  2. What type of lightbar are you looking for?
  3. Breaking the locking piece in the electrical connector that plugs into one the coil packs on my car while doing a plug change
  4. Oh I agree, on both Checked one of my local wally worlds, they didnt have it, so I can do site to store or order it online
  5. I like the group that did a cover of Cotton Eyed Joe, the lead singer is a heck of a lot better looking then Rednex
  6. If you really want to see what Lambo factory looks like, watch the show called "Ultimate Factory's" on I think its the Nat Geo Channel, they rerun it every once in awhile,
  7. Or maybe MFH they didnt want to pay the new fee that Ferrari wanted for renewing the licensing agreement , even if sales are/where good, that would mean an increase in price to an already expensive product line. I heard that a few resin caster's did get a cease & desist over the products being made
  8. Oh wow, very cool, great job, are sure you didnt mistake photo's of real ones for the models pics
  9. Very nice
  10. I store all my rattle cans in my garage, I live in Phoenix, this summer, I think the hottest day was 118, so its safe to say that the inside of garage was well into the 100's , on the upside, the cans are ready to go when I am ready to paint
  11. Thanks, I just found out about it, and trying to find a local wally world that has it in stock lol
  12. Well it was more of a reboot, as Hal Needham was behind the "Bandit" series but I enjoyed them and just found out they are on a DVD, I had all four of them on a VHS tape Sorry to hijacked your thread, I did Bandits Stealth
  13. Ok, that is just odd, officially #4 isnt a part of the "Smokey And The Bandit" series, its just known as the Bandit , and the one with John Schneider is called "Bandit Bandit Bandit", and is number two in that series of four movies
  14. I will give you being half right, as to being sold here, it was after Fiat took over Chrysler , Dec 2010 is when production started on them for US sales
  15. Welcome to my life, a day late, and a whole lot of dollars short
  16. The future of 3D printing is here, like it or not, and its only to get better, or not, we dont know for fact, but betting against it would be bad idea, so get on broad, or get left behind, its your choice . You can make all the arguments about the cost you want, but guess what, there are people out there willing to pay to play, and just with everything else, the price will come down, you can set your watch to that, how much, again, we have to wait and see, so I dont get why people are still continuing to make excuses as to why 3D printing wont take off, I am pretty sure same the same things were said about the automobile, the airplane, and so on. I know this is a hard concept, but life is moving forward, technology is moving forward, dont be afraid of 3D printing, embrace it, which I see very little of that here, people act as 3D printing is the devil, I have seen stuff model related 3D printed on other forums and its amazingly how far its already come, I cant wait to see where 3D printing is this time next year, I think we are lot closer then we all think.
  17. There is a disc set of the four Bandit movies?
  18. Here Aoshima's Toyota 86 with a C1 resin transkit, the transkit is the Toyota Nur Spec body kit , the body kit was made for Tamiya's kit, so I took it as challanage to make it work on Aoshima's body, not the best idea I have had, paint is Scale Finishes Carbon Flash, Mr Hobby Super Clear, wheels are from the Toyota 86 wheel option kit, and the I used the intake from Hobby Design Wide body kit
  19. Finished this one awhile back, Tamiya kit, I used the engine from this another build , Tamiya Silver leaf, Testors one coat, its another dust collector , not very happy with it
  20. Let me start with the trailer, as there is not much to show, been going back over my numbers and making adjustments to the floor length, I was way off of being scale 53 feet, so I am now closer to I think 50 scale feet I think, anyways, the sides have been cut, and are one piece On to the truck, body is almost ready for paint, been working on the panel lines and the interior is almost done, front seats, dash installed, waiting for the bed to dry and I can button it all up and wheels/tires on, fuel tanks installed as well
  21. The cars started production in 2007, so its been almost seven years. Tom, I am not sure if you are aware, but there are fit issues's with this kit, alot has to do with the rear window piece, I lot of trimming is going to be needed
  22. In 1962 I was still 18 years away from even being thought of
