  1. minimum AND maximum
  2. I'll bet he likes REALLY NICE office furniture. Hope you get a huge commission on the sale.
  3. Yes, that is where I was going with that comment.......
  4. Let us know when you see issue #207 on the newsstand.
  5. Why? You two are obviously awesome dog parents. Don't think so much about how hard it is to say goodbye, think about how much you can do for a shelter dog or two. With the pandemic and now the fires, there have to be many amazing dogs available in shelters or to at least foster for a while and enrich their lives and yours. Nothing is forever, enjoy life while you can. Not scolding, just hoping that you think again about adopting a shelter dog. My amazing neighbors adopted a few shelter dogs over the years. The relationship was always too short, because these were always "damaged" older dogs that they were able to give a much better life to for at least a little while.
  6. Picked up the "old" 70 1/2 Z-28 RS kit at HL before they all disappear. Still want to make a load of cars for my AMY haulaway trailer, and it might be 1970 Chevrolets. Would be nice to have both bumper styles as part of the load. Also got a silver and gold set of gel pens to experiment with.
  7. I would expect this level of detail from you. I just recently saw that your '57 Chevy "cover model" isn't the 1/25th scale AMT kit. Simply amazing work!
  8. Which kit is that? The Boss 302 Eliminator? I have one of the 428CJ versions and the terrible Boss 429 street machine, which is the body in my pics. It appears to be the last version using the original issue XR-7 body and interior, so I snagged it. I hope to combine them and make a 428CJ XR-7, kind of a tribute build of the one my parents' friend owned in 1969. Oddly, the XR-7 kit's dash doesn't have the passenger side clock that it should have, but the 428CJ kit does. Interesting how many iterations this kit has seen since 1969.
  9. Agree with everything said here. Look at the 1:1 moldings and choose your styrene as close to the 1:1 shape and width as you can find. Testors used to make a two part vinyl top paint, but it hasn't been available for quite a while.
  10. That is what I thought, based on the brochure I was looking at yesterday. Thanks!
  11. Not Johnny, but you can order directly from Carney Plastics. They have a TON of different wall cases available in different scales.
  12. I would also take a high quality scan of the decals before you try to apply them. CHP or Trans-Am decals have gold, so you won't be able to accurately reproduce them on an inkjet printer, but if you have a high quality scan you can probably find someone to print a new set for you.
  13. So, this new kit has the same interior as the Z/28 Rally Sport kit, right? So it is a "Custom" interior with the woodgrain dash and console which is what the Rally Sport had as standard?
  14. Grandma had brothers
  15. Wanna see you foil a 1:43 . It's only a Torino, not like it's a '58 Buick or anything.
  16. I think that I may outsource the BMF on the window moldings and wheel lips to Hawley, Minnesota. Or use a Sharpie.
  17. LOL. Working on an old AMT 1:43 '69 Torino now for that very reason. It's a nice little kit, but I am going a little overboard on chassis paint details. Good luck!
  18. Ewwww, don't look
  19. The rollbar is leftover from the Shelby versions.
  20. shopping at Safeway (Happened recently at Lake Tahoe. They also like 7-Eleven)
  21. shooting Charmin commercial
