  1. Wow, you're just cranking these Transtars out. Looks nice.
  2. You can always try here: Plateshack.com Site Map They're not decals, but you can download them, resize them to the appropriate scale, then print them out.
  3. I didn't even know Harbor Freight carried hobby air brushes. I've been looking at an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS for a starter air brush, but I haven't pulled the trigger yet.
  4. Very nice looking K100. Well done.
  5. Very nice looking F-150. Very well done.
  6. Very nice looking General, Jason. Well done.
  7. I tell people who are "so proud" that they own an electric car that their car runs on coal. They don't seem to like that fact! ?
  8. Looks like I better get mine soon. I don't want to pay extra for decals I'm just going to toss.
  9. Angel, yes, I cut the frame down be 48mm (1-7/8"). Thanks for the complement. Instructions actually call for the cab & frame to be painted black, but I like the blue better. Thanks, Bill. Thanks, Chris. Thanks, Jason.
  10. Thanks, guys. I appreciate the comments.
  11. Very nice car. Well done. What scale is this?
  12. I've had this kit kicking around for a decade or so: And in in an effort to further stall my BRBO 1976 Chevrolet Bison, in April I decided to start it. The goal was to make a nice looking tractor using everything from the original kit, and I think I succeeded. The kit is box-stock except that I shortened the frame 48mm to a 180" wheelbase. The Kenworth badges below the doors, on the quarter fenders, and on the seat back are JBOT decals I had kicking around, and the badge on the grill is from the Revell of Germany Kenworth W900. The color is Rust-oleum Navy Blue, and the interior color is Dupli-Color Buckskin. The decals are from the original 1992 kit. Interior: Frame with engine (easier to see without the cab): I did have an issue with some missing parts from the Detroit Diesel 8V92T, and was helped out by a Forum member, and the valve covers are from Double Take Replicas. Exterior:
  13. Oddly, the Confederate flag might not be "on" the box, but it is "in" the box.
  14. Great looking Schwalbe. I've always like this aircraft, and A Higher Call is on my "to read" list. (It's a long list.)
  15. That's absolutely awesome!
  16. Some really nice looking Corvettes, and I like the 1957 Bel-Air in the background, too.

    1958 Ford

    Nice looking Ford. Well done. Don't think I've ever seen one of these before.
  18. I like you Charger. The Slant-6 is an interesting engine swap. I have this MPC kit: Is this the same Charger in the box?
  19. That's a pretty cool looking brushbreaker. Future project for you, maybe?
  20. I don't know about weeks, but I've used decal solvent a couple of days after I applied decals with no ill effects that I could see.
