I agree, the key to a fabulous black paint job is body prep. Mike

I will be 73 in September. Thanks to modern medicine I am a Cancer survivor. Mike

I would try Magnesium paint. A lot of wheels were made of Magnesium Thats why Mag wheels got the nick name Mags Mike

I use Poster Tack. I put a glob on the rear tire and my cars stay put. I also use it in my small display cases. Mike

Carl, How are things going? I hope you are better. Best wishes Mike

One of the best advices I got from the Forum is: Using a dehydrator . Mike

I have made copies of bad decals with my printer and decal paper. This method works great for me. Mike

This is great build. My favorite WW2 plane is the B-17 Mike

Excellent build. My mom's name was also Marge. She looks nothing like photo. LOL ? Mike

My Squirrel story. One morning I am down in my basement's family room. I hear this noise and I start looking around. Staring back at me through glass fireplace doors is a squirrel. Now what am I going to do? I grab my welding gloves and put them on. I open the doors just enough to get my hand into the fireplace and grab the squirrel. It clamps down on my thumb and I pull it out of the fireplace. Now what am I going to do? Break its neck or drown it the utility room sink? I went outside and thew it over my neighbor's fence glove and squirrel. The neighbor's dog just happened to be out in the yard, and it went nuts. That squirrel had a very bad day. Later that day I climbed onto my roof and repaired the damper and put on a new chimney cap. I am so glad that I closed the fireplace doors before going to bed. Mike

OMG This CRAZY KOOL Mike

Johnny, The decals arrived safe and sound today. Thank you Mike

I am just starting to build that kit. I am gonna build the Show Car. Did the1:1 have the wide body parts melded into the body or were they just slapped on? I looked at the 1:1 and I can't tell. Mike

Very nice build. The color combo is amazing.

While I was looking to build a diorama. I ran across printable paper ones. Has anyone built one? Mike

I used all of the custom pieces that came in the kit. Except for the hubcaps. I think they are from an Impala Mike

I started to gather info on building a Drag Strip diorama. I ran across paper dioramas on Esty. According to the instructions they will send me a download and I can print it out at home. Another option is to take it to a UPS Store and have them print onto foam poster board. I guess I would have to download it into a Flash Drive so UPS can print it out. Any advice will be much appreciated. Mike

Nice color combo

Looks great
