  1. Started working on the Revell Corvette Stingray. Managed to get the best clear coat I have ever achieved. The body sat for a week to let the clear coat harden. I thought that was enough time. Obviously not. Started polishing a couple of rough areas to find out I had managed to put three really nice and deep fingerprints on the body. No polishing that out, so I have the body sitting in brake fluid right now.
  2. That's quite a project! Looking foward to seeing more!
  3. Is there any updated news as to when the flatbed trailer will be released? Looking foward to getting a couple of these!
  4. Here in Alabama, it's going to be in the mid 90's all week with the humidity in the high 70's. It's standing at 76% right now.
  5. Lacuna Coil cover of Depeche Mode's Enjoy the Silence.
  6. There are a number of wrecks that are very well preserved. The Hornet, Wasp, Indianapolis, Bismark and others. The deeper they are, the less oxygen there is. There is deterioration, but it is so slow, it will probably take hundreds of years to have any real effect on the structural integrity of the wreck. There are shipwrecks on the great lakes that have been there for a hundred years or more and they look like they sank yesterday.
  7. Incredible builds! Thank you for sharing!
  8. It's only been, what, 13 years? Pretty excited! Slipknot's new album just came out as well! It's a good year for metal!
  9. Listening to Slipknot's new album for a day straight, now. Any metal fans, here?
  10. I bought one when they re-issued it. Should have bought a few more.
  11. I just got the AMT 2017 50th anniversary edition Camaro and the Dirty Donny 69 Plymouth GTX.
  12. Just got these in the mail yesterday. Tried them out and absolutely love them! Best $325 I have spent!
  13. These two beauties just came today. An early birthday present for myself.
  14. I love heavy metal, so it's only appropriate that my name is metalhead
  15. They do take a while. But I have put in several orders and have received them. They really need to work on their shipping.
  16. Makes me glad I got this. 2007 Ranger and I couldn't be any happier with it.
  17. That blue is incredible! What paint did you use?
  18. I hate spiders with a passion. I understand they are important for pest control, but I still hate them nonetheless.
  19. Against my better judgement, I clicked on this and I regret every second of it.
  20. Thank you. I sure hope everything works out.
  21. No sir. Especially when you just financed a truck.
  22. I start my new job at Hyundai Power Transformers on Tuesday. I got let go from my previous one because I was the unfortunate victim of racism and I had to self defend myself. They have a zero tolerance policy, so both of us got let go. But my new job is a LOT less stressful, pays a LOT more, and has very good benefits. So, I'm very eager to get back to work after being out of work for almost a month.
  23. Being able to actually take a hit and keep on going. These days, a small fender bender shuts the vehicle down on most occasions. I know, safety and all that good stuff, but you don't see many new model cars that you can rip most of the front end off and still being able to drive it.
  24. Can't wait for it, either! I have the original release and a couple of the one with the sleeper fairing. eBay prices are just too much these days. I got extremely lucky in finding the ones I have at good prices. Am I correct that this release won't have the side skirts or the fairing? If not, it won't be a deal breaker. It would be nice to have, though.
  25. Does anyone know if this one is still going to be released this year? Looked all over the web and didn't find anything for a release date. Would love to snatch up a couple. I have an idea for a project in mind for a heavy construction hauler.
