ok... I can get on board with liver and onions (mmmmmmm!)... but pig eyes (and worse)? Uh...... no thanks!

Yeah, no big deal. I mean, in kits that include operational cloth convertible tops and real springs in the seat cushions (yes, they do!)

Well, like they say... what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger!

Dr. Cranky must have a cast-iron stomach!

Hilarious! Around here, 39 degrees in January is a heat wave! Speaking of which... tomorrow is supposed to be 55!

Wow... lunch ladies make more $$$ than I thought!

There are only two ways to get rid of paint runs: You'll have to either sand them smooth and then repaint, or strip the boby and repaint. Sorry... no easy way.

If that stuff works as well as you say (and it's that cheap!), I'm sure plenty of people will want to give it a try.

Looks to me that the vent window frames aren't the problem, it's the glass that's too thick. I agree with Brian... replace the kit pieces with some clear acetate for a better look. The thickness of those "glass" pieces is really obvious on an open car.

You guys in Florida and Arizona are funny... Of course it's warm in Arizona and Florida today! It's always warm in Florida and Arizona.

So eyeballs and lips and tails and stuff haven't scared you off the scrapple yet?

It's 4 o'clock here... and 51 degrees! Woo Hoo!!!!

The most amazing thing is how he made the windows out of clear wood...

Well, when you work on a model for ten years you can do a lot of impressive stuff. That's not to say it's not incredibly impressive... just saying that I have a feeling there are plenty of people here on this forum who could do something equally impressive if they had 10 years to devote to it.

You hang up. No, you hang up. No, YOU hang up.

Very nice color combination, that's a real beauty!

From Global Gourmet.com... But what parts of the hog go into the creation of scrapple? After the ham, bacon, chops and other cuts of meat are taken from the butchered pig, what remains are fixings for scrapple, including the meat scraped off the head. Scrapple may contain skin, heart, liver, tongue—even pork brains. Those faint of palate needn't venture any further. Note: also may contain pig eyeballs. They don't waste anything when they make scrapple!

So in other words... scrapple is made of all the scraps and miscellaneous waste that can't actually be sold as "meat" on its own because nobody would buy it! Cranky... are you sure you still recommend "a scrapple a day keeps the doctor away?"

"The mush is formed into a semi-solid congealed loaf, and slices of the scrapple are then panfried before serving. Scraps of meat left over from butchering, not sold elsewhere, were made into scrapple to avoid waste." I don't know... somehow that doesn't sound very appealing to me... But all that scrapple that I won't eat means more for you guys!

From Wikipedia: Scrapple, also known by the Pennsylvania Dutch name pon haus, is traditionally a mush of pork scraps and trimmings combined with cornmeal and flour, often buckwheat flour, and spices. The mush is formed into a semi-solid congealed loaf, and slices of the scrapple are then panfried before serving. Scraps of meat left over from butchering, not used or sold elsewhere, were made into scrapple to avoid waste. Yikes...

Real or model? The answer: REAL!

Nice, for a "rush job"... but why put yourself through that kind of stress? Building a model under a deadline? Seriously? I thought this was supposed to be a hobby, not a chore... I can't imagine ever building a model to meet some sort of artificial deadline. That's just not the way I see this hobby... but that's just me. Like Dennis Miller says... "I could be wrong."
