  1. Yeah, there's one on Evil-Bay right now. I've NEVER seen one, but Hobbico lists it too.Evidently it's 1/24th scale, and if it's an exact repro of the T.V. show, it should be pretty cool. It's tracked, able to hold 6 fully dressed in space suits adults, AND a Robot! I'm thinkin it would be cool to trick it out. Sound system, tinted glass, lotsa bling, I mean, who knows how folks is gonna be partyin on the moon in the next century.
  2. Dave, Dave, Dave, now WHY does it come as NO suprise to me to see ya postin new builds on the 1st day of the New Year?Well it looks like it's off to a good start at least! Hope you have a GREAT New Year my Freind, God Bless You!
  3. OK, with appologies to Jeff/Cornpatch, I blew it! BUT it was the seatbelt retractors that threw me! For some reason, I haven't been thinkin in 12th, 18th's or 1/8ths, BUT after THIS I shall start! Oh Harry, what hast thou wrought?
  4. Goldenrod is there for a reason, Scummy. She held the world's speed record for quite a few years, and may yet still hold some! Hot Rod Magazine did an EXCELLENT article on her reconstruction/restoration about 2 years ago, and man, you wouldn't beleive what they do to a car in those circumstances, even if it NEVER runs again, they build them back up like they will. It's just like new,and ready to set some more records!
