  1. Very nice looking Miata! I really like the color. My father-in-law owns a blue convertible with a manual transmission. Hasn't let me drive it yet!
  2. Sorry you feel that way as it's an interesting story about the Yugoslav Civil Wars.
  3. This is awesome!
  4. Nice looking Caravan. I owned one of these as well. 2006 Grand Caravan, I think. And while I liked the van a lot, 5 complete brake jobs in 60000 was a little much. I guess Dodge & New York winters just don't get along.
  5. Great looking '41. Very well done.
  6. Just saw this video over on Yarnhub on YouTube, and I thought some people over here might enjoy it: It's a pretty incredible story, plus it's got a cool looking Camaro!
  7. Great looking F-Series, Graham. Very well done.
  8. I'm just thinking that Coca-Cola probably wouldn't have spring for the fancy wheels & the redline tires; but that's an easy fix. I think.
  9. Well, this is an interesting development. Wonder if it'll have Coca-Cola markings? Ok, just kidding! ?
  10. Nice figures. I think it's kind of interesting that the guy in the blazer looks quite Japanese in one photo, and quite Caucasian in another photo. Different heads in the set? I like the scooter, too.
  11. I do like Coca-Cola, and I usually prefer it in bottles (glass or plastic, I'm not too picky). I'm not a big fan of those touch screen machines, and I've nicked named them "Fruit-Loop Machines" as I don't think anything tastes like it's supposed to as you get the flavor of what was dispensed before you. Oh, well. Nothing is perfect, I guess. I did go the the Coca-Cola store in Las Vegas the last time I was out there, and my family & I sampled some Coca-Cola products from around the world. Some of them were pretty good, others were like "how could anyone drink that!" Different strokes for different folks, I guess. As far as Coca-Cola marketing with AMT, the only Coca-Cola kit I have purchased is the AMT 1977 Ford Econoline Coca-Cola Van. Is it accurate? Probably not, but I liked it; and I am a Coke fan.
  12. Happy Canada Day from south of the 49th Parallel, eh!
  13. I have the AMT Lowboy trailer, but I haven't built it yet. I also have the AMT Flatbed trailer. I don't have a Fruehauf model number for the for the flatbed, but the Load King lowboy is a FB34D (I think), with a 75T capacity.
  14. Nice work on the engine. Your work area looks quite relaxing.
  15. No, Tamiya TS-69 Deck Brown is flat. The good new is if you hit it with a couple of coats of Tamiya TS-13 Clear it'll gloss right up. I like the planned change to the 3408.
  16. Well, that's one way to put it! ?
  17. Philippe, if I remember correctly, I glued angle stock along the upper & lower seams on the side walls to give the floor & roof something to mount to. I had no plans on opening the trailer up, so that really helped stiffen up the box. If you want another challenge, try the AMT tank trailer.
  18. No problem. It happens.
