  1. I need to get one of the cadillac kits.
  2. Moar pics!! I like it!
  3. Really nice work! Ive got one of these in my stash and I hope it comes out as well as this.
  4. Tower Hobbies will sell by the case.
  5. I've got one of these in my stash. Looks like it's a pretty nicely detailed kit. I've got some project plans for mine. I'll keep you guys posted.
  6. I like the color. Nice work~!
  7. Very nice! I'm normally not into rust, but this looks REALLY good.
  8. Why can I picture this thing doing a jump, and there's just a spray of parts flying behind it?
  9. Definitely glad to see younger modellers. That means the hobby is surviving. Good work so far. Keep it up!
  10. Mine's more of a passed away than got away. My first car was a 72 Buick Skylark Custom, 2 door hardtop. had a 350-2bbl, automatic slushbox, and a lot of rust. Transmission went out at one point on my way home from Votech, but dad and I replaced the TH350 with a TH400 out of a junkyard GS. Eventually after being battered and worn, it finally wouldn't go like it used to. The frame rusted through, and at one point we jacket it up for something and the passenger door wouldn't open. My parents bought me a 78 Plymouth Volare to replace it. The Buick sat for a while until our neighbor who did some dirt track racing offered me $100 for what was left of it. I actually got it to jumpstart and fire, drove it over to the guys house and parked. It never moved another inch under it's own power after that. The guy had to get one of his wreckers and tow it on up into his yard. The Volare ended up being a zombie that hated me, but that's another story for another time. I WILL have another Skylark one day.
  11. Nice score! Looks like it's complete too.
  12. Kitchen table, then later I worked at desk.
  13. I've got one of the 60 bonnevilles by Trumpeter. It's a nice kit. There's some weirdness in the engine, but once the kit is all together it comes out pretty nice. I'll post pics of mine as soon as I can. I do recommend the PE kit from Model Car Garage. The lettering on the kit is wrong.
  14. It's not necessarily a CNC. It's just a milling machine that operates manually.
  15. You might check here: http://www.smcars.net/forums/dodge/ There's multiple pages of blueprints for Dodge, the page selector is at the top of the page.
  16. Hobby Lobby seems to have a really good selection. Our local Meijer's store has an even better one.
  17. Arii 72 Mustang Mach 1. Yeah, I know the chassis is garbage, but the body looks better to me than the AMT kit. Someone needs to do a modern take on one of these.
  18. I like the idea of doing it up to the nines for judging.
  19. Very sharp, nice work! What are the rear tires from?
  20. IN-CRED-IBLE work. It looks Awesome.
  21. I think I get it now. With a rat rod, you can actually drive and enjoy without worrying about the value. They're generally not "trailer queens" at the shows that really don't ever get driven or even really move under their own power. The paint doesn't have to be perfect, they don't have to be shiny, but they're still rolling pieces of art.
  22. PC gamer. I do some MMO's, Need For Speed's and some RPG's. We have a PS2, but it's mostly for Guitar Hero and Singstar.
  23. One of my favorite places is quickly becoming Discount Drug Mart. They've got really good prices and a decent selection. They only carry Revell/Monogram, but still...
  24. Sorry to hear your loss. Been there myself. My wife and I got robbed a couple of months ago. It was our second time. They got more this time: 2 laptops, my Acer Aspire and her netbook 2 digital cameras, a GE and a Cannon Powershot a 30GB portable hard drive with backups of my music on it assorted jewelry including a 2ct. ruby ring my mom had given my wife. Insurance was amazing. We got a settlement for everything within 3 days. I'm much happier with the new laptop, but I'd a whole lot rather it had never happened either time.
  25. Ummmm Wow! Nice! I love it!
