Let's see your geegaws!
Lunajammer replied to Lunajammer's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Okay, now this one has to be my favorite candidate for Most Obscure and unlikely 1/25 kit auto accessory. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall of the meeting where someone said, "...and lets tool up a cool fireplace." "That's good Roger, dam good." -
Risky choices but I think it all worked out. I'm trying to decide if BMF will help it. Maybe on select parts.
-
Nice of you to do that out of respect for your wife. I'm sure she's pleased with it because it turned out pretty nice.

Had a good trade with Againmikewins. Fast, reliable and fair. Good about keeping in touch throughout.

Man, that turned out neat. Smells like gasoline and age.

1.1 cars that got away

My dad was an architect. Bought it off the showroom floor, said he loved the lines of it. -
1.1 cars that got away
Lunajammer replied to l88 chevelle's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Probably the one that was identical to this one. It was our family wagon. I traded my dad an Olympus OM-10 camera for it in the 80's, they were worth about the same. It needed a lot of work and had to get rid of it, but I wish I'd stored it instead until I had a career. -
Yeah, a smart looking GP. I remember a young woman come through work with an immaculate teal version, which I've always liked. I told she had a beautiful car. By her squirming, I think she thought I was a weirdo

Chopped London black cab (new Pics 31/01/17))
Lunajammer replied to geetee66's topic in WIP: Model Cars
An inspired (inspiring?) build you've got going here. Certainly sets a dude's mind a-whirlin'. The kind of stuff I like to see on show tables. -
Yeah, I was sad to hear this, even though it's probably not that surprising since he'd been ill. He's been on my short list of favorite actors for years.

Information on Monogram's Exotics Series
Lunajammer replied to oldcarfan's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Wow, that should be published someplace where it can be archived. That's a very thorough story from an important source, complete with facts, figures, formulas and human interest. Mighty big-o'-ya to share that Gary. -
Whoa. Wasn't expecting that. That's the gangbusters kit eh? I'm not sure I've seen a built one. Sure looks fine. Well done.

I like all these answers. I'm here for all the reasons I'd belong to a an all day model club. Regarding opinions, I feel the opposite of "hiding behind a keyboard." I find myself being more careful about how I say things than I would face to face... and that's not an inconvenience. Being a cyber friend is not as fulfilling as face to face but it's still rewarding.

Good eye Matthijs. It's Revell's Jungle Jim 70 Camaro funny car dragster shortened to fit a Corvette ZR-1 chassis. I took advantage of the cut body to make it a flip front. Most parts, including the interior bucket drop in rather well. I added more character to the otherwise flat front end. The loose body came from my parts box. It was a glue bomb and the plastic is glue-warped on the rear deck. Not sure how I want to remedy that. Sadly, the photo was taken just a week ago, so this is as far as I got. Still hope to finish it. Jungle Jim Dragster photo credited to canneysgarage.

Hey, I like that interior. Pretty believable.

1941 Chevrolet AK
Lunajammer replied to Vbad's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
The cut out grill really made a difference looks great. I might not have weathered the interior the same amount as the exterior but that's a small point. I quite like the outdoor photos. Adds a level of realism to the truck. -

In a word...WOW. Excellent craftsmanship. I wish I had a set of those wheels. -

A class act Ken. Photos are luscious too. -
