  1. Beautiful car, beautiful model!
  2. OK... if that was the intent, that explains it.
  3. It sure looks good in the photos!
  4. Nice model, very cleanly built (as I would expect from you)... but I have to go against the crowd on one issue. I don't get the "weathering," it doesn't look realistic to me. Was it a red Beetle that somehow has started to turn black? How would that be possible? And why would the "weathering" end precisely at the side chrome strip? Doesn't seem to be a very realistic "weathering" pattern to me. Sorry, but I hafta call it like I see it.
  5. If you're sure it should have been posted in Off Topic, why didn't you post it there?
  6. I'm waiting for the day that India starts placing their customer service call centers here in the US. "Howdy! Sanjay's the name and customer service is the game! Now what kin I do ya fer?"
  7. Why do Japanese car makers have assembly plants in the US, but American car makers don't have any assembly plants in Japan?
  8. Very nice work on the engine. Very believable and realistic. But you are "mixing metaphors" with the very realistically weathered engine and the suspiciously brand-spanking-new looking springs.
  9. Also... is the side window trim done with foil? If so, that's about the nicest, sharpest foil application I've seen in a long time.
  10. Man, that's a beauty! But dang, that "gumball" is huge! Is it to correct scale?
  11. Aren't they what are called "pit bulls?" Kind of nasty temperament?
  12. But seriously, folks... What is an online forum for if not for the gathering and sharing of information?
  13. Easy solution: Next time you want to buy a kit, ask for info here first. You'll get plenty of good, solid advice.
  14. "Incest" is spelled correctly...
  15. That was the same GM engineer who first approved the switch even though he knew it didn't meet GM specs. He later redesigned the switch but never changed the part number, so like you say, GM now has no way of knowing which cars have the original faulty switch or the redesigned one... so they all have to be replaced. That guy has since been fired, but the damage is done. I wonder if he got to keep his GM pension plan?
  16. Wow... blown into the future! Heavy...
