  1. K-Dog Why Why Why dintcha make it 25th scale???? I'da bought a ton of 'em!!!! 24th is cool, BUT I'ma 25th kinda guy! How would I go about REDUCEING it to 25th? Oh I WANT ONE SOOOOO BAD! But the 25th scale gods would TRUELY condem me!!!! Oh, I DO have your Scamp, and I MUST SAY you do GREAT WORK!!!
  2. WOW!!!! Is THAT ever smooth!!! I LOVE the lines,an Mods ya made to it!!! That rascal BETTER be in tha runnin for What ever it's entered in!!! Just BEAUTIFUL!!!
  3. WOW!!! Not quite my speed, but it SURE IS NICE!!! If I WAS into F1 raceing, THIS would be the one ta get! BEAUTIFULY BUILT model!!!
  4. Nige, ya REALLY gotta lay off the Guiness! I THINK it's makein ya think EVEN CRAZIER than usual!!! Maybe a nice cool Miller Ice would calm ya down! But then again, mebbe if ya did that, we wouldn't see these GREAT off the wall builds ya come up with! I've seen a brike like this, but it still ran off'n the V.Dub engine inna back. I gotta feelin the quiet backroads around Belfast WON'T be so quiet once THIS bad boy gets fired up!!!
  5. No problem Bob, makes sense ta me, NOW why ISN'T it gettin thru to EVERYBODY??? Yeesh, If I can understand ya......
  6. Check out"Scale Models by Chris" He's gotta TON of stuff for superdetailing offices! Even johns!!!
  7. Harry's right on the trans kit reply, it can also be just a body that you buy to build a model you want. Like Jimmy Flintstones 70 El Camino. No such animal, BUT if ya get his body, an an AMT 70 Chevelle, you CAN have one. Transkits are cool, caz you can get you a NICE model of a car the model co.s have never popped! You CAN also get a Funeral Hearse or Ambulance from Jimmy, just in case ya wanna build onea them too!
  8. I REALLY don't understand what the fuss is about. Harry held a vote, an the majority spoke. NO OFF TOPIC DISCUSIONS! I DIDN'T start it It just happened. NOW if it's posted NO RELIGIOUS OR POLITICAL discusions, like I said, THAT'S OK by me too! When Marshall posted his Bonnie an Clyde thread, I jokeingly stated that fact, AND also it was a GOOD idea for a Diorama. To ME that WAS in the same vein as a MODEL RELATED subject. So.... If Theres to be NO Pol/Relg discusion JUST SAY SO!!!!! I DON'T think our members are that stupid as to NOT understand WHAT THAT MEANS!!!! DON'T BRING THOSE SUBJECTS UP an it shouldn't rile NOBODIES feathers! Some guys just seem ta wanna start stuff, I just made a joke of it, BUT I ALSO mentioned it WAS model related, So that it COULD be brought up. I don't care WHAT is banned, I ain't goin nowhere, I LOVE this place I've said it before, an it's true. If there's folks who get all worked up cazza someones Political or Religious beliefs, QUIT beein such a wussey an realise that EVERYBODY thinks DIFFERENTLY about stuff! NOBODIES RIGHT OR WRONG! Butch up an just let those that DON'T agree with what someone may believe, feel anyway they WANT TOO! It DON'T hurt me if Folks don't wanna talk about God, or if those same folks are perturbed caz I voted for Obama, WHO CARES!!! Yeesh guys, this place is SUPPOSED to be for our enjoyment! If guys get enjoyment outta startin krap, then yeah, I think they should be dumped, jus like the guy who came on here a started rakein over some guys builds an din't even build stuff himself, or the Plastic surgery guy. NEITHER of those clowns had a reason ta be here, an they WERE dumped! GREAT MOVE as far as I'm concerened. If ya can't say nothin nice, the just keep quiet, if it don't have nuthin to do with our hobby, same feelings! I think Harry an Gregg do a GREAT job in runnuing this place, I'M HAPPY, if others get bent outta shape over some stuff,that's THEIR problem, NOT MINE! I think ol Rodney King said it best, "Why Can't We ALL JUST GET ALONG!!!!" (before he was clobbered by the cops, an won a million dollar lawsuit! )
  9. WOW, Harry, where'd ya find this THING??? It's SOOOOO ugly it's GOTTTA be REAL!!! (or it was built by a dyslexic modeler. Oh, this can go here cas it fits!) I think it's REAL!!!!
  10. Oh how well you know me,my Brother!!! Yep Therese DON'T hafta work taday(THAT"S GREAT) so yeah, I got ta sleep in!!! Welp, if da gangs all here, les start tossin stones at Harry's window! NOT TO LARGE though, caz I DON'T wanna pay for a new window!!! But here in Deeetroit ,we jus SHOOT at the window, caz the bang'll wake 'im up, an da bullet leaves just a SMALL hole.Les o'course yer usein a MAGNUM! But it think that's KINDA overkill,when all we wantsta do is wake him! Soooo, Harry, UP ANATTEM!!! WAZ it gonna be??? HIT US BROTHER!!! HIT US!!!!!
  11. Hey, Ithought it was cool, BUT there WAS a vote, an the MAJORITY said NO OFF TOPIC stuff. Sooo, bein the good Forum member that I TRY to be, I just mentioned it. NOW if were NOT allowed to talk about Religion OR politics, THAT'S cool by me too! I voted I DIDN'T care one way or tother, BUT some folks were SOOOO offended a vote was taken, an NO OFF TOPIC stuff was NOT PERMITTED! Personally I think the Bonnie an Clyde stuff was cool, AND I did mention on how it'da made for a cool diorama, BUT those who voted NO off topic stuff got there way, I jus reminded us'all. If it's gonna be NO RELIGION or POLITICS, then that's OK by me too, BUT the winners GOT what they wanted,which WAS No off topic stuff. Now folks is whinenin! Poor Harry, ya must REALY be goin nuts!!! Go figger???!!!
