  1. Most Excellent build. Nice touch having the crew taking a break. Mike
  2. As always, a great build. It is interesting that The Grump change from black painted motors to Chevy Orange. Mike
  3. Nothing beats a well-built Cobra. Mike
  4. Nice work. Are those slot car wheels and tires? Mike
  5. I have got nieces and nephews still in school. Thank you for the brilliant suggestion. Mike
  6. I agree. I would not buy any collectible car or a bucket list car. Unless I drive it like I stole it, put it on a hoist, let it idle for 30 minutes and use a paint thickness gauge. No Auction Bondo Bucket for me.
  7. I watch Mecum and prices for Thunderbirds are creeping up. The announcers like all of us comment on why such low prices. A rotisserie restoration brings big bucks. Amos Minter Thunderbirds can bring as much as $80,000 to $200,000 My dream Thunderbird is a 1966 428 Q code, triple black hardtop, with every available option. I don't like convertibles Mike
  8. I built this about 15 years ago. Does anyone remember JIM IN OHIO? He had the best prices and lowest shipping. One of the kits that I ordered from him was missing the steering wheel. He apologized and said, "I will send any kit you want". Who does that anymore? I still have the original decals. Mike

    PINTO!

    This was built about 15 years ago. I don't know if anyone remembers JIMINOHIO. He Had the best prices and lowest shipping. One of the kits I had ordered the steering wheel missing. He told me to pick another kit for free. Who does this now? Mike
  10. I see diecast Cobra Jet, C.O.P.O and Challenger. Just a guess. If the diecast sales numbers don't meet expectation's there is no need to manufacture a plastic kit? Mike
  11. Great build. I have one sitting on my shelf wondering what to do with it. Thanks for the inspiration. Again, Great Build Mike
  12. I wonder if 1:1 automotive thinner is next? Mike
  13. I agree windows are the biggest culprits
  14. Happy Thanksgiving to all in our community. I am thankful for being cancer free for 18 months. Thankful for modern medicine which made this possible. Mike
  15. Michelle, If you want this PM me Mike
  16. Has anyone purchased any products from them? I really hate to buy direct from a Chinese owned company. The item that I want to purchase is 50% lower than any US companies have to offer. This how they get you hooked. Thanks Mike
  17. LIVE LONG AND PROSPER 🖖 Mike
  18. BEAUTIFULL !!!!
  19. Our family had a Cabin in Hayward WI on Lac Courte Oreilles. My dad, Uncle George, and Aunt Rose would rotate years. The 1959 Furry was the first car that I can remember. Lack of modern Hi-ways made this an 8-hour trip. This Fury is the same color as my dad's. This Jetstar 88 was so big that my dad put a piece of plywood in the back so that me and my brother could sleep during the trip. This Jetstar is the same color as my dad's Mike
  20. I am in need of the 2 Hockey Stick decals from any Boss 302. Mike
  21. Most Excellent
  22. 31 Photos of Car Shopping and Dealerships from the 70s
  23. One of my favorite cars. Nice work. I built one about 18 years ago. How long have you owned it? Mike
