Kinda like the real car? LoL! I always liked the Avanti......

One would have to think that your engine ran extra cool that day.........

Thanks for the advice, guys....... Most likely I'll just use a scrap piece of sprue or something to mount the wheels......... There is a decal sheet, at least in this issue! More than likely I won't use them though........

Just a little more progress, fellas........ The frame was primed and painted, and once that dried I dry-brushed a bit of silver all over it. Also got the basic engine painted! I'm having to kinda hold off on putting the front suspension together, as I'm missing the little metal spindle posts that hold on the front wheels........ Also I am in need of the long metal axle for the rear. Does anyone have these that they might not need? Here's a pic of the part for the front wheels....... Anyways, that's what I have done today.......

It could be that he doesn't have that 'home field advantage' out on a walk.....

Yea, he kinda knows that he screwed up........ You can't really punish them after the fact, though. They more less need to be caught in the act. You can see he's a little ashamed in the pic!

How about I show you guys what my dog DID today...... I had to leave him at home alone for just a couple hours. I didn't want him to be in his crate the whole time, so I closed him up in my bedroom instead. Guess I'm gonna have to buy a door now! What can you do, though? Funny thing is, I've been either crating or putting him in the room so he doesn't chew any like, wires and such. He didn't bother Anything else! Just destroyed the door to get out and nothing else..............

I always look forward to your input, Carl! Wouldn't be the same without ya'........... I have made some progress on this! The basic engine and transmission are primed and ready for their flat green paint.... Also, I've been working on the frame and suspension bits. You can see the translucent plastic that was under the chrome......... Neither suspension is in place right now, just mocked up for the pic. That's where I'm at today, hopefully more progress in a few days..........

So did Neil Peart............

I really like that shade of blue, not something usually seen on a 'Vette! Is that enamel paint? Sometimes paint jobs need a compatible clear to give it some depth......

From instagram, I'd say the most used word, or acronym rather, is ASMR, where the most asked question would be 'what's that color?'........

Having to 'come down' off of the Percocet I've had to take since I hurt my wrist...... I have a very low tolerance for strong pain meds, as I just don't take them. I'm trying to tough it out and not have any more..... If you can't feel pain, you can't tell if you're causing more damage....

Bar me from saying it if you must, but Bill IS a good dude..............

......and you can always say 'Built, not Bought'!

Harper looks like a really good dog! (they all are really)... Emmett does the same thing, trying to get attention while I'm building.... They want us thinking about them as much as they think of us!

Feet smell, yet they have no nose........ Noses run, yet they have no feet!

Hello, guys! I recently got this kit through trading with another member....... It looks to be quite the kit! Kinda what I imagine a Fujimi EM model kit of this subject would look like. All the doors open, as does the hood.... Gonna build this completely stock! It has a couple of speed parts, but I don't plan to even use those.... Color scheme will be a gray hood and cowl with black fenders, and maybe ivory wheels. Here's the box art........... Right now I'm just trimming flash and such from some parts, not really much to show yet......... Anyway, I think this will be a neat little build to add to my collection! If anyone has built this kit, please show some pics! I don't think I've seen many of these built.....

The rest of my steak from last night with a stuffed bell pepper from a couple days ago..........

Persons of higher intellect than myself could come up with a better sentence than this one...........

There was even a Jeep TJ made for a while.................... How cool is that?

This kid, one of the newer neighbors, was harassing me with a darn RC toy from his second story window......... I kinda tripped and caught myself with my hand. It's just one of the smaller bones in my wrist, but it's one that will be tricky to get to heal properly........

Well, guys........ My building is gonna be a bit curbed for the next six weeks or so, at least until I get this cast on my right wrist taken off. Gravity is a beeyotch, and pavement unforgiving.........

Welding is fun to watch someone do, especially if they know what they're doing............

I really hope this is okay to add........ Roger was absent from the forums some time back, seems like he didn't post for maybe two or three years. When he did come back this last time, I sent him a PM saying 'Welcome Back' and 'We Missed You'....... I was so glad that he was back. He responded, and you could just about hear the enthusiasm in his text! He was soooooo glad to be back! You could tell that he missed the forums as much as we did/will him..........

That's got to be a rare car....... I don't think I've ever seen one! It would make for a cool kustom, too.........
