  1. Actually, they've got a lot of useful tools there. Take a look. I still need to go there and get a speed controller for my Dremel.
  2. Looks great!
  3. I really like the Model A with the Wills-St. Clair headlights, and the white '32 roadster.
  4. I think you'd be okay. I use both the Testors lacquers and Duplicolor, and use the Duplicolor clear over both with no issues.
  5. And odd shapes for things that are pretty standard. Still don't know what they patterned the engine for the Monte Carlo after, but it sure wasn't a small block Chevy.
  6. Finally got my lot of BMW stuff last night. Got in a parts kit to complete the BMW 635CSi I'm working on now, plus I got an ROG BMW 507, Heller BMW 328 and Revell BMW Z1. All 3 are pretty nifty, they just need a little repair.
  7. I've been trying this on the BMW 635CSi that I'm working on right now. Some of the chrome pieces needed a touch up after sanding off the attachment points, so I polished the black plastic out and just brushed the AllClad on. Can't see the repairs now. I've also done one piece with primer/gloss black, and it's CHROME. Works really well brushed on.
  8. Gel pens work really well for this. White acrylic paint would be my other suggestion.
  9. Nice! Looks like there's some fun ones in there. What's the BearGuy?
  10. Outstanding paint. Fantastic job.
  11. Very nice looking Stealth. Don't see those very often.
  12. Check Time Machine Resin. They have a flat hood for the Charger: http://www.timemachineresin.bravehost.com/moparhoods.html
  13. Okay, never seen that one before. Might look into it. Thanks for the information.
  14. Wow! Okay, yeah, that makes more sense. It looks more like a jet engine than the Chrysler version did. Neat!
  15. If I may make a suggestion, the works look more like a rotary engine than a turbine. Isn't that a crankshaft with the triangular rotors in the bottom left corner?
  16. Has anyone noticed on the ROG site, they're showing a 1/16 Rolls Royce Phantom II Continental? Any information on this kit? It looks nice: http://www.revell.de/en/products/model-building/cars/young-oldtimer/id/07459.html
  17. I see what you mean. Just under the quarter window is a piece of molding that isn't on the real car.
  18. Actually, I messaged my brother yesterday to see if he could send me pics of it. As soon as I get them, I'll post.
  19. I'm downgrading my '68 Road Runner to a 383.
  20. Growing up, we had a bit of everything. My parents were both driving GM's when I was born, but the earliest cars I remember were a Volkswagen Bus and our 1973 Dodge Charger. Later on, we had other cars: 1978 Ford LTD Wagon, 1981 Plymouth Horizon, 1985 Chevy Nova and Monte Carlo, etc. My brother's first two cars were Chargers, the old family '73 and he later bought a '71, and he drove Pontiacs, had a Mercury Cougar among others. Even my own car collection has been all over the place. I don't really have a specific brand I prefer. Just anything with four wheels that goes.
  21. Did a conversion of the '71 R/T to a base model for my brother. It came out really nice. The worst part was the hood. I carved out the big hood scoop area and made it flat with the peak down the center. The dash was a fun conversion with the linear speedo and gauges. Need to find pictures....
  22. Very Nice!! I really wish they would re-pop the Jo-Han kits. Yeah, I know, the molds are all gone now...
