  1. No Lee, that is wrong. It was not written by Joan Baez, it was written by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter and Coven was not the first group nor last to record it either. White Rabbit, yes.
  2. Go Ask Alice - Jefferson Airplane
  3. One Tin Soldier made popular by Coven. Also know as the theme to Billy Jack. Written and originally done by The Original Caste.
  4. Much like the Camaro, the '69 Firebird is a car unto its own. To make a '69 from a 67/68 requires basically a whole new body. Wow Snake, you type fast.
  5. Hmmm, Maybe you're significantly older than I am?
  6. Thanks Ken. It has been very enjoyable to build. Just finished it about 15 minutes ago and will post photos tomorrow. Not bad for a little over a week of work time spread out over 14 days... Testament to the quality of the kit.
  7. Never saw/heard that before. And it's not like I'm a stranger to obscure music either.
  8. And their only real hit was Stuck in the Middle With You...
  9. Thanks Mike. Time to start putting the body panels on…
  10. Baker Street - Gerry Raferty - (City to City album...)
  11. Thanks Logan! Chassis pan is all assembled…
  12. Dash… And steering wheel… Installed into the car… As you can see, the brown carpet is barely even noticeable now.
  13. The chassis is going together. The fit is very nice and needs almost zero cement, but I am using a little just to make sure it lines up as well as possible.
  14. Nobody got the last one I put up. Anyone want to try for this one? Hey electricity don't pull the plug shut down on me I'm bringin' the new technology and it's crazy Everywhere machinery tools keep me company I talk to the scenery it talks back to me
  15. The front (and most of the rear) suspension are installed as well as the main bulk of the engine.
  16. Thanks guys! Engine & trans…
  17. You're right, it is. The Kids are Alright
  18. Brakes and the rear body section. I replaced the Ferrari lettering on the calipers with my own since they needed to be black to go with the yellow.
  19. Thanks for the info. I intend to put a coat of clear gloss on the cam cover black parts also to help seal on the Ferrari scripts, (they are not cemented together yet). I'm also not adding much C/F decal to it, probably just to the air box.. I see the real cars are predominantly glossy C/F. This build is a trial run to see how these kits go together so I can see what it all looks like (what can be seen and what can't when buttoned up), and if there are any areas that need special attention before I build an FXX. That one will get more C/F detailing.
  20. Thanks guys. Yeah I think I am in the final stretch too. But I still have no real idea when it will be finished. At least I'm not burned out on it.
  21. Thanks! I textured the cam covers before painting them red.
  22. Thanks, it's the Tamiya kit. I decided semi-gloss black would look better than chrome or silver for the wheels.
  23. All the lights have been installed into the rear fascia and the doors are done.
  24. Thanks. Micro Metal Foil Adhesive.
  25. I have an FXX Id like to build (in red) so I thought Id do a dry run with the standard Enzo kit first just to see how it goes together. There are no Grigio Medio Enzos (yet?). But I thought it would look good since the 458 and 430s Ive seen look nice. I used Ocean Gray as a facsimile. Ive already started painting and assembling the body. I used cigarette foil for the heat shield material. I know the interior should be carbon fiber from the factory, but I decided to carpet it with some old Testors tan that dries dead flat and coarse. To complement the tan I went with a Chamois color for the upholstery.
