If you don’t have anything I’m into, just help someone else out when you can. -

I have one. It appears to have everything but the body. Send a PM with your address. If you want to do a trade, I’m interested in street rods, 1980s and up funny cars and top fuel dragsters, 1930s coachbuilt cars, motorcycles excluding Harley-Davidson, but Revell choppers are cool. (I would modify for a Japanese or European engine) and lots of other things. No NASCAR or big commercial vehicles. -

I chopped up a couple of 612s a few years ago, trying to make one look more like a pre-production sketch. I can check to see if I still have parts. If so, you can have them. I’m at lunch right now. It will be later tonight or tomorrow. -
Thank you. I’ll get one ordered and see if it will work.

I’ve been hoping for a 1/16 Leopard 2 for a while. I was an M1A1 tanker stationed in Germany. I got to climb around a Leo 2 (don’t remember which variant) in the late 1990s. Such a cool tank. Up until now, the other options in 1/16 were a cheap rc tank that lacked detail and a Tamiya rc that was also sold as a display only model. The Tamiya kit has better detail, but rare as hen’s teeth, and expensive when it could be found. This new kit has an MSRP of US $199.99, with a pre-order price of US $179.99. The Tamiya kit can easily cost three times as much, so I’m pretty excited about this. Check out Andy’s video. This model is HUGE. Being a tanker was such a cool job. I always worked at getting better, and I was good. Having said that, I am glad that I never fired a shot in anger. Fast forward to 18:48 for the 1/16 Nashorn and Hummel.

What would YOU like to see as a model
LDO replied to JeroenM3's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
A 3D printed Cadillac OHV (331/365/390) V8 in 1/8 scale. Add optional intake manifolds and blower. -
Found one at a decent price. Now if only I could find a 1/10 scale Black Lab for a passenger 👍🏻

Styrene solvent glue and Tamiya putty
LDO replied to BK9300's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I think it would vary, depending on how much liquid cement. I think it will be safe to sand tomorrow night, but I still need to add filler pieces at both bottom corners. All of the glue joints are also Tamiya Extra Thin liquid cement. -
Styrene solvent glue and Tamiya putty
LDO replied to BK9300's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I just mixed Tamiya putty with Tamiya Extra Thin cement and brushed it on the cut lines of a Revell ‘26 Ford Tudor Sedan that’s getting chopped up. Not sure I would have thought of this application without your thread. -
I saw a documentary about crows. In Japan, their nests were interfering with electrical lines. The utility companies started removing nests. In response, crows began building dummy nests; nests they didn’t use. That’s a pretty smart animal.

That’s really cool. It looks like it could be from Star Trek. -
Does anyone make a large scale 3D printed 1971 Chevelle?
LDO replied to LDO's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
My friend is looking for large scale. -
I love that photo. I’ve made several memes with and used it without captions. I’m a plumber and did some work at my sister’s house. She texted me and said the toilet is leaking from the tank. I didn’t remember everything I worked on there. Did I work on that? No.

sleeper instructions needed
LDO replied to blackbeard's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I opened this thinking you wanted to know how to model a fast car that looks like something granny drive to church on Sundays.
