Are you into 1/43 or aircraft? Perry

Bob, Are you open to any foreign or race cars? Perry

Bob, Would love to have one. I don’t have much rod stuff, but here goes. The 32 Ford looks complete, engines glued together clean. Rest are new either sealed or only opened to inspect. Let me know if any of these would work. I built one when they first came out. Been looking for one since. I’m 66. Thanks, Perry

He replied to my message asking for as an. I haven’t been able to get back to him. I have the actual decals for a 1/43 kit. Hoping to just have him scan those, blown them up and print. Perry

Is there anyone out there that can help print decals? I have a 1/43 scale McLaren M8D, with the Led Zepplin decals. They sponsored an M8D back in the day. Is there anyone that could take the great quality 1/43 decals and scale them and print them in 1/20 scale for an MPC M8D? Thanks, Perry

Well said Bruce. Nice for a while for the money, but good you don’t need it. Could walk away if it turns ugly. Hope you get to go fIshing and build models again soon. I’m enjoying my retirement building models, working on my wife’s ‘59 Bugeye, and old stereos. Perry

Nice Bruce. I bet it’s a whole other world out there. Perry

I’d say not retired, but a license to print money with your skills. Good on you. Looks like fun. Sometimes though these rich people can bite back pretty hard. Perry

Had a chance to apply it to a piece of black sprue and it looks really nice. Shines great too. Doesn't rub or smudge off. I like it and at $9.99 for the three pack it's a good deal. Perry

Have a 1959 Austin Healey Bugeye that is my wife's car. Doing interior this year and paint next year. Very solid California car. We're the third owners. And my TR-6. Great driver and needs nothing right now other than a tune and oil change. Still cold here so they're still in the garage. Picture of the interior is how we are doing it. TR6 picture with my son driving.

Just got this off Amazon. It’s Sruoloc chrome pens. Never heard of it. Anyone here try it? Perry

Complete 1/12 scale Suzuki GSX 1300 R Hayabusa kit, metal, trade for whatever you have. Thanks, Perry

Dash shaping up and some primer on the body. Back to the doors. Perry

Had a great trade with Rescued Customs. Recommended. Perry

Anyone have a Smokey Trans Am kit to trade? I want to build one for a co-worker. Let me know what you need. Thanks, Perry

Thanks Pierre. It helps to be able to go out to the garage and check my work. I agonized over the dash as I thought I’d have to scratch build one. Then, hit on the idea to just modify the existing one. Lots easier. My first attempt at doors too. Lucky I guess. I retired last March. Maybe taking more time to do things helps too. Perry

A little more work on the dash. Need gauge bezels and gauge faces. Pics of the real one. Perry

Tackling the dash a bit. Got some new holes drilled, and the steering wheel boss moved. More holes than needed, I think this will work. Some holes will be plugged and I’ll need gauge bezels. Built up the interior of one door also. Adde a bit of square strip around the inside for the metal panel to sit on and cut the pocket off the rest of the door inner piece. There is a matt that lines the door skin insides. I’ll use masking tape for that. Perry

Worked on the doors and hinges again. Need to build the inner doors. Starting on the dash. Need to scratch build a left hand drive dash. Magnets installed on body for bonnet. Will start on the engine in the transkit too. Perry

Here it is. Perry

I know I have the grill from the AMT Catalina. What have you got to trade? I need parts for the AMT Riviera, and AMT ‘53 Studebaker. Any foreign stuff? Perry

I do have some turntables to put with it. A couple of Phillips 312’s. Need to fix them a bit too. A reel to reel deck also. Perry

Small update, haven’t worked on it lately. Been restoring a Harman Kardon 330 B receiver. A little tedious. I did get some very small magnets to hold the doors. Can’t wait to use them. Perry

I believe I have an SMT. ‘62 Catalina grille. Is that what you need? Perry

Great trades with Timmy. Thanks. Will have to get building. Perry
