  1. Dave, YOU GO DUDE!!!! TEAR IT UP!!!!!!!
  2. DARIN! GREAT to see you back! Thanks for letting us know what's going on.Sorry to hear about your problems,But it sounds like things are getting better,Praise God. Yes by ALL means, take care of your family,the models (and US) will still be here when you come back. ALWAYS a pleasure to see your builds,I've missed them. Glad you took the time to stop in and let us know. God Bless you and your family.
  3. YOW! DEFINATLEY, a thing of Joy and Beauty forever! GREAT BUILD!!!!
  4. Sweet lookin lil truck Tim! I know which one it is, but I've NEVER seen one customed out! Did a motor come in it? It looks like a BB chevy Where'd you get it? That's so cool! I REALLY like it!
  5. Probly the new GT or Shelby,caz that LOOKS like a blower sittin 'tween the heads.
  6. Jon, if your worried about the body warpin, just turn the heat down. I don't think the tape'll EVER catsh fire.Paper burns at 451 degrees, MUCH hotter than your dehydrator can reach. Or should. If you place the model on the highest grids it SHOULD dry your paint,and not ruin your model.Hope this helps
  7. Like I said Dingo, ya gotta LOVE that Aussie sense of humor! Betcha bein named after a dog made ya tuff!, like the boy named Sue!
  8. As the Big Kahuna would say,"I Pau"
  9. Maybe not, but what about the "The Polish Sausage" ( if your not polish, just substitute your own nationality!) Them ol broads are VERY appericiative!!!
  10. Heck NO Harry, Deeetroit's like a ghosttown as far as work is concerned! BUT, over in Canadia,them ol broads still got some mad money ta spend! Sides, just doin my share to keep the international Good Will thing goin. Hey, you interested?
  11. Mike, don't say I didn't warn you, BUT, I think that What's his name who sells the old JoHan models,has that in a 4dr. It's a curbside unbuilt promo, but it looks close enough. Good Luck, I hope this helps.
  12. Goat, It won't hurt to take Mr.Biggs advice. Have you ever seen 300? That's his custom Semi, an if you wanna see what a KILLER Profesional paint job looks like, you CAN'T go any better than that! Besides, he DOES make sense about protecting the decals under the clear.

    BOSS 429

    Yep, It sure LOOKS like a 70 Boss 429! Good job, REAL nice paint on it. She came out REAL NICE!!!
  14. Hey Jurg, GREAT to see yer back at the bench! Your lil 55's lookin good Bro. Hey, it's only a model so it can be ANYTHING you want it to! Who knows, maybe this ride started the whole Lo-Lo thing back in Cali! Either way, she's looking GOOD!!!
  15. Is that the Dukes Charger? Or is it an ORIGINAL MPC Dodge Charger? I don't think It'll sell till you put some tires'n wheels on it though. But once she's up an runnin, you can probly name your price! I had to sell my 69 440 R/T 4spd,way back in the 70's,But I'd buy that rascal if it were inna barn/Garage forgotten somewhere!
  16. Jeff, over a Danny's Lounge, in Windsor, them ol broads pay REAL GOOD to see some of this ol "Mexican Chorizo" that's my "stage"name! Good extra income for a ol retired fart!(Even ol ladies need attention)
  17. Looks GREAT Fletch. Only thing is,to me, the chrome on the wheels is TOO shiney. Maybe a shot of clear dullcoat, just so's they match the weathering of the rest of the truck? She DOES look good for an ol beater!
  18. Well Bill, you can ALWAYS have it back in scale!!! Looks like LSU is tryin to copy YOUR ride!
  19. Not to worry Rick, caz it's ALL good! See WHY I LOVE this place?!!!!
  20. Brave enough to try it? Yeeesh this the FIRST I've ever seen/heard about somethin like this! For those who can't paint well(me included) this may be a GOOD thing. I wonder if a basecoat would affect the final color.Seems like it would come off like a clearcoat candy color. Veeeerrrryyyyy interesting!
  21. Lookin good Roadhawg! Mopes an Chevs are my favorite brands! I did kinda lose my thing for Mopar AFTER 71(no more Hemi's) The new ones don't do a thing for me. But as long as I can still build 'em in 25th scale I'm happy. Your Challenger's lookin good, great build!
  22. Gotta agree with the guys,Charlie. If the rest of the build comes out as well as them there injectors, she's gonna be a beaut!
  23. Fuji, I TOLD you, Harry can photo shop ANYTHING! Ya gotta look at the car!!! (Bet that's a normal lookin sky on Remulak!!!(the conehead planet!)
  24. Good ta see ya back Jeff!!! Don't worry, I'm retired now, but I workin real hard at my NEW job as a stripper in Canada! (They wouldn't let me strip HERE!) ANYWAYS, we gotta give Harry SOME encouragement,otherwise he MIGHT take his pics an GO HOME!!! (And Harry's crazy,is part of the song.BUT who knows, he just MAY be, after hangin with US for so long!!! )
  25. I think Tommy had the right idea! Just about ANYTHING'S BETTER than nasboor in it's present state.Believe it or not, I haven't found it interesting enough to watch anymore.YEARS ago, when they ran cars that looked like the ones we drove, I watched, but todays cars are soooo boring, I don't know what is what. At least Drag racing and Road Racing are still individual cars and you CAN tell what is what.
