THANK YOU, Art! You've just cranked the "gotta have it" to "GOTTA have it!" Moebius sure did hit a grand Slammer with this one, for sure! :D

Ron Andrews of RMR has it. It's nice, resin looks lke plastic, and it'sa complete kit, you add the driveline an tires, but it IS a nice kit.

IF you ALREADY have the MPC kit, and you WANT to build a subadiquit kit, GO for it! BUT if you want to build a DETAILED model of a Daytona the Revell kit is the ONLY way to go. Joe Dirt wasn't WORTHY of the destruction of a REAL Daytona! Such a stupid waste of a beautifully RARE car. The movie just wasn't worth THAT!

george 53 replied to Romell R's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Good you weren't around for all the kiddy BS that went down. Then again, MAYBE it wouldn'ta even GOT started if you had been here. Stay close Rom, the kids that LIKE ta start the games are STILL here, and they gettin BOLDER. So MAYBE YOU should get bolder too, an slam they butts BEFORE they start actin all stupid like.I missed your builds AND you, so WELCOME back!!! -
Yeeesh. I've only see one,no TWO other guys go to that length of detail in that scale,Stump. TWO of them, i call my freinds! You and Santiago Hernandez are the only guys i've known who can do this kind of work. Met a guy at the Toledo NNL's who does this kinda work too, he's a real nice guy who shared alot of the building tribulations that come with building your OWN parts!(just can't remember his name!) Personally, I think you guys are gluttons for punishment! But I LOVE seeing your work, it's like watchin a REAL one come together!

Rob, If your gonna show it, sand it off, the judges WILL detract points for it. If it's just for you, an your not gonna show it, who cares. It's yours.

Cool! Thanks Andy, I didn't know that! I just knew it wasn't the Manx I remembered! But your right, i HAD forgotten about the EMPI Imp. Man those were some times!
-
Great saves,Steve! Personally, I tend to turn off the wall promo's into models. You know, put a engine in them, open the hoods, etc. Yours came out great!
-
Monster, interesting concept,Nice execution. But how does the driver see to steer? with TWO Hemi's in it Bro, he'll be lookin at the SKY most of the time!!! :lol: Nice job, it came out great!

THANKS Harry! -
Guys, for few years now, HallMark card Stores have been running a Christmas Harley-Davidson run of scale motorcycle Christmas ornaments. I started mine about 3 years ago, with a Fat Boy. Last year it was a Tricycle police bike, in 25th scale. This year it'sa V-Rod, in 25th scale. Check them out, as they do run out FAST! I've never paid more than 15 bucks for one, and they REALLY look NICE on the shelf with the rest of the cars!

Looks real nice now, It'll be REALLY nice when you trim it out! Lookin REAL good,bro!
-
Looks Euro, but I like it. Nice smooth lines.

How Do You Use Your Decals?
george 53 replied to Dr. Cranky's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Actually,Virge, I don't use 'em. Unless they are specific to the car, like ID type decals, i don't use them.I don't put stickers or decals on my real cars, so unless they're REALLY spiffy like the old JoHan Cop car, it had a "Support Your Local Police" bumper decal, that I've always thought was cool, I don't tend to use 'em. But hey, the guys are right, do YOUR thing Brother, an don't worry wat anybody thinks, you build 'em for YOU! -
I agree, it IS a beautiful color! Goes GREAT with the interior.

Beautiful car! If you ever drove a 4 spd Charger, you'd see how well the shifter handle fits in your hand. I had a Hurst T-Handle on mine.Still have the original stock shifter ball too! My FAVORITE year of Charger.

Working front suspension, need your ideas
george 53 replied to Six-Fo's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Harry, those are alignment pin guides. They help hold the pieces in the jig as they're welded up to complete the whole assembly.
