    Great job Jim , it looks much better in blue than the one on the box !
  4. I agree completely . And you cut the decal at the panel lines !! Great job !
  5. Try using the " More Reply Options " and then follow Gregg's instructions . Or it could be a compatibility problem ( most likely ) . Click the little blue box next to the refresh icon .
  6. It's a MEL engine ( Mercury , Edsel , Lincoln ) introduced the same time as the FE engine . It's 430 Cubic inches .
  7. Beautiful ! Great looking paint and detailing . Did you add the filters inside the scoop or were they in the kit ?
  8. Now that is a very sharp looking model , excellent work !
  9. Took the words right out of my mouth ! The wash on all of the parts really brings out the details and makes a huge difference !
  10. I had to look since I don't remember the last time I saw you build a Cobra ! That kit looks very nicely detailed for a 1/43 scale kit . I've never seen one before , would you consider doing a review of it with some more photos ?
  11. Beautiful ! You really improved the look of this one ( I love Dusters ! ) .
  12. Cool ! I love models of cars we've owned or still own .
  13. Wow that's nice ! Is it a JoHan or resin ?
  14. Lookin' good Mike !
  15. You're right , it is each persons opinion as to the correct ride height . But the kit manufacturers( Revell ) usually get it wrong ! I think they know about it but can't justify the cost of a tooling change for something that is so easily changed by the builder . It's just like tossing the same old tires into every kit they make , although this is beginning to change recently .
  16. This kit can be built " stock " or custom , I'm sure the '69 kit can be too .
  17. Holy Cow ! That first photo's a real car right ?
  18. It looks awfully nice in primer ! Thanks Blair ! Maybe I'll do a W.I.P.
  19. This is really sharp !!
  20. I finally bit the bullet and spent over the century mark for this one !
  21. Time for some more fun in primer ! This is my current project . . . motivation will be a blown 327 Chevy !
  22. That does make sense . . . I usually have a good idea how much I'm willing to spend before I place my first bid and usually will place a max bid . Something about seeing " Reserve Not Met " just makes me look elsewhere . I understand what you are saying but if I place a max bid and it's not high enough I'm not going to keep bidding just to see what the reserve is ! What you are really saying is that putting a " Reserve " on an item makes some people think it's really a rare kit and they better bid higher than they planned if they want it !
  23. Occasionally I will come across an auction for a kit I would really like and get that message after bidding . Maybe it's just me but when I see that I quit bidding so I won't waste my time . Why don't they just start the auction at the minimum price they will accept ? Maybe they like seeing 24 people bid on their kit , but they still didn't sell it . Or maybe they're just curious as to it's value and don't intend on selling it at all ! Am I the only one who feels like this , or do I just not understand the reasoning for it ? What do you think ?
  24. Hey Dude !! Just came across this here . . . as said before it looks excellent , and the gold is a great touch !
  25. Beautifully done !
