  1. I was going to post a frame I built for a 53 stude but I was so blown away by all you guys and your amazing talent for scratch building. Awesome truly awesome. Btw to the O.P. I had a lot of fun reading this thread!
  2. No no no her son is asking me "when are you going to marry my mom?"
  3. Agreed harry watching those re-runs I'd give it to sam too
  4. Wait you guys can keep a secret right?
  5. Oh no ya it's not going to be a gift. I'm going down on one knee the whole bit. It's going to be well after so she doesn't see it coming! I know the answer is yes. Because she has been dropping suttle hints like "when are you going to get off your ___ and marry me. She even has her son asking to marry her.
  6. Body work. My uncle taught me at a young age and I loved it. Don't do as much as I like.
  7. She doesn't read this so it's safe here. The ring is already bought and soon under the tree so no she isn't pushing it
  8. I just won't have the time to build models much my life is making some changes. My girlfriend has bought a house and she has a honey do list as long as my arm. I'm looking at a ton of work and I'm thankful I paid attention to my pop's when I worked for his drywall business. I'll still pop in from time to time just to see what I'm missing.
  9. Here is my collection 68 coronet 1951 dodge 1963 chrysler and my car since high school 87 camaro All in different stages of restoration
  10. Yup I switched to b.b.s they make a modeler's life easier

  12. Man you got that look down perfect. Great job
  13. Yes the 50 chev has a folding seat.
  14. Dragon that's funny right there I tell you what!! I got to think that has to be from the 40's or 50's
  15. Thank you all you guys there is some great info here. Where can I find one of those foot controls?
  16. This past weekend I had to buy a dremmel for something I needed to fix in my house. Well after I was done with the project I remembered that a lot o of you guys use them for model projects. I had a few scraps laying around. I decided to learn The tool. I didn't have much luck I did succeed at melting plastic. I had the tool on it's lowest setting which claims it's 8000rpm. My question is what sort of bits do you'll use. Do you have any tips that will lesson my learning curve?
  17. I agree got to love MOPARS. glad to see back at it. Question though how much horsepower does the starship enterprise have?
  18. that armature wire looks like the way to go. $4 for 20 ft. the price is right that is for sure
  19. I just got done trading with doug beck (B.dougbeck). Nice guy a nd a pleasure to trade with
  20. I e-mailed revell a couple times for different reasons. Once my gf's son bought a snap tight star wars something or other. But revell missed putting a whole parts tree in the box. Another time I messed up a windshield. Both times revell responded with replacing the part free of charge. Only thing was the star wars parts took over a month to receive and the windshield took well over a month. Revell has good customer service but their response time is slow.
  21. I don't know a whole lot about funny cars. I know a lot of them used dual magnetos like this so if you were to run plug wires you'd have two wires per cylinder. On the hemis the plugs ran in a straight line. Next thing I suggest is braided hoses. FuelLines I know there is a lot of things you can do My biggest suggestion is to research research research
  22. I heard some guys use out I haven't tried it yet
  23. I like layers of cut making tape
