Well Chuck. preserverance paid off i got in. Couldn't leave Harry there to drink alone!!!

Wow Nige, That rascals commin out NICE! I think a satin black roof would go nice on it! Or maybe just do that sculpture line around the body,and the "Vee" on the front in a nice contrasting color might look good too.

HOW'D ya do it??? I typed my lil nontypein fingers to da bone Daddy-O an I COULDN'T get in! I gotta feelin you'll be alone for quite a while!!!

Sorry Bro, Tried 5 times the first time, 10 times the second! no go. Good luck with it!

Chuck, I'm tryin but it won't let me in, can you fix it???

I gotta agree, that is a GREAT color for it! It makes me wonder if the sheer size of them things don't scare people off! i have quite a few of them, an I DON'T have enough room to build and display them! Which is a shame, cause the ARE nice! Hope you got alot of room for that rascal, cause it'll be a NICE lookin model to display when it's done!

Harry, you KNOW i like it! It's the ONLY creature of it's kind ya know! And I never woulda found my posse without it! You got you a passle 'o good ol doggies jus waitin EVERY Monday ta be fed! PULEEZE don't ever stop or we'll ALL be starvin!!!

Oh those are cool Pat, THANKS alot!

Ronster, you got it Bro! I'm SURE he'd appericiate it! You can actually reach him yourself if you want.I'll PM you his E-Mail addy!

I guess that comes under the"Need to know" rule. If ya don't need ta know ya don't!!!

Now THAT is a slick trick!!! I likeses it!!!

I TOTALLY agree! Pat is a GREAT all around guy, and I KNOW he'll be both a benefit AND a boon to this forum. I hope no-one tries to test him, because it won't be a fight on his part. He'll do what he has to, so lets all just give him all the help we can! Thanks Gregg and Harry, you could NOT have made a finer choice!!!

Since the change I haven't been able to fix my posts. But what he needs are 25th scale B.F.Goodrich Radial T/A tire DECALS!!! Casey, Yeah, your right, caz it LOOKED like he MIGHTAVE put them on NOT centered on the tire, but they DO look like the Decal/Tires Tommy posted on his Nova. Hopefully we can help him out.

Nick I don't know if he shaved them off,or he had a set with smooth sidewalls, BUT the ones he showed in the pics were smooth with the decals on them.

Chuck, they came from Scale Equip. Ltd. and they ARE B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A's. He did send me a pic of them. Dave, that would be cool if you knew someone who made those decals. I don't think he'd mind if you PM'd him. Thanks guys.

Guy's just gotta E-Mail from our forum brother Juergen, over in Austria. He says he ordered some B.F.Goodrich Radial T/A's from Scale Equipment LTD. and he feels their too large for his tires. Does anyone here know IF there's a Co, that sells Decals that fit 25th scale tires? IS there a difference in the sizes that would make a VISUAL difference? Or do MOST decal co.s make a "generic" size decal for BOTH scales? I'd really like to help him out, but I DON'T have an answer for him. Can YOU guy's come up with an answer for him? It would be a BIG help for him, and I'd kinda like to know myself. Thanks Guys!

Mike, R&R's are molded as ONE WHOLE unit! These look like individual peices to be assembled, with seperate tailite lenses and back up lite lense,AND bezels! These are just TOOOO nice not to get!!!!

Thanks for postin this site! I've always wondered about this kinda stuff. it looks to be pretty reasonable too, to be honest with you. I'll really hafta try some of his stuff!

I liked the bit, but a 1.5 million bucks, I could picked a better lookin car!

Geeze O Petes!!! SOMEONE ACTUALLY built one??? Yeesh, guess there's no accountin fer taste! Even if it IS bad!!!

LoLo, NOW I KNOW yer NUTS!!! Yeah, I can SEE the " Months later" in it! Looks COOL!

Duhhhh, Dan, I found the other thread. Thanks!

Dan, is this the only thread you got on this build? i could swore I seen it before. Anyway, WHERE did you get those BEAUTIFUL Packard Tailites??? Yours seem to have actual Bezels, the ones I got from R&R resins were comlpete in ONE peice. I like yours MUCH better.

Yeah, LAWSUIT CITY!!!! AND they WON'T let the owners it to cover them? Yeesh, they'll be lucky if they even EXIST after THIS! Yeah Pat, i agree, STUPID!!!

Preiser stuff IS NICE, But I din't see ANYTHING that was LESS than 25 bucks! these little horsies at Micheal's aren't more than 2 or 3 bucks. But they look just as good.