  12. Ahhhh Greg, Gool OLDE Millwaukeee!!! Now that was a beer!!! I 'member MANY times leanin overt tha ol porclin throne, givin back wat I waz givin!!!! Tanks fer da memries! (or NOT)
  13. OK NOW it makes sum kinda senses! lil ol Gunthy 's lookin like a MESS wit all 'em politico's warpin 'is poor lil noggin! Yeeesh I hopeses he don't drive right ta the wite house an try ta get in!!! Well, now that I thinks of it, wats ONE MORE clown livin there gonna do???BUT I thinks Tony hit it rite inna hed,Ya's seein da worl thru ROSE COLORED GLASSESS!!!!! (or izat jus BLOODSHOT eyes!?!?) The Gunthman's comin 'long purty good, mebbe I'll vote fer HIMS the next elecshun!!!!
  14. Marshal, NOT TRYIN ta be rude, but what's this got ta do with model cars??? Maby for a Dio or sumpthin, bit I THOUGHT we weren't gonna have UNRELATED stuff on the forum anymore? At least that's what was agreed on.
  15. Guys, NOTHING personal meant to the gentleman who puts his heart into his baby, BUT it IS a niche magazine. For those who are into it's subject matter, I DO BELEIVE it IS a Godsend. I LOVE Muscle Cars and I get my satisfaction from the 2 mags I subscribe to, But for the guys who DO get into rod an customs I'm SURE this magazine is WORTH MORE to them than me. I LIKE rods an customs mind you, but to the guys who LOVE them, THIS mag is probly the Kat's Pajamas!!! I won't be jumpin on the wagon just yet, BUT I can understand WHY you guys are excited, It's EXACTLY how I felt ALLLL those years ago when I discovered SAE in the book store! FINALLY I thought a MODEL CAR magazine FOR ME!!!! I REALLY DO understand the excitement! Sorry if I came off rather UNinterested, But as you all know, as I have said before, I LOVE MUSCLE CARS! They're what I grew up with an what I know BEST about. I LOVE a nice Hot Rod, That's why I LIKE ALL of Lyle's builds, HE'S got THAT line DOWN! When I actually get to see one, I may change my mind, but money IS tight, an I do gotta be picky on what I spend it on. That's one reason I subscribe, it's ALOT less that individual issues, and if the gentleman who does publish it gets enough subscribers, hopefully, the price'll come down a bit, and then I can take one out for a test spin. I AM HAPPY for you guys, as I KNOW THE FEELING of findin a treasure like that! Been with Both my mags for LOOOOOONG time and even though I got my favorite,I DO love/enjoy them both! Congratulations on finally gettin a mag that's EXCLUSIVELY for you guys!
  16. WOW ANOTHER hit outta da park!!!! Looks GREAT, came out great too! Guys like you an Ed jus freak me out! That's a WHOLE Lotta talent in BOTH you guys! I REALLY like this one! (the lights jus make it POP!!!)
  17. TEN BUCKS AN ISSUE?????? Man you BETTER LOVE ol hot rods an customs for THAT price!!!! No thanks, I'll stick with what I know and LOVE! I'll wait till he DOES get some advertisers to help bring it down to a more realistic price!
  18. Sorrie my fren, bot HI am thee MOS INERESTING MON EEN DE WOORL!!!! Than ju berri mosh!!!
  19. I've only been a member for a year,this month, but I beleive it's been around for about 20 years. Anyone of our clubmembers know for sure? Pat Redmon, do YOU know? Our club is the Downriver Model Car Club.
  20. Guys I saw this kit last nite, up close an personal and it's NICE!!!!!! Looks JUST like plastic, an it's popped from the old MPC annual kit, so it's PERFECTLY proportioned,and looks GREAT! Other that the recent re-pop of the Firefighter kit, you CAN'T find a stock version of this year Mustang. Just use the interior/chassis of the Firefighter kit, an you'll have a REAL nice kit of a stock Mustang! Probly for a LOT less that TRYIN ta find one! I liked it, you will too!!!
  21. I remember years ago,when someone claiming to be Art Anderson,told me he hadta quit makin the GMC grilles and tailgates for AMT's Chevy pick-up, cas GM laywers told him he hadta cease an desist usein their trademark without their permission! How can Perry's get away with it, UNLESS he paid them the BIG bucks????
  22. I myself think it's GREAT that folks OTHER than us now know about Model Cars Magazine, AND Gregg! Like Pete said, We CAN use all the exposure we can get! Ya notice the reporter DIDN'T call that haughty actin guy from that OTHER mag!!! GOOD call Mr.Reporter!!!
  23. Pat, it WAS a GREAT meetin, wasn't it? BUT, I'm not sure they's a hole lotta folks can handle MY MUG this early inna mornin! Course MEBBE a coupla cups a "Chock Full 'o Nuts" MIGHT help SOME guys deal with it!!! OH, an guys, that's my lil 65 Comet next ta my pic, SEE I DO BUILD SOME stuff!
  24. WOW Jon, Is that BAD BOY ever SMOOOOTH!!!!! REAL NICE BUILD, You really should enter it in SOMETHIN!!! That rascal is jus SCREAMIN MEAN lookin!!! Yep, you dun it right PROUD!!!GREAT BUILD!!!!
  25. Duhhhh I don't quite 'member the thread, but it SURE LOOKED FAMILIAR!!! What gave it away for ME, was the bolts under the fender! If it WAS a model, it was built by a REAL bolt counter! ONLY THOSE kinda guys go to THAT extent!!!GREAT ONE Harry! Can't wait fer MONDAY!!!!!!
