Why?

The car is a 1922 Detroit Electric. The fact that there's no grille should have been a big clue!

The red ink just means that I'm important!

According to their website, Magic Mart only operates in small parts of four states: Kentucky, Virginia, W. Virginia and N. Carolina. Do they sell moonshine accessories?

I had to move this, it was posted under "Tips, Tricks & Tutorials." Hey, mr. cheap... have you noticed how the forum is conveniently broken down into categories so that we can find stuff easily?

BTW... your next Resin column is due...

MCM. 1,900...

Actually he looks a bit like you!

I believe it is...

If I Tell You What It Means Will You Buy Me A Drink?

Preassembled would definitely be the way to go...

Yep, those are definitely in the ballpark... but missing the springs! The springs are what makes them work, and even if the scale ones were just operated by friction and didn't actually need the springs, without the springs they look fake.

Hey, wait a minute! I like the Dixie Chicks!

I dunno... they say flat gray is slimming...

And he's going to spray that booty...

True... but I'm thinking that a generic set of fully operational hinges would sell like hotcakes. Certainly they'd be more true-to-life than what most kits offer... which is nothing!

DM models are freakin' amazing! You should see this thing. I have no idea how they do it, the detail level is just amazing.

I just got my latest Danbury Mint model, a 1956 Buick Roadmaster Riviera. As per usual, DM's detail and quality is absolutely second to none... this model is gorgeous! Well worth the price and then some. But this isn't a commercial for DM. As I was looking over the model, a thought struck me: DM uses "real" hood hinges in all of their newly-tooled models. That is, they are "scissor-type" hinges, with operational tension springs... and they really work (and look) exactly like the 1/1 hinges do. Check out this photo: So I'm thinking... wouldn't this be a cool aftermarket product? I think a lot of people would be interested in a pair of such detailed, functioning hinges. If DM can do it, so can anyone else, right? I mean... we already have detailed pre-wired distributors... photoetched detail sets... seat belt hardware, battery clamps, braided hose, etc., etc. Who is going to step up and be the first to offer fully functional, real scale hood hinges? Any takers?

Hey Skip... ia that your daily driver???

What scale are these, and who makes the kit?

Very cool! The two of them look great side by side. Is the "brass" trim on the race version painted? Love the engine detail... nice job! But where is the five point racing harness???

It's expected to sell for over $10 million. Somehow I don't think the next owner will do that...
