless it's a rare kit or a body with mods or heavy detail it doesn't make sense to strip it.
  14. I would suggest keeping the cans in the garage and only bring the cans in to warm up when you are going to paint. Maybe a day before.
  15. Both are very cool builds. Andy love the creativity of your build. Lots of great work.
  16. Point blank range usually means you aren't going to miss your target.
  17. Interesting project. Looking forward to seeing more progress. Glad to see you're getting some bench time I always learn from your projects.
  18. Looks like it's repairable with some TLC. But it's going to take a bit of work. Interested in seeing how you solve the challenges.
  19. Great start. Love the idea of a street version Willys pickup.
  20. No truer words have been spoken.
  21. Another derailment (the third in last month) for Norfolk. Fortunately no hazardous materials however will the next one be so lucky.
