  1. a stereotypical lifestyle enjoyed by developmentally challenged middle aged .... oh, wait. that's the other thread. never mind.....
  2. did the original thread indicate how much we need pre WWII Chevrolets? you can get young rapey chics in white dresses a dime a dozen.
  3. not how you die that's important, but rather how you live
  4. (Mark B - still can't clip 'n' paste in this forum) - I think some folks (projecting here) don't add a ton of detail because it's intimidating when taken as a whole. but if there's one piece at a time included, the sum result is manageable. I've clipped & pasted Art's list into word, may even get it into XL, in order to use it as a stepping stone to improve. *hope that's not a copyright infringement; if I get sued it won't amount to much.
  5. grab a few episodes of M Squad. audio & visual.
  6. I think it's a great checklist. pick one or two to add per build and before you know it ..... you'll be counting the rivets on the boiler!
  7. I think it's kinda kick-a**
  8. flash. good modelers post finished builds and I see flash. the camera doesn't lie!
  9. that always throws a wrench in the gears! thanks
  10. wasn't there a threat from one of the more experienced builders to start a 'step by step' build thread? this may have been a month or so back. did it ever happen? thanks
  11. if I understand correctly, to do this on the "up & up", someone would need to do extensive research to determine if an independent part had already been manufactured as part of a kit. seems like the legwork might take as long as actually cranking out the actual part. thanks for the in-progress photos of the Fairmont. with all things considered, certainly doesn't sound like a business that turns a quick buck. makes one wonder how they can be sold so reasonably?
  12. some things can just "be"
  13. model railroading calls that "plausible". could it represent what you intend, of course. it's hobby and it should be fun. research and experience will pay off with the next, and the one after that, ad infinitum .... ps: rivet counters need not apply!
  14. I never understood how this works. do most guys who resincast make their initial part from raw materials? or are they modified kit parts, perhaps out of production, more detailed, or adjusted for a particular installation? and does that cross the legal line with the BIG Companies or are they just flying under the radar? I've seen some great parts, but also some I recognize the parental lineage.
  15. they're not dolls, they're scale action figures....
  16. if it's no service or product you need, I can do it for $100.
  17. the turkey chop suey at McDonald's franchise Harry owns was contaminated?
  18. three on the tree - learned how to drive that way.
  19. not to mention what they're doing to mcdougal's beef & chicken
  20. and everyone has a day when they don't do their job 100%. consequences are just different; that's why I'm not an air traffic controller!
  21. that's why I eat nothing from Mickie-D's
  22. yeah; can't never have too much chain!
