  1. It has been kind of warm here, but we have been getting some tropical moisture today and a little cooling. Went for a walk after work, and I am still grateful to be able to walk 15 minutes and see this. Been in this house 31 years and have taken many walks to this area. It is always different, but always amazing.
  2. I know that I had some at one time, but I can't find them now. They were probably the first cans to blow out. I went through the stash yesterday and threw away another 16 bad cans of various colors of MM lacquer.
  3. Butt bunions included?
  4. Good eye. Looks like a Grand Caravan lamp on the left, a Town & Country on the right.
  5. sprinklers or sprinkles?
  6. Local band for me. https://www.cakemusic.com/
  7. Yippie, skippie, and a sweet bippie to bet.
  8. I took a straight-on photo of my neighbor's 1:1 plate, cropped it and printed it 1/2"x1/4". Added a PE frame and it looks pretty decent in 1/25.
  9. Babe was a pig that acted in two movies.
  10. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trkparms=folent%3Asixft4kid92c2|folenttp%3A1&_trksid=p3542580.m47492.l71970&_ssn=sixft4kid92c2 This eBay seller has a lot of different hood ornaments, mirrors, and taillamps. I have purchased from him (once) and was pleased with the quality. He offers one for your Eldo.
  11. I don't want to rekindle THAT discussion, but I would use Revell Chrom myself if I couldn't get a replacement tree. Round2 is still selling the kit, hopefully they can help you and you won't have to worry about long-term durability.
  12. See if Round 2 will replace the tree?
  13. One of these ugly-arse things. Makes a Cybertruck look well-styled.
  14. Ya, we got the single throttle body version like the M50-52. ROW got the inDUHvidual throttle bodies like a proper S50-52.
  15. I don't know where you live, but one thing to remember about "the same service" is that in event of throttling, the carrier is going to throttle "the other guys" before their own customers.
  16. This was an MPC "tip" from the 1970s when they started putting the Goodyear Polyglas tires with the exaggerated sidewall letters in the annual kits. 50 years later, I know why my attempts with non-shiny cardboard and Testors white enamel never turned out like I hoped, LOL.
  17. The Thermo-Lag, LOL. Agree that it is needed for the Demon and some of the other Mopars we have been seeing lately.
  18. I visited the HL that I go to the most yesterday. Their usual model aisle was nearly taken over by diecast cars. The 1/25 model cars were down to 9 at the very lower left, plus the AMT 1/16 '55 Chevy. They had another dozen or so 1/25 on a nearby "overflow" display. I had a Demon in my hand for a few minutes, but decided to put it back.
