  1. Also... I finally nabbed the Japanese Supra MKiii kit with the fully detailed engine bay (which comes with the factory 7M engine in it), and picked up the resin 2JZ-GTE engine from model-meister... Now all I need is Mitsubishi Starion wheels (or a close approximation thereof...) and I've got my car in model form!!! Apologies for thread-hyjack... carry on with your awesome Corolla dragster work!!!!! :D
  2. Nah... my plate is a dead-giveaway. But I get lots of people asking me to pull over so they can see it. Thinking about changing that and going into "sleeper mode"...
  3. Richmond! Southside area. I'm part of a model club in our area called Sticky Fingers, although I'm still rebuilding my work area. Hit me up in PM and I'll get you the contact info!
  4. Mirroring my real life 1:1 car....
  5. Nice work dude, reminds me that I need to start working on my MKiii Supra with 2JZ-GTE single turbo swap kit! Awesome stuff!!
  6. Another kit I'm going to have to get. Wowzers...
  7. Well I know the AAR hood is a little too wide than the engine bay, but it is the right length. That's as far as I've gotten.
  8. I really, REALLY wish someone would reissue a Javelin kit.
  9. Can't miss the Eye of the Crimson King. Drink Nozz-A-La!
  10. Added. My wife is going to CRUCIFY me...
  11. This would be a perfect addition to my Stephen King bookshelf. I have every hardback edition of his books and my favorites are "The Stand", "Christine", and "The Dark Tower" series. Your diorama is MASTERFUL!!!
  12. I've been working my tail off at Cap One. I'm going to try and make it next week!
  13. I know I saw one of these at some point. Who makes it and where can I get one? (I was thinking Jimmy Flintstone) I want to make one BAD.
  14. Aztek. Hot pink. Someone actually painted one in that color. Yuck.
  15. My cap for a single model is $100, never more than that. But add-ons can cause that number to trickle up pretty quickly, like resin parts, aftermarket decals, special paints, MCG metal emblems, BMF, different wheels/tires, a dedicated spare parts kit (on rare occasion...), etc....
  16. Sorry for the cellphone pix... If this looks like a lot of stealth fighter pieces instead of a car model, you wouldn't be too far from the truth. This is a difficulty 3 build kit which is highly detailed, with multiple panels and parts. The interesting thing though is it comes with no decals, so painting the cockpit intricately becomes a must. Should be a nice challenge!
  17. 1969 -- Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 and Dodge Charger Love them both.
  18. The Tumbler.... Will take pix of the kit soon!!!
  19. 1970 Barracuda. The want is strong with this one. EDIT: Can't forget the Dodge Demom either!
  20. Round 2 '69 Dodge Charger Daytona. Nothing else left to say.
  21. Frog called him "Bo" at one point in the movie, but his actual name is Bo "Bandit" Darville in the screenplay copy I have. I'll get pix of the tread pattern when I can get my camera charged back up.
  22. Yes, it appears to be a whole new tooling.
