  3. Since I was just a teeny tiny lad I've always made my cars to roll.Sometimes ,yust sometimes when no one is watching ,I even rollthem around for my own amusement. After all, they ARE cars. But then again the ships traveling down the DEEEtroit River dont tend to upset them the way Jets or Helo's oreven cannon fire would.

  12. Guy's , Michael's runs those coupons at least 3 times a month, they work on anything in the store unless they are already on sale.Just look in the same flyer to make sure the models aren't on sale, and your good to go.George53.
  13. Bow ,yeah, I would think all you'd have to do is change the grille & tailight panel and fill the fender vents I mean the same basic body and all,thats all Plymouth did.George53.
  14. Pat thanks for getting back with me, I'm afraid I missed this months meeting but I will make next months. Thanks again, George53
  15. Gregg you think maybe you could get me a cheap rate on "2 tickets to paradise" George53
  16. Naw J.B, Ithink your right,that rag has done nothin but gone downhill since Gary sold it.From 2 excellent titles 12 times a year, to a half assed rag 6 times a year.I wonder if Gary Schmidt ever thought how lousy his hard work would become.They said it was going down to 6 issues a year to be a better magazine, But I think it was just a reason for kalmbach to save money. I'm still surprised that they wouldn't take Gregg's ad though, they must be AFRAID of a little worthy competition. I still do miss the old SAE and Car Modeler though. But fuggit Modelcars is a better mag anyways! just my humble opinion (and you know what they say about opinions)George53.
  17. OUTSTANDING! Marine wife Jones,Exellent eye youd make a good sniper. See what a good team Marines make? Listen up people. You deserve credit and youve earned it. Good luck and keep Jones Clayton on his toes! Semper Fi ! George53
  18. Ok K-dog!, Now I can built a companion for my 71 Dart Swinger. How do I go abuot gettin one,and how much? George53.
  19. Hey guys thats what i said in the other thread, not enough people know about it.I know SAE is the competition but what would it hurt to advertise in it? unless they(sae)wont it. which would be stupid cuz advertising revenue is income,income is money and soforth just my 2 cents worth,George53
  20. Mr O,are you testing us and will this be in Fridays quiz?It sure does look like the oooollldd chrysler turbine car.but i could be wrong me memorys not what it used to be .and sorry bout not havin my homework ready it was abducted by ALIENS!(or maybe my dog ate it) George53
  21. WOW! a real live wife! My better half already shares this hobby with me, maybe she'll see this and want to join too.Is that too much togetherness? Any way WELCOME Marine wife Jones.SEMPER FI. George53
  22. I live in Allen Park, Mich.,a suburb of Detroit(oh joy! lucky me) and theres a m/c club around here somewhere called the Down River Model Car Club (cuz were down the river from Det.) Does ANYONE know where it's at? I would like to see about joinig it but I CANT FIND IT! can anyone help me out? Thanks George53.
  23. When I gpt married my wife saw my models and asked "do you really build them or just collect them?" Both, I said.Now 36 yrs. later we go to the toy shows and when my vendor friends don't see her they know she's just takin a bag of bought kits out to the car.I take her to all the shows I go to cause she's my control valve, and she's got a hell of a memory.Wouldn't leave home without her! George53
  24. Fender,man for a kid in the 60's you sure weren't afraid to experiment. The 32 is kinda different,but still kinda keepin with the trends of the day(remember the Beach Boys album with the blue scalloped 32 on the cover? kinda reminds me of that.) But the other one ,I see the Edsel grille and maybe the headlites,but grafting the fenders and hood from a 30's car onto a 50's body took ALOT of imagineation! Somehow in it's own weird way though it works.Bring those ideas into the 21st century and you'll probably be ok.welcome back!,George53.
