  1. COME ON SPILL THE BEANS ALREADY! Your going to make us all "CRANK HEADS!"
  2. i would if i needed to strip chrome which reminds me! use a product called "wesleys bleche white" ... i think thats how its spelled! ... you can find it in any auto parts store i know advanced auto has it in stock here in town! and the great thing is once your done with it dont throw it away use ...get ready... mmmm "PANTYHOSE" you hold the hose over the bottle and use it as a filter to filter out the chrome and junk that you stripped off you parts and then you can reuse it over and over as many times as you like ... talk about recycleing! ... sure it might be 5 or so dollars a bottle but hey the stuff almost last several years i think before you have to start looking at replaceing it!
  3. Hey Doc! you could invite me to be the "future" banjo picker!
  4. so he could have the "multiple" car discount! :lol
  5. oh ok much like "star wars" where you see darth as darth then later they show the episodes of his transformation into dart! weird!!!
  6. MAN I LOVE THE SMELL OF DIESEL FUMES IN THE MORNING! mainly im a red oval bloodline! < tim you know what im talking about! MY favorite truck of all time (matter afact this is how i dream of mine looking like) lets see here anything yenko, sc/rambler, 68-72/4'sh novas,70 challenger ta/rt/hemi, 70/71 cuda aar/hemi etc... , 69 charger rt/hemi/general lee hot rods of all kinds whether rat or show. anything that has either historical significance! or is just plain "NEAT!" NASCAR NUT (Earnhardt all the way!) OH does ag equipment count!? John Deere 4020 with rops system and mainly any old John Deere tractor! hint:
  7. also i want to mentions something here im trying to think of his name but he had that really tricked out tuner in tokyo drift not the evo but the yellow and black one where they have to escape the evil half or something well that car gets wrecked with him in it and explodes but isnt that guy suppose to be dead but he comes back in number 4?????? ill think of his name eventually! oh that happens right before they take possesion of the mustang!
  8. that is a real nice kit to build just one word of caution actually more like a tip to make it easier for you! along the hood where you glue the scoop on you may just want to hit that with whatever color your going to use first cause once you glue the scope on there it gets or at least got for me a little difficult to get paint up under neath there so again just think of this but other than that it is probably one of the best kit ive ever seen! which reminds me i have to finsh the paintwork on mine and get the decals on and maybe throw a coat of clear on and ill be done with mine! also if you happen to like me loose the hoodscoop look in the 70 aar cuda kit cause it may have one there that is not used hint thats what i had to do!
  9. i know that hes at least second to the king richard petty! but the other driver you say is even better would that be cale yarbrough? PLEASE DONT TELL ME "JEFF GORDON"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
  10. wow when that first riff hit chills just went up my spine! i and im sure of most everyone that watched that final race remembers it like yesterday! it sounds like to me it might be a guy named "Tim Wilson"!
  11. sounds cool! i wonder how many $50 models we will se built now that brings up a question: is the united states dollar or is that pound dollar or what???????????? and what about the engine can we claim it was a junkyard rescue and swap engines in the desired kit or what? sorry to sound so bad but im just trying to make sure i understand it clearly! if we can come up with an engine swap and what not and it still meets the requirements than im going to build a 68-72 nova! and i already have a name for the project but i need to get one of those copo novas to do so!
  12. Hey guys just to let you know that this is not a "dead thread" i just havent gotten around to working on it much due to "general life" issues! ill get back on it soon though!
  13. i dont know off the top of my head but i think i paid 10-12 dollars for it but me i get a discount through a family member that works there! i do have the first coat of paint on it! when i get the paintwork finished up a little more i post some wip pics in this thread so you can consider this a wip thread! cheers ~ RADIOSTAR~
  14. actually i dont think it was done by toby keith it just doesnt sound like him at all in it! i may try to dig something up here after bit and see who actually does it! i have that same song from the same used to be site! got it from a friend that had it!
  15. like i need another project but this post^^^^^^^^^^^^^ i came up with a project for this cbp but.... 1 i dont have the kit or the parts for it 2 i have enough projects already!!!
  16. what about the other version of "The Ride" ?? i dont know who its sung by but it was done right after we lost one of the greatest drivers of the NASCAR Cup Series! and if you said "Dale Earnhardt Sr." well then you would be right on the money!
  17. mental notes: wet sand w/ 2000 grit and maybe a finer finishing grit and then scratch x about 3/4 x's! i am going to try this on one of my builds!
  18. Call it The- IHC 8100 Pumper Truck (little muskingum fire dept.)
  19. i may jump in here if its a no time line cbp! i plan "actually partially started" custom pumper truck using a pumper body from the alf pumper kit, if i can get the right parts! i will also use the louisville shorthauler chassies! the wheels will also come from the pumper kit the body is a resin griffen international harvestor 8100 series conversion kit (long oop from sts model trucks) and im hoping to get the parts needed such as mirrors and glass and etc from a 4300 amt kit! now i have to wait for the next time my stepmother comes up to bring me the resin conversion! i actually got some progress so far if i can find the pics in my photobucket!
  20. sorry for the extra post but it came up "you posted more pics than allowed" maybe someone can help me out with it hint im kinda newb here at this site! wheels
  21. hey guys! my brother came over yesterday holding the model kit i got him for christmas and told me he wants something bigger that what i got him. so you already looked at the title and thought... "whats more super big than the kit im going to be talking about" ... and we finally broke the kits seal and opened it and this is what it is. and if you guessed this kit than you where right!... and if not than... well i dont know about you! yes thats right its the super semi kit from mpc! the instructions front side!
  22. i used the mmtatrailers@hotmail.com!
  23. he must still be having problems i just tried to email him and it came back as a failure domain! so i went to the site and i couldnt click on the other late model engines and stuff to see what he had to offer! hellllllppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!
  24. im surprised that tim didnt jump in here yet! but i do remember that kurt put a c-series (i think it was a 15) in his 357 triaxle dump truck! i think that engine is long out of production last i heard and that was years ago! mmmmmmmmmmmmmm...............
