  1. More then the ones watching the NBA
  2. Cliff, I dont think anyone is unhappy, I know I am not, I am looking forward to getting this kit, I hope it does not take long for it to hit the US sellers. I have a fujimi murcielago kits on the way.
  3. I will say it again, is NASCAR sposed to be forzen in time, when the cars weighed 4 tons, got 5mpg, ran on leaded fuel?, what do you want?, NASCAR is about racing stock cars, yes I know they are not stock cars anymore, but lets say that they were, and they looked like their counter parts, and had front wheel driver, would you still complain?. I am not trying to start an agrument here, but the old school NASCAR fans are very hard to please and do nothing but complain
  4. Slant, you took the words outa my mouth, It gets real old with so called NASCAR fans and the constant bashing , if you dont like it anymore , dont watch it. Its call progress, it happens with everything in life, including automobiles, so I am guessing NASCAR should go back in time?. I say its about darn time NASCAR is joining the 21st century and going to EFI. And the Toyota hate gets old to, more Toyota's are built in the US , then US cars are, its good for NASCAR to have them. I have been a NASCAR fan since the early 90s, and yes a lot of change has taken place, alot that I dont like, and a lot of it is brought on by the TV networks to "try and help get better ratings", but in the end NASCAR has gone away from what it was, but its slowy going to back. In 2013 the new era of COT hits the track, it wont look anything like the COT dose right now, the cars are going to more like the street car counter parts.
  5. Wow, you must be a NASCAR hater, NASCAR is still alive, could it be better, yes.
  6. Dave, I did the Revell kit, which is the same , and I agree, not very nice at all
  7. Here is the only mini I have, I do want to do a morris mini
  8. I think what Chris said is why, they really were not all that competitive during those years, Chevy became competitve sometime in the 80s when they came out with the monte carlo/ grand prix areo coupe's . Before that time, NASCAR was dominated by Ford, Dodge
  9. Chuck, thanks , I forgot about the GP, yes it was the 2+2
  10. What kind, there are a lot of different styles, are wanting open or encloesd style ?
  11. I dont know a lot about the darkside era, but GM, did have the areo coupe in the 80's , it was the Mote Carlo
  12. Highway, you are kind of back, nice looking truck you get drive
  13. That is really cool, going to make a nice photo booth as well
  14. I am going to give it a try. I have had my bottle for I would say close to year and its still clear.
  15. Thanks, I have not touch the body yet, thats straight from the paint booth, I am deciding if I want to clear coat it, or polish it
  16. Dale, I will PM you in a few days, thanks buddy I got to see plastickits (Dale's) build in person the other day, and wow, its looking cool
  17. It just depends on what part it is, some I leave on, some I take off, and it depends on where the attach points are as well. But I find when I paint the parts still on the spure's my fingers dont get painted
  18. Here is the body painted and the interior painted, I am using MM Dodge GTS pearl blue
  19. I am doing this for a contest build, my plans are making it somewhat of a sleeper looking , I am going to take parts from a Viper kit, I am going to try and fit the V10 in it. some ideas I have for the interior, I know I am going to use the center console from a new charger kit
  20. I have not used clear paint either , I guess I am missing out on something
  21. Its a perfect starting point to making a rock crawler like the pic above, getting some ideas now, but will wait tell the price's come down a little bit
  22. I would say if you are having fun then it really does not matter if you are over thinking it
  23. I have not used it yet to attached details to the body, how well does it work?
  24. Dave, that was meant as a joke
