  1. Awesome build.
  2. Fabulous build right here. The engine looks amazing with all the correct detailing you’ve done. I like how you made those ugly tail lights look right.
  3. BSI Gold works great for me, as I never had a problem with it fogging chrome, or windows. I also use Zap a Gap thin for anywhere I use a CA, except for chrome or windows, and their medium, for filling gaps, etc.
  4. You and me both. This is sooooo freaking cool. That truck looks amazing. Very nice set up with the Landy figure.
  5. Most excellent builds. You did both cars justice. From some pics I’ve seen, the Black Arrow also had two rear bumper guards as well. I wouldn’t worry about the front wheels, as many racers were constantly changing wheels, tires, etc. But I understand that you are going for the look the car had in its day. Very nice job on your builds,
  6. I purchased some Nylon Cord for Beading at Michael’s. I think it looks ok on my build.
  7. 1 pay off everything. 2 donate to actual worthy causes. 3 move away from the US. 4 buy a castle. 5 furnish said castle. 6 disappear forever.
  8. Great job on the rear tail lights. Looks way better. Those mopar headers are pretty universal. I’ve used them on many builds. They fit easily in many engine bays.
  9. IIRC, I built mine with the spindles as the instructions suggested. A little high, but a lot of these cars sat up a bit in the front.
  10. BTW, did you find a windshield for the Plymouth/Dodge? I looked, and I have a bunch of Moebius parts, EXCEPT what you are looking for.
  11. What do you mean it doesn’t look too good? You did a very nice job on the build. I think it looks great! Something to be proud of. Just remember, that every build is like practice for your next one.
  12. Very nicely done. Nice big block with a Dominator looks all business. The engine valve covers matches the car perfect.
  13. Fantastic work. The interior pieces look very realistic.
  14. Nice progress, Bill. Looks better slightly lower I think. One thing with these Moebius AWB kits, is, I wish they included two additional halves of the stick transmission version of the engines in the box. Since some were sticks and some autos that were raced. But I get it. The company wants to make money.
  15. Ahhh. I’m on an iPhone. Maybe the computer shows more. Thank you sir.
  16. Amazing work you put into this build. I love it.
  17. Those bodies are lookin real good. I built the white car a while back. Can’t wait to see more progress.
  18. I checked the website. I couldn’t find it on the MCW Finishes site. There is a Model Car World site also, but it deals with mostly 1:18 scale stuff.
  19. I have these decals as well and definitely want to do this build. Sadly, these decals now might be hard to come by as Bruce Sadewater passed away.
  20. MAD, is my “go to” distributor on my Ford and Mopar builds. I have some old Pro Tech distributors that were on a close out sale, that I’ll use on GM engines that are hidden by the air cleaner. They have all the wires coming out of the center of them, as compared to the MAD having them around the perimeter of the cap.
  21. Yes, tires aren’t cheap. Reminds me of the cars I see with rims and tires that were never designed to fit a vehicle, with a maximum amount of negative camber to get them under the fenders.
  22. In PA, we pay $40 plus dollars to check a $10 gas cap.
  23. I know a person that had bought a new truck, and the nice rims and tires that came on it, just weren’t good enough. Now, I understand, anyone can spend their money the way they choose, but don’t buy four rims and tires, and spend a few grand, and then go on FB and complain about gas prices! Some people are NEVER grateful for what they have. They want more more more, and then bitch and moan. I don’t personally know of anyone, that is “struggling” but man when they talk, you think they were very poor. Yet they buy new vehicles, go on several vacations a year, then bitch about the prices or the economy. Don’t make sense to me.
  24. Same thing for dark window tint. Seems the police lost control of enforcing the tint laws. One thing is for sure, almost every time someone is cutting someone off, or just driving like a moron, they seem to have the darkest tint on their vehicle. It’s like a mask, a bank robber would wear.
  25. Very cool build. Go buy a limited, new, car and go run some 9 second ETs.
