Do they make an HO scale XKE?

Yep that one's from the Monogram TD Baja bandito.I built the one from the Vandal and I can't wait to get one once they re-release the vandal.

AMAZING craftmanship

Man that's cool.Sometimes I would love to see all of your thoughts and crazy ideas about models in your head.

Congrats,the feeling of placing in a model show is just great.Almost the same feeling as finding a twenty on the sidewalk,It just makes your day.And for the contest just take it to any contest it hasn't been to before.

How about Panther Pink?

Yea that's what I'm gonna do,Guess I just had a brain fart when I spayed it without knowing much about it.Anyone need a almost new 12 oz can of Valspar white primer?

Me and Casey talked that over today,so now it's a dead horse. The primer says that it's a premium Enamel,I talked with a guy from Valspar on the phone for about thirty minutes and he said that I should put it in the shade with a fan on it.So it's been like that for about three hours with no improvement.

When I sprayed Wednesday there was no rain so It wasn't humid,I think the temp was some wheres in the mid 80's with a light breeze. The coat of white was so light I can still see the things I drew on the van. I also couldn't find anything on the can about plastic,wood,metal,ect. I just thought that since Valspar owns Plastikote they would be the same thing,I think that assumption was off.Also I didn't find any other directions then the shake vigorously and spray outdoors

Amazing end result there Ira.

I spayed a model with Valspar white primer three days ago and it is still tacky.Should I lightly toast it to bake on the primer? Also why was my thread on Plastikote locked?I wasn't violating any rules was I?

I was about to mention that,it's from the 90's because I got a testors kit from that era with an ad fro buying the collection on vhs.

The first post should have said "And now for something completely different."Crazy

Man that's cool,glad someone finished something relating to my CBP.Great job by the way.

Nothing makes me think Christmas more then "Stay Puff" marshmallow man.

Since Valspar own Plastikote is their primer the same?Or will it eat plastic. I also know about the place in Shelbyville,I just don't want to drive 23 miles for a can of primer.

Thanks for the link but the two stores that showed up on the list didn't even know what it was.

I checked on their website and checked the two stores that were authorized sellers of plastikote.Places I have checked:Northern tool, do it best,lowes,target,home depot, walmart, autozone ,o' reillys and k-mart.Where can I localy get this stuff?

I miss "American Trucker" great subject matter.

thanks for the help guys,hopefully I can get on it soon.

Sorry to hear about your loss, dogs are just like family members.

I have the AMT Phantom re-issue and want to use the diamond porthole windows but don't know how to cut them out of the body.Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.

John you have to stop this,I have broken my jaw at least five times and this isn't even complete!Great job,someday I hope I can see all of your models in person.

OH MY GOSH! I love this car! I wish there was a resin body for this kit,as I have the cord and want to make this.

I really want to have a bed in mine so I can put cargo and/or a minibike in it.Any suggestions?
