  1. Like this guy. The city is the one that should be on trial for not taking action on the potholes.
  2. Another great looking patina finish. A lot of extra little details here. The more you look the more you see them. Like the cloth bed side curtains.
  3. Very crusty looking finish. Like the chassis and interior details.
  4. Like the patina finish and the overall look. These types of builds make me smile.
  5. Beautiful paint color and finish. Cleanly detailed.
  6. Beautiful looking paint color and finish. Personally like the Magnum wagons, always wondered what it would look like with some wood trim.
  7. Great looking shade of blue. Like the clean body trim and the wheels.
  8. Great looking body work and paint.
  9. Might try some setting solution on the decals to see if they will lay down. They look like they will always be a flat finish unless you clear everything.
  10. Tamiya Finish polish might be a consideration as well.
  11. Years ago, and recently divorced I had the fender and door of a new Camaro kicked in while parked in front of where I was living. Could never prove it but would have been like her to do it.
  12. Everywhere you look the finishes are beautifully done and very realistic looking. The body color and the shades of the wood portions look like something from that time period.
  13. This build just looks so right the way you finished it.
  14. Like the chassis and the engine looks like the Trico Racing engines, not sure of the spelling.
  15. Road rage maybe? Might have made someone mad.
  16. The Revell 2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8 kit also has a Guitar in it along with some decals for the Guitar.
  17. Great looking paint color and finish. Nice looking interior. Like the engine detailing.
  18. Last night I stepped out on the patio to light the BBQ for some KC Strips and surprised a Possum that had been looking around in the dark. He didn't stick around for a picture. Don't know who was more startled, the Possum or myself. Had a raccoon sticking their head out of a culvert on the edge of the property last week. I think he is the one that has been raiding the bird feeder. Having had a little drought condition lately and the woodland creatures are getting hungry, along with the vocal Coyotes at night.
  19. Glad to hear that you are regaining your eyesight. I have been through much of the same issues as you and it is frustrating. As for your wheels for your Toyota, maybe looking around any "Pick in Pull" type auto recyclers in your area could be one place to look. Check the diameter of your bolt circle on the wheels and with that you may be able to find another style that you like if the original wheels can't be found.
  20. Smart move, safety first.
  21. Worms have a lot of Protin but are best if dipped in Chocolate.
  22. The interior castings I got from Calnaga fit perfectly and gave me two forward facing and two inward facing seats that are done in a tuck and roll pattern that match the kits side interior panels. Also included was an upholstered guard for the V-Drive unit. Something to consider anyway. The front deck to hull fitting is a little fussy.
  23. Beautiful looking paint color and finish. Clean looking body details. I think I would build one along the same lines as yours rather than the Bond Car.
  24. Remember seeing all the body work you had to do on this build. The finished body looks just like the 1:1 and I like the base wheel covers for the classic model line. The paint color looks great as does the finish.
  25. Like the addition of the boat as a pull toy for your truck build. I did one of the Hemi-Hydro boats a couple of years ago and used an interior and jet drive conversion from Calnaga Castings.
