  1. I like where this is headed. I would lean towards the caddy engine cause shine runners would leave the car looking stock but the engine would be hopped up or swaped out for something more powerful than the cops had in order to out run them. I just don't think the flathead would cut it. But it's your model do as you wish.

  2. I just about lost it while the forum was down today I needed a fix for you guys bad. I would have went to the bench and worked on one of my six projects I got going but I need more eye candy for four of them Cause I have what I call Artist block cause I can't decide how I want to paint them up. But to kind of calm my shakes down a bit I went and scowered the internet for aftermarket suppliers, resin casters, and whatever else I could find relating to models. But it wasn't the same as being here with you guys. Oh and as for the other two projects one is waiting for the green light for the build contest and the other is awating funds to get the parts I need to finish it. I want to go to a big model show at least once in my life. I was in a little local show put on by a hobby shop thats gone out of buisness. It was the first time I ever entered a show and to my surprise I took third place in the street class. I lost the original model put I plan on remaking it. It had alot of firsts for me on that model. Anyway glad the forum is back so I can get my styrene fix.

  3. I forgot to mention that for bodies I use a coat hanger bent to fit in the body tightly and it alows me to turn it and keeps my hands from the overspray and it also serves as a drying stand when i'm done cause i just go hang the body upside down in the closet. here's pics to show how it works.
