  1. Thanks for the info. Here is another nostalgia drag racing site. I think that this has been posted before GEORGE KLASS REMEMBERS... - HOME
  2. Learned something new about Shelby today. Thanks to Alan for that great picture. Shelby Super Snake – Prudhomme Turns Back the Clock | Fuel Curve Mike
  3. Great Picture. A few years ago, at a NHRA event at the Chicago [Joliet IL] drag strip they had a Cakel Fest. A bunch of front engine dragsters started up their engines and revved up to the rev-limiters. Very Kool People just stood there watching while their ear drums burst and inhaling Nitro fumes until they passed out LOL. Me any time a nitro car starts I go the other way Mike

  5. I tried log on from my favorite page and got this today. I was able to use a trash E-Mail to log on. Any ideas to what is going on? Mike Privacy error (modelcarsmag.com)
  6. Thanks for the info. I have been using Bob Smith CA there are a lot of good reviews. But had the same problems with it. Now that I am thinking about all the CA bottles have clogged up about 1 half to one 1 third empty. I bought a new bottle of CA house brand from Hobby Lobby yesterday. After the first time I use it will go into a zip lock and then into the fridge. Thanks Mike

  8. I have been having trouble with CA glue drying and clogging up in the tip. I clean the bottle threads, tip, and cap. Within a half hour the tip is clogged up. The bottle is about 1/3rd full. I tried putting a long pin into the cap and that did not help. Does CA have a shelf life? Thanks Mike
  9. David Gurga[ewetwo] saved my butt on this one. The 1959 Impala El Camino I bought at a toy show was open but it I took a chance. $15.00.The dash is missing UGH !! I am not as good as I thought at spotting missing parts. Mike 1017
  10. Leading his team with just basic drafting tools he designed some of the most iconic flying machines. Oxcart A-12, SR-71, and the U-2. are just a few of his creations that started with a pencil and paper. You are gonna be missed Mike 1017C
  11. Perry, Have you done the conversion from 2 door to 4 door yet? Mike

  13. You Tube. I have done this with paint brushes
  14. Repeating myself. After painting any part with Molotov Chrome, it goes into my dehydrator for about 8 hours. Before I handle any part sprayed with Molotov, I wash my hands. My dehydrator dries out Testators Gloss Black enamel in 10 hours or so. Good luck Mike
  15. Thank you for all of your compliments. It does mean a lot to me. It did turn out nice Mike
  16. Tamiya TS 75 Champaign Gold Pearl and Dupli Color Toyota Almond Biege Champaign Gold. All of the chrome moldings were airbrushed with Molotov Chrome. The car spent about 8 hours in my dehydrator Thanks for the compliment Mike
  17. Thanks for all the Good Whishes Mike
  18. Thanks for the pictures. I agree with Tom that Buick is fantastic Mike
  19. I was born 70 years ago today. The last time I was so happy about my birthday was when I turned 21. I retired in February and still working on a daily schedule. I can't believe how well I sleep now, no more 3am alarms and going off to work. For the most part I am in perfect health. BUT my 70-year-old body, still has the brain of an 18-year-old juvenile delinquent. Thanks for looking Mike
  20. Got this done today as I was born 9/10/1952. Looks I gotta work on the hood.
  21. After the demise of the Muscle Car. Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge in Chicago built some of coolest in the country.This is his personal van. Another one. Not too many survived. Chicago's use of road salt turned these into rust buckets along with 10's of thousands of other vehicles.
  22. I also use that type of container. The lids of containers are great for mixing paint and epoxy glue.
  23. Ford Mavericks had some unique names for their paint colors Three Putt Green, There She Blue, Anti-Establish Mint, Last Stand Custard and so on and so on. Mike
