  1. Congrats & hope you stay smoke free. Quitting is easy, l've done it hundreds of times! The 1st was when they reached $1.00 a pack. Now l pay over $5.00 per. My lungs & wallet are ready, just have trouble getting my head wrapped around it!
  2. For the white letters on tires, try white pastel sticks (think art supplies). Trial & error til you get it right. Then clear coat whatever sheen you prefer for your tires. Pastel sticks better than chalk. Bart.
  3. Cool build! You nailed the '70s look. Ahhh, this brings back alot of good memories. Did you put pin-hole burns in the upholstery, lol? Bart.
  4. l have the Revell '62 Samba bus cuz l love these old vans. Considered closing in all the windows to make it a panel. l guess that's why it's still in the closet,lol!
  5. Gotta get one of these kits! Love the "skunk stipe". Makes it unique. Bart.
  6. I agree with th blue. Beautiful. Any motor shots? l was wondering if it has the Chevy 427? Bart.
  7. Very tasty, Jim! Looks nice & SHINY!! l love this kit, & you did a bang up job on it. Glad to see you're having fun with your new toy(s). Peace (or not!). Bart.
  8. Looks better every time l see it.
  9. VERY cool. Hope to get this kit soon. l love the stance & the simple, functional engine & bay. Nice work. Bart.
  10. Very interesting. l wouldn't have thought of this scheme, but l gotta admit, she wears it well! Bart
  11. What l did was hold it under hot as you can stand tap water twisting slightly then hold under cold to set. l had to do it afew times to get it right, but it worked. lt's pretty brittle, so twist SLIGHTLY!!!! Bart.

    Very nice job on an excellent kit! l've been putting mine off because of the BMF involved. Your foiling looks great! Bart
  15. Beautiful replica & tribute! Too many details to take in at once, l will have to read the workbench thread to soak it all in. Very impressive! Bart.
  16. How about Tom Daniel's street fighter. I heard it was reissued with the original box art. lt was my 1st kit when it was new. l have one on the way, but still haven't seen it yet.
  17. About as pretty a car as l've seen. Excellent replica. Bart.
  18. This looks so cool, l actually dreamed about it! They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so l hope you won't mind-l'm gonna use a scrap '68 Camino & a glue bomb Fireball & give it a go! Not an exact copy, but that's what l got,lol. Please continue. lf Joker's correct, you're gonna have a beatiful tandem! Bart.
  19. This might actually be better than the 442 Monkey cage.
  20. That's as real as it gets! This could take a while, l'm glad l got in at the beginning! Bart.
  21. That is SCARY mean looking! & yet beautiful at the same time. Hmmmm. Sounds like my wife. l'm glad she's not that fast! Bart
  22. I've only used it once on bare plastic & got a perfect paint job. l'm guessing l got very lucky as since then l've heard that's a no-no! l would follow the above advice. l certainly will from now on. Bart.
  23. I'll be watching, too, Bryan. I have the '68 kit l'll be building along similar lines someday. Should be very interesting. Looking great so far. Bart.
  24. I'll watch this, too. I love the car & am curious about the kits possibilities. Please, carry on.
