  1. Yes Mike
  2. There could be a lot off racing technology that could be developed and transferred to EV's. I would watch it at least one time before I have an opinion about it. Mike
  3. The title says it all. Mike
  4. I LUV it. It must of come from Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge Mike
  5. Please Send me a PM with pictures and what you want for it. Thanks Mike
  6. The title says it all. Let me know what you would need for the trade. Mike
  7. PM SENT
  8. What are the other manufacturers besides the NSR? Mike
  9. I am a builder. I am 72 if I were to complete one build a month, I would be 82. I have been trying just build what I have and use the rattle cans that have. I have stopped buying now that kits are over $30.00. Even with Hobby Lobby's 40% off there is not a great selection. I swear they have been selling the AMT 1968 Shelby GT 500 Mustang for at least 15 years now. The average kit at the show by me has been $15.00. I am going to the next one and see what the average is. Just thinking, do I get a couple of tables and low-ball the price to $10.00 just to get rid of them? Maybe now $15.00 is a low-ball price. Not only the kits what about the builds? Would anyone appreciate the skill involved in building a model? In my will should I request an extra-large coffin so I can be buried with all of my kits and builds? Maybe just cremate them all. Lastly, I saw an ad for a $160.00 Alpha kit in the magazine. Kudos to anyone who buys one. I like to ask questions and get other people's opinions before I chime in with mine. Thanks to all for your comments. Mike
  10. Are you just a collector and builder or just a collector? Mike
  11. My wife collects antique glassware Heaven forbid that I make a Rum and Coke in one of them. The world would stop spinning. I am gonna ask the question in Off Topic are you just a collector or a builder?
  12. To me accuracy does not matter. Are the drooping lines being a result of bad measuring, the limitations of making the tooling or plastic injection process? Mike
  13. Yes I would like to know. Do I want to burden my family with liquidating my stuff or just dump all of it into the recycling bin? Mike
  14. Looking forward, what is gonna happen to my all my kits when I die? Mike
  15. Looks good to me. Post a picture of your kit and let's compare.
  16. I need Part # 6 rear body panel from a 70 Ford Torino GT 2in1 Kit 4099 and part #150 Front windshield The 1970 Torino Cobra Jet rear panel should fit and windshield. The taillights are different. Maybe there is a resin rear body panel ? Thanks for looking. Mike
  17. I have used them before. They are brittle and break very easily. I bought a Zona saw kit. The Zona saw works much better than the AK photo etched saw. Good luck Mike

  18. Very nice I hope mine turns out half as good as yours. Do you have WIP for this build? Mike
  19. I live in a small farming town. 1 hour west of Chicago. Hampshire IL. Mike
  20. I am trying to decal the car. These are the worst decals that I have ever used. They just rip apart the red pinstripes, the marker lights, and the hood decals. Did AMT offer replacement decals for this garbage. Mike
