  1. Ron Andrews over at RMR resins has one. I just picked one up at Toledo. He has them in different degrees of completeness. I just purchased the body, but he DOES offer a pretty good Pro Stock starter conversion.hth.
  2. Ohhhh Jesse, you rascal you, that's exactly how you do it! She'll never know what happened to the brush!
  3. Steve, is that a 25th scale conversion kit? What did it hit you for?
  4. Why all the hate guys? You don't like this style Vette? It just seems to be a natural progression of the kit. Unless it IS all NEW tooling, as was mentioned. But It'sa nice lookin car so, how come so many folks think it's not a good or interesting kit? I'll buy one or two. I have the die-cast version and it's a nice kit. The roof THAT important? Just askin......
  5. Barry, use some thin clear plastic sheet to make your windows. I have some clear Thermoform plastic that I got from Squadron Shop. It cuts real easy and It's perfect for flat panes like you need. Hth.
  6. My thoughts exactly, Bill. Heck, I didn't even know there WAS a difference in the hardtops for those years! Thanks for mentioning it, now I'll watch for them! I was just gonna throw a older roof on that rascal! Thanks!
  7. Oh, and sorry I got off topic, but your lil Dragula is PERFECTLY BEAUTIFUL!!!! GREAT job!!!
  8. I've LOVED this ride since the first time I saw it on TV! As a kid, with my gross imagination, I'd imagine, at a funeral, on HOW to customize a coffin for GrandPa! Times change, I have more respect at Funerals now, but EVERY so often, I STILL tend to wander....
  9. Not that I know of. We'da had pictures of THAT bad boy for sure!!!
  10. Thank you for posting these pics. I had HEARD about it, but this is the first pics I've seen of it. Yeah, it looks to be a very nice kit. I can see it with a C-6 or so suspension.
  11. Gonna have to see them side by side, cause they sure don't look that different to me. Like I said, just the grilles,headlites an taillites. what else is diffeent?
  12. Welcome Jim! Yeah, most of us older builders have nice stash stores like that. Nice to NOT have to go buy something to build! But I can't help but try to get the new releases, (Must be force of habit!) so like others, my stash keeps growin!
  13. I don't know WHAT it is, other than it sure IS PURRRRTY!!!!
  14. THAT is VERRRRY nice, Miguel! Too bad no one makes something like that in 24/25th scale! I have two old Hess Training Vans, that make GREAT companions to my models, but those Hess RV's are the only one's I've ever seen. They look good, but you have to make the interiors, as they come with molded toyish looking interiors. That die cast would be GREAT in a smaller 24/25th scale! I think it was Franklin Mint who made one YEARS ago(02 or so)That was BEATUIFUL, It was just a trailer, but FULLY equiped. It was THE one to have. Now, IF i find one, it's usually around 3 to 5 hundred bucks! I like your price better!
  15. Aaron, The 55 in Two Lane was a POST coupe, Brother. But don't stop know, cause it's lookin good!!!!
  16. WOW! Gary that paint is gorgeous! Great colors! Could ya show us how you converted the roof? Did you use the original roof and mod it, or did you use a totally different roof from another car? If so, which one? These are the kind of conversions that REALLY get my attention!
  17. I've seen that kit and it IS a beautifully done conversion. I too must say thank you to Mr. Weinstein for shareing his remarkable talents with us.
  18. THANK YOU, Matt! It looked like the same car to me, and I haven't seen another one, so I wasn't really sure about it. It's a Chinese kit i believe, or Japanese cause I can't make heads or tales from the label!
  19. I haven't used your product either, but with this type of integrity running your buisness, I certainly wouldn't hesitate to use you now! THANK YOU for your honesty, It says MORE about you that you may realize.
  20. Beautiful build!REAL nice paint! How many variations of this body did Lambo make? I have one that looks EXACTLY like yours but mine's called a Jota. Is a Jota a Muira, only in another language?, or is one a whole different car than the other? They look the same. Mine is molded with opening doors.
  21. WOW! VERRRRRY smooth!!!! :D
  22. Actually, Eelco, I think he's going to be big on dioramas! He's place the details in there pretty good! Give him a hotwheels to park in the drive! Your teachin him RIGHT,brother!!!
  23. THANKS for the update! I was wondering where he had gone to. GLAD ta hear he's still here,in spirit if not able to join in. Hope he gets everything squared away quickly!
  24. And Pepperoni! That's cool, i LIKE it! my kinda different!
