The Official EBay Discussion Thread
TooOld replied to iamsuperdan's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
When I sell on Ebay I always end the auctions on Friday night . If you pay right away I print a label on Saturday morning and plan on taking to the Post Office on Monday , that's only three days . If I sold multiple items and one buyer doesn't pay until Monday or Tuesday , then I take them all to the Post Office on Wednesday . . . your item just sat for five days . If I have several packages to go on Monday I'll do that but if only one or two it has to wait . Sorry but don't blame me for only wanting to make one trip to the PO , it has nothing to do with waiting for the payment to clear . -

Spent the last couple of weeks or so working on the interior , compared to this painting the chassis was a piece of cake ! My seat decals actually went on with no problems at all , much easier than expected , it was foiling the piping that I struggled with . Mainly because of the current issue with BMF , but I finally was able to piece it together with remnants from an old sheet . I figured spraying the door panels and seats with Dullcote would ruin the foil so I sprayed them with a Semi-Gloss clear , they still have too much shine so I may spray another coat . Other than that I'm happy with how the interior is looking . Along with using embossing powder for the carpet I made a heel pad using a technique by an unknown modeler that was posted by Steve Guthmiller .

Another beautiful Cobra and I love the Metallic Orange ! Never been a fan of huge wheels but those look fine to me , in fact I think 16" or 17" wheels look better on a Cobra than 15" wheels as long as the tires still have some sidewall .

Very cool idea and great execution ! Looks like it could have been on a 60's magazine cover !

Nice clean build , very well done ! Love the colors too !

Anyone deal with Motor City Resin Casters?
TooOld replied to gbtr6's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
You've always been among the best when it comes to the quality of your castings and your customer service and new customers may not be aware of this . . . Your health has to be your first priority right now . As a repeat customer I can wait until you've fully recovered , plenty of other projects going and never enough time . -
How are these printed ? Looks like they are printed on white decal paper with a color matched background . No faceshmuck here .

At the top of your post click on the three dots in the upper right corner , you'll see the option to edit your post . Then you should be able to copy and paste or delete the photos and repost them where you want them . Be aware that after a couple days , maybe three , you can no longer edit the post .

AMT 1970 Chevelle SS454. Yes it's Red w/Black Stripes and Interior.
TooOld replied to Dragonhawk1066's topic in Model Cars
Beautiful Chevelle and in my favorite color ! Everybody puts down these early kits as lacking detail and the "new" kits are sooo much better , but your build just shows that they can hold their own and even look better than the newer stuff .
