heatride

Well maybe I am extra weird ( been back in the hobby about 6 months now ) after a 30 year absence , but i just wish THEY WOULD LEAVE THAT UGLY TOY LOOKING CHROME PLATE OFF ! Ok now im calm again , I strip every piece its like a do over .......

I didnt even know they made such a critter as that ! Man I been out of this hobby way to long ...

I used to ride bikes a LOT the kind with pedals and down here its hot in the summer . I would tell my wife I was off for a heatride . And it just kinda stuck .

Thanks for the tip Marcos ! Gonna use that one ..........

I understand the honey dew list and yard work ! Great Build Don Thanks for sharing .......

LOL Virgil you gonna make Jim pop a vain ! ............

Welcome aboard Randy ! Thats some beautiful builds and a fine looking dog ......

Welcome aboard !

Between Virgil and you oldman I am keeping the freight guys busy ! Just ordered 2 of these and there was that 64 GTO well while I was ordering it was calling my name ....

What Harry's post is saying (NOT HARRY) although he may be thinking it dunno is at this time it would actually be the time to purchase , because you can bet your last model the exchange rate WILL NOT stay like this . But then again I am a redneck cajun take it for what its worth ......

LOL good one Danno but I don't think she has to many secrets left the with those cloths !

Well with a clockmaking background and jewelry repair this might really sound weird but then again maybe not . You can scatter a clock all over the house and I can pick up the parts and have it running in about a hour maybe 2 . The reason being the parts are so precise like you folks are talking about. That being said I like the plastic models because its so different . Its fun getting things that don't fit to fit. I admire the quality of those high end kits but the plastic jobs are just a blast . And for the record I really don't see were much of what I did comes into play with the models .

I have used plastic-models.com with good results . ( Its Tower Hobby ) I was gonna use model roundup for this last order but Doc had me so dang excited about those Cobras that I had the order placed before I realized it !

Doc your killing me ! I just ordered 2 of those kits My wife loves those Cobras so naturally I had to have em it was like the green light .......

Welcome aboard James , I also took a 30 year leave of absence and been back in the hobby about 6 months now . The stuff they have now glues , BMF , air brushes , its just amazing , and the talent of these guys . I am constantly getting ideals and most anyone here is willing to help on everything from vender's to howtos .

Erik somehow I missed your first post , seems to me your the kind of person they need to talk to .

LOL yeah guess so but surely not a classic Harry

Manny my grandson just loves this one and yes I do also . But as Jim says shiny RULES !!

I really enjoy your post and enthusiasm ! But Doc your turning my own Grandson to the RUSTY side . I showed him some of your work and he said thats cool pawpaw , oh the shame of it all My own kinfolk likes rust !

Ed one of my best friends lives in Pennington Gap I will ask if he has time , if nothing else for moral support .

I used to role over get up and go to work. I'm retired now all I do is roll over I have been out of the hobby for 30 years , asked my wife the other day how did I get all this stuff around the house done when I was working so much . She gave me this crazy look and said honey you didn't I did I'm in the same boat as Rich and Mike , I just have the time now that I didn't when I was working .

After so many years in business (Not Models) I would HIGHLY recommend for you to take your time . Do your research and ask more then one source for there input . If you can sale them with the mindset each model has its OWN price you will probably do a lot better then I will take X amount for the entire lot . If you have the time and can post pictures on here there are people (and I am not one of them) that can and will tell you that you have a highly collectible or just a average model.

That is just 3D art on a grand scale Doc ....

LOL thats a fact Danno got to have that ! ......
