  1. Beautiful job! Red Bear Graphics offers the wood grain decals for this model. http://www.bdparrish.com/70fordwagon.html?1319260454843 -MJS
  2. http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2014/07/09/gmp-diecast-models-staging-a-comeback/?refer=news -MJS
  3. No, but the guy in the lime green outfit was voiced by Casey Kasem, who also did Shaggy in Scooby Doo. -MJS
  4. Sure, but to the buyer of this car, 50 million+ dollars would hardly be a noticeable dent in his bottom line. The only question would be which collection to keep it in, the American collection, the European collection, or at the cottage on the Isle of Man. -MJS
  5. A couple of the cars are not restorable, even by GM: So if they display this next to the glass covered sink hole, that could be a pretty decent attraction. -MJS
  6. The car looks new Tomo, you are a motivated young man with uncommon focus. You did that whole job out doors, in the weather, under rain and sun, and on a surface that doubtless fought the floor jack every time. And to top it off, the car is cool, tasteful, and was worth the effort. Drive it with pride, you've earned it. -MJS
  7. Just got this in my inbox this morning... We'll have to see where it goes. -MJS
  8. Trashing old Mopar Muscle never goes out of style. -MJS
  9. That's an elegant looking car, and one that seems to be overlooked in the market. -MJS
  10. Excellent quality build, and the stance/wheels/tires are about perfect. -MJS
  11. Beautiful work, I can't find a single contour out of place. The nicest '70s Elco conversion I've yet seen. -MJS
  12. Nah, just model building season. -MJS
  13. We just need to see Revell's late model Super Duty kit to compare it to. -MJS
  14. Yeah, I was worried about that! -MJS
  15. The new Ford steering system is a variable ratio setup that improves driving feel, it doesn't take away any driver control. And Euro-lux car makers already have it. I recently heard that the gummint is working with cell phone manufacturers and providers to be able to turn on your microphone and listen to your private conversations in a room, whether your phone is on or off. Might be true, not worth getting all worked up over something you can't control. A few days ago, I passed a horrific accident that I later learned killed three people. So as for autonomous cars, if they keep the distracted/drunk/stoned/red light running drivers from smashing into and killing people, then praise be Google, et all. -MJS
  16. Thanks Brett, I had no idea. Gonna have to pick up one of those. -MJS
  17. That's crazy nice. I'd love to know where you got that 5.0 "toilet seat" upper engine cover. A friend of mine has a red 2012 GT, and myself and another friend just installed a shaker hood scoop kit on it. It looks great, but the 5.0 runs so smooth, it doesn't shake. Nothing like cutting a big hole in a new aluminum hood with a jig saw. -MJS
  18. Wow, scratch building a body is one thing, but to get it so correct and crisply detailed is on a whole other level. Impressive barely covers it. -MJS
  19. I've met both of the owners of the two on the cover of the latest HCC. And both of the cars are as nice as they look. What a cool division Edsel could have been if it wasn't torpedoed by McNamara and the Whiz Kids, buncha jerks. -MJS
  20. I think that A/C system might take a charge... -MJS
  21. WOW! You need to send some pics of that to Freiburger stat! -MJS
  22. Excellent! Unusual color for a service truck too. -MJS
