LUIS,your signature says it all. -
Yeah, but you dontneed to worry bout it Gregg ,cuz it cant hold a candle to ours!

Wow Dale thanks for the clarification,After readin tooslo or loslo or whatever ,I thought this might be a joke too!Ya know some nice builds can come out of some of those bare basic motorized kits. Yours looks pretty cool.Never knew they put those tails on regular Porsches.Looks like it'll come out pretty good.

List Your Modeling Heroes...
george 53 replied to a topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
My Big Brudder,Art,he used to build KILLER models way back when he still built them.Bill Geary,His attention to/execution of detail is no less than AMAZING! Personally, he is in a class all by himself! I WISHI could be THAT good! and Raul Perez,his builds,paint work and Imagination for style and flow always amaze me.Never saw a bad or uninteresting build from any of these guys! -

Ball,I'm all with my bud Raul,Glad to hear your doin/feelin better.Remember just cuz that vertibre heals up,doesnt mean it cant crack again,be careful take it easy,make sure every things cool with your back before you start gettin crazy with the weights an stuff.you may be a young guy, but you aint Superman! take it easy! -
Great color Chris actually looks like a color called "Butterscotch Yellow" that was available as an option that year.Nice clean build,I likesesit!

OH, it's under General topics 2nd page about 1/2 way down, and I'm with Roadapple,WHAT is a menehune?

Clay,Different lil hawaiian dude.But since I know Gregg will be there maybe he'll have a coupla mags on hand.Hey he might even be able to talk with the lil hawaiian dude an get him on the ball! I think by now though his legs will be just as tired as his arms after all that walkin.check out Raul's thread "Hats off to Harry",Mar.30th to see wat were talkin about
-
Road,Be careful cuz these kinda things have a way of cummin back to bite you in as* make sure you got a cool fiddy on hand ,just in case!Or just dont get real attached to it.

Guys, what Road apple says aint no joke! last year after gettin my mags later than normal I went down to my local P/O an complained to the boss down there, they actually called me back a few days later an told me they had the latest issue there! turns out someone HAD read it an dint put it in the bin to be delivered! They appologised like a little kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar! told me it wouldnt happen again an did I want to file a formal complaint with the post master general! Never being one to mess with the brass ,I let it slide cas I dint feel a mag was worth someone maybe gettin a reprimand or worse.I just wanted my mag.Jus like now.I'm tempted to kick the lil hawiian dudes butt,but then maybe next time he wont come atall! besides it COULD still be at the P/O!If anyone sees the lil hawiian dude out there,let him know I aint mad,just anxious!

WAT? You gonna stop buildin your cars cuza what some people say? The heck with those guys, I always thought we built for ourselves an not for anyone else!So someone dont got enuf sense to know how to appericiate anothers hard work an talent,dont let someone get you down over somethin like this,St8t life is hard enuff, dont quit somethin you enjoy doin for anyone,as long as you dont hurt anyone or due illegal sh8t,you shouldnt care what ANYONE says.Stay withit youll only hurt yourself if you gi ve up because of what people say.who knows maybe their just jealous.DO NOT QUIT! -
Really nice model Tom, Looks real sharp. Interesting but sad story about that car though,Seems the young fella that raced the real car on the East coast, outa new york or Jersey I think, Died in Viet Nam in 68 after only 3 mos. in country. some of his friends recently found the car and restored it as a tribute to him,and theyre running it again. I got this story outa Hemmings Muscle Car Review.

Great job Harold.Ive got a 68 stillin the box that I picked up quite a while ago in a package deal.Never built it though cuz I'm not all that into furds.I might be now though,cuz yours came out soooo nice.Really looks nice!
