Beautiful looking 300. The white color looks clean and crisp. Great chrome trim,

Beautiful looking little Nova. Great paint and the interior is well detailed. The engine is kind of the center of the build to me anyway.

Great looking Charger. I like the paint color and finish. I'm still waiting for my retinas to return to normal.

Interior and chassis look good. What color are you painting the body or are you going with the TV based theme?

Your problems mounting the bumpers and grill are fairly common. For whatever reason kit makers don't offer real positive mounting points for these parts, What I have done in the past is to add small strips of plastic to the inner body to give these parts a positive mounting point and a good glue joint. This way the part is held in place with the minimum of glue and little chance of getting glue on the exposed surfaces.

I like the stance. This model in other guises has been offered with a Hemi so this should fit.

Color and finish lookk good. Reminds me of the Rally Green color GM offered.

Crew Cab 1 ton Duelly 4X4 and I bet there is a 454 under the hood. In perfect tune, down hill, with a tail wind and a light foot you might break 10 mpg.

I'm not in the market, but I can see why so many like or want one of these new sized pickups. I was always a fan of the 1/2-ton short bed style pickup and have owned several in the past. These trucks have gained so much in overall size and look more like a giant Tonka Toy and are priced like a high-end luxury car.

I haven't done figures or people's faces, but I did see an article done on this subject. What I found interesting was the way the writer described the different tones and textures he used in painting the subjects face, arms, and hands. This was in a magazine that centered on mainly military subjects that I received instead of the car modeling magazine that I had subscribed too.

I still use tape. I'll do all the edges and detail taping with the Tamiya tape and use the blue stuff that you would use to mask the trim when painting in your home. Depending on the type of paper used some will actually absorb paint and can in some instances allow some to pass through to the protected surface. Taping off and engine compartment can use up a lot of tape as well, but I would rather spend some money on the extra tape than have to go back and redo other finished surfaces. I guess it's just how much your time is worth to maintain a finish.

Great looking stock Broncho.

Something to consider whenever you're in multi lane traffic. I always look to see if the other driver is looking in their rearview or sideview mirrors, if they're not there is a good chance they don't realize you are even in the next lane. Try and avoid lingering in their blind spot if possible. I also watch where their tires are in relation to the painted lines. Many drivers will drift back and forth in their lane like an old pak man game.

Deep rich looking black paint and clean trim details. The copper one looks much the same, both great looking builds.

Sounds like your children will have a fighting chance to make you a grandfather someday. Far too few have the basic knowledge of vehicle dynamics that you have described.

Great looking paint finish and the open sunroof adds a lot to the appearance.

Beautiful looking wagon. I like the theme of your build. The covered interior is a nice touch as well.

Sometimes called cleansing of the gene pool.

I agree, great looking paint work. Nice interior and wheels and tire details.

Try explaining this to your commanding officer.

I like the kid in the soap box derby car in the back.

Around here you don't dare step out into the cross walk unless you have made eye contact with the on coming cars driver. Even then there is no guarantee that they are going to allow you to use the cross walk.

A lot of the bad and even dangerous drivers I see in our area aren't the young so much as the middle aged drivers. Unfortunately their teen age children are observing their driving and start to think that is normal. This sort of driving perpetuates it's self.

Taking your hand off the steering wheel while trying to avoid an accident? There used to be an old saying for that, "The bind leading the blind" or "Monkey see monkey do".

A little off subject but. Why are the rules governing exterior vehicle body shapes and designs not to mention numerus operating functions on new cars to compensate for drivers' inability to safely operate their motor vehicle, but nothing is being done to make the operator more aware of their responsibility as a driver?
