  1. My local Hobby Lobby's stock of Testors has been getting low and they are not restocking it. Soon I hope they start selling Revell paint. I bought some on line . The enamel is like Testors .The acrylic's are very good. Mike
  2. Thanks for the info Mike
  3. www.Jimnohio.com - Car and truck model kits for sale at Jimnohio. (urlm.co)
  4. Even though some of the rusted out barn finds, Rat Rods, and dioramas are great builds I just don't get into them. Mike
  5. I that he is Jim From Ohio. I bought some stuff from him. He had the best prices for kits and shipping. Mike
  6. Thanks for all the responses I have 3 things that I do. Model building, slot car racing, and I just bought a new bike
  7. It was Monday morning and I noticed a lot on members on the forum. So I was wondering are all these people retired like me. Check in while working? Took the day off? Heath problems? Filthy rich don't work? Live in different time zone? While I was working I never went on line only the weekends. Mike
  8. Just curious
  9. There are 58 members and 132 guests on line today 10.45a. Are all of you retired like me ? Mike
  10. This much better Thanks Rob
  11. This is great. IMO you need more time between pictures to study each one before it switches. It is just to fast for me. Looking forward to more comparisons Mike
  12. I had the same problem . I bought one of those large refill bottles. When it was about half empty I pulled the tip out of all the pens and poured it into the refill bottle. The tip on the refill bottle is small and comes out drip by drip. Some masking tape and a steady hand I can do all of the chrome with a brush. Mike
  13. I had a 1973 Vega GT. Red, black stripes, white raised letter tires and a 4 speed. I LUVED that car. Fun to drive with the 4 speed. No engine problems I traded in for a 1976 Buick Regal. When I was growing up once you paid off your car it was time to buy a new one. Mike
  14. For as long as I can remember every time we need to change the clocks. This discussion takes place. I do understand the pros and cons. Come on it is only 1 hour. I am in favor of anyone of the permanent time changes. Mike
  15. As always a great build Mike
  16. If you go to USCP Face Book you can get a first hand account of what those PROUD people are going through. Mike
  17. My local Hobby Lobby just started to get Mr. Hobby products. It works very well. You know you when you melt plastic with thinner. It is sort of like that. Mike
  18. Some one here recommended this. I use it all the time. Golden Acrylic Retarder - 4 oz bottle | BLICK Art Materials (dickblick.com)

  20. No. But I have a can of Chrome that I try
  21. Mustang GT4 Book Matched FULL CARBON JACKET – Scale Motorsport
  22. Molotov is fragile so I decided to put the parts into my dehydrator. If it can dry out Testors Enamel it just might work on Molotov. It works Mike

  24. Intake: Classic Recreations has crafted the lightest Shelby Cobra body ever made. Made of carbon fiber, the entire shell, including hood and doors, weighs just 88 lbs. Uniquely, the carbon structure is so stiff this Cobra doesn’t require a tubular chassis like its predecessors, and will “rival current supercars in weight and horsepower” according Shelby American. Carbon fiber tackles the first part while the second is covered by a supercharged Ford Performance Gen 3 Coyote engine generating more than 800 hp. A T56 Magnum Tremec transmission and Wilwood six-piston brakes are fitted. Dubbed the Diamond Edition to celebrate 60 years of Shelby American, it is officially licensed, will get CSX serial numbers, and be built by a new special division at Classic Recreations. Only ten will be made, priced at $1.2 million apiece.
