  1. Has anyone built Revell's Team Rahal's Shell Reynard CART car? I was thinking about getting one. Is it a decent kit? How about the AMT Indy Car kits? Are they any good? Thanks.
  2. Saw the Papa truck at the Hobby Lobby in DeWitt, NY, the other day.
  3. Thanks, Dan. I hope so, because it sure can't get any worse.
  4. I swear this car is cursed or something! As you see it, it's on its FOURTH complete paint job, and now I've had a decal failure! The "State Trooper" decal on the right front fender (not shown) slid down over the wheel well & that's where it dried. Un-freaking-believable! I contacted Round2 to see if I could get new decals for this kit. I didn't have much hope as I purchased this kit when Lindberg was owned by Stevens International and not Round2. On the bright side (if there is one), Round2 said that they would send me new decals. I think they felt sorry for me. More updated when (if) the decals arrive. Of course, they next update might just be a flaming box of crushed parts!
  5. Great looking Hayes.
  6. Very nice job on the gasser, Tom. I like it.
  7. I wouldn't exactly say "stalled out", but it has been more like "back burnered" for the holidays. I'm hoping to get more done after Christmas. The body needs a tremendous amount of clean up (mold seams, huge sprue attachment points, flash, etc.) All in all, if this ends up a "Three Footer", I'll be happy.
  8. Oh, I'll throw my hat in the ring (so to speak) with the AMT Chevrolet Bison. Will we be posting out WIP photos here, or should we start individual threads in the "On the Workbench: Big Rigs" section with a title like "2017 TAT - 1978 Chevrolet Bison"? Just a thought.
  9. This was posted up in the Cars Aftermarket/Resin Section, and I thought in "might" be I]of interest here: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/118783-125th-scale-futurliner/
  10. Nice looking Mack.
  11. Nice looking Chevy. I like the single stack & the rear spokes. Jim
  12. Looking nice, Tom. I like the color.
  13. Great looking Japanese Freightliner. Well, done.
  14. Looks nice, Kurt. I need to add a Brockway to my connection none of these days. Just seems like the right thing to do living in CNY.
  15. Thanks, Ian. I grew up down in Miami back in the 1970s & 80s, so I'd see FHP all the time, too. Just not these Chargers. The decals, except for the CALEA decals, came in the Lindberg kit. I got the CALEA decals from the Police Decal Shop. I think he has the FHP decals as well.
  16. That's one hairy horse. Maybe it's its winter coat. Nice job with the Bondo.
  17. So, managed to get some more work done on the FHP Charger. Still have a ways to go, though. Special thanks to Tom Billings (tbill) for painting the body for me.
  18. That's a real brute! Nice job.
  19. Very well done.
  20. Some really nice looking police cars. Your NY State Trooper collection is pretty cool.
