  1. That is a fun little project! I have a stock resin body, I believe mine was from R&R
  2. Meanwhile in Cincinnati..
  3. Since we are off in other directions.. I did this burlap seat cover interior. I saw it on 1:1 scale rat rods. Mine is nothing more than Taco Bell napkins and white glue
  4. Wow! That's a classic old phone booth... I can almost smell pee! So Jeff, buy that and copy it. Then resell it. Problem solved!
  5. Heck, he shouldn't have taken the truck out with bad brakes! Glad she's okay, and hopefully the Charger will be soon!
  6. That Champ is very nice! Those puppies rusted like crazy. I had a '63 Lark that was so rusty I still shiver to think about it!
  7. Truck looks very nice! Cart could use a dab of flat black on the end of each exhaust!
  8. Bigger and Better! Watch our news at 11! We will have more snow than the other stations!
  9. What Greg said.. But note that your middle photo seems to show the bumper edge isn’t flat, it curls around the edge
  10. The trailer that comes in the kit.. I have a few of these too.. Lotsa mods here.. moved axle back so it isn’t rear heavy, added fenders and lights, better wheels and tires. Also created hollow beam axle to hide the wire one! Big issue is that the whole idea of a hitch is backwards.. a peg on the tongue instead of a receiver and a hole in the hitch provided! Had to totally redo that!
  11. Ha! Now I see the white spatters.. I thought it was metal flake! May be able to polish it all out. Decals look ok, but if you damage polishing and need a set, let me know, I have extras
  12. Thanks! This is becoming a project! I’m building mine curbside since the HUG hood was molded in. Still will assemble lower end of engine but just what can be seen from bottom. I will watch the rear wheel wells Funny aside.. AMT put the Hemi in the kit. The real car has a bone stock 273, the hood was never opened in movie. That F500 looks great! Someone did a nice job on the paint!
  13. Ha! I spent time today on that very same issue! I thought it was because of my slice and dice, but I tried it with a spare kit with same results.. sanded a bunch on both interior bottom and top of chassis. Still not happy with the fit. It may wind up with a Duster chassis. I still have no idea about color. It may get that Signet two tone with silver on lower edges. My 1:1 had that
