  1. In the first two pictures of this Buick, there is a lot of resemblance to the early Buick Y-Job show car.
  2. From what I have heard the Jo-Han and early kits should sell well. Good luck dealing with the insurance companies on the flood damage. They tend to paint a glorious picture of what they will do to protect your valuables when selling you their policy and treat you like you had nothing when you have a claim.
  3. All of the colors and finishes look great to me. I like how you got the slight blush of her cheeks.
  4. Great looking Drag cars with a storied past. Like the way you put them together with the hauler and trailer.
  5. Beautiful paint finish and color combination. Like the detailed looking engine and red inner fender liners.
  6. Beautiful looking paint finish and like the color. With the clean looking body trim this is very realistic looking in the pictures. Like seeing the big beauty with the redline tires.
  7. Solvaset may help on the really small decals where the dash gauges have raised features on them.
  8. The Hobby Lobbies here in the KC Metro seem to only offer the 40% off every other week. Haven't seen any really special pricing on their closeout area for a couple of years now.
  9. Beautiful paint color and finish.
  10. Some great buys. Where do you shop for kits?

    Golf Import Rat

    Like the realistic looking patina finish.
  12. Beautiful paint color and finish. Like the clean body with no vinyl roof or body trim.
  13. Love the smooth dark maroon paint finish. Great looking engine and details on the chassis.
  14. Depending on the alignment of the upper and lower mounting pins for the spindles they can in some instances be swapped from one side to the other and turned upside down to lower the front end. The big sticking point would be where they meet the upper and lower control arms, and the tie rod ends. Sometimes you can just redrill the mounting point on the upper control arms so that the wheel and tires are in the correct alignment.
  15. Great looking finishes and congratulations on getting those decals down. I bought one of these kits a while back, and as you pointed out the door problems was the reason I have put off doing anything with it yet.
  16. Beautiful looking tribute build. Show winning finishes and detailing everywhere you look.

    Meyers Manx

    Great looking paint finish looks just like the gelcoat metal flake of old. Nice engine detailing. The contrasting color interior and top look good against the blue body.
  18. Very natural looking finishes.
  19. Great looking paint color combination and finish. like the chassis detailing.
  20. We used to call these conversions the "Blue Hair Specials".
  21. We like comedies and adventure movies. We recently dropped the AT&T cable because of all the reruns and no new content. Went with Amazon Prime and a small receiver we got at Walmart. Now we're watching all the old "Coupling" and "Waiting for God" from the BBC along with "Reacher" and a few others for a fraction of the cost of AT&T.
  22. Like the monochromatic paint finishes and the stance.

    69 Camaro

    Like the paint finish and color along with the stripes. The wheel treatment you mentioned is in keeping with the contemporary style.
  24. Great drive line swap that would make sense on a 1:1 Cord. Like the paint color and clean body lines. The interior is a good compliment to the paint finish.
