TooOld

This is a new site that has only been up and running for about a week . It is for building and showing older kits ( pre '81 ) and re-issues of those kits . That inludes cars , planes , boats , spacecraft , and any kind of scratch built model. They also concentrate on the model itself , not how much detailing was done or how shiney the paint is ! The really neat thing is you can post photos directly from your own files without using photobucket or what ever ! Right now the car guys are out numbered by the airplane crowd , but maybe some of you might be interested in joining ? Check it out and decide for your self ! www.retroscalemodeling.lefora.com

Great idea Doc ! You can count me in , I have several kits that are molded in color . Choosing one will be the hard part !

Great restoration ! Love to see old glue bombs brought back to life ! Just a suggestion , try taking your close up shots without the flash . Once you get the lighting right the pictures will look much better . And if you are running Windows it's easy to adjust the brightness levels .

Really nice work ! What part of Fla ?

Really nice work Brandon ! Great detailing and the look is perfect .

I really like where you are headed with this . The suspension mounts and sub-frame connectors look great ! What about the front brace on the K-member ? All hemi cars had them , but maybe you won't need it , your K-member looks pretty strong !

Turned out awesome , Mike ! I followed your build and know the problems you had , sure am glad you didn't ive up !

The lenses on your Avalanche are polycarbonate not styrene . VHT paints are usually very hot lacquers so be sure to test it first !

Thank You Harry ! That's so easy that I feel pretty stupid .

Thanks Casey . Signed out . Signed in . Still no side bar .

It shows events , birthdays , etc . . . on the main page . How do I get it back ?

Beautiful ! Best looking example of the PL kit I've seen .

That's really nice ! Probably the best I've seen ! I like the changes you made , especially the single headlights ! Great build .

Beautiful Mustang !

I don't even know whay kind of car it is ! Guess I'll crawl back under my rock . . .

Wow , that was fast ! Love the dragster chassis and the fade job , but you'll have to explain the intake !

Great restoration ! It looks super nice in that color , and the blue dots are cool !

You're off to a good start ! This is a great looking car and a nice change from all the dueces .

Thanks Austin ! I've been working on another kit for a while , but started putting the stripes on the Ranchero yesterday . The first one was looking pretty good when I screwed it up ! Situation normal , decals don't like me . Knowing I had to order another set anyway I decided to try painting them . Just finished them this morning , not perfect but I think I'll keep them !

Very , very nice ! ! Your color choice turned out great . We are probably in the minority , but I really like these Big Birds !

I think it looks great ! A real daily driver ! Don't feel bad , for such a simple little kit , this thing can drive a person nuts ! Does anyone else hate the tiny taillights in this kit ?

There actually was such a cobra built , but was pushed aside when the Daytona Coupe was started . At least one was campaigned for quarter mile drags . Here's a photo of one of them .

I saw it, but they are in a light gray and can't be clicked on , so I ignored them . Probably another computer thing . The Users List is at the very bottom of the main forum page .

Now that is just plain cool ! Excellent idea , and well executed .

Not that unusual . I have a supercenter less than 2 miles away and a regular store 4 miles away in the other direction . I never shop at either one !
