  1. Did they put the "squeeze" on you?
  2. Leave 'em off and call it a Custom...........
  3. The Smoothster was an AMBR winner! I didn't know that.......... Thank You for posting the parts trees. I know now that I need this kit........!
  4. Nice build, Jon........!! I'm wondering, how much of the chrome from the nose down the side of the body is separate pieces? Is some of it molded to the body? Thanks.....
  5. There's an episode of Miami Vice that has the white Testarossa chasing a '66 Porsche 906 thru the streets. I'd love to find a Bandai/Entex kit of the 906 for a good price, I would love to build one..........
  6. Thanks, Guys....... I've only built one Testors kit I believe, it was the new Charger. I'm hoping it's a fairly good kit, and from what you've said it should be.... Very nice, clean model, BTW!!
  7. I did a quick search and found nothing on this kit. Just wondering if anyone has built one of these, as I'm looking to get one. The body looks far from stock, and the chassis has all modern pieces......... Is it a good tool? Are there any quirks with this kit I should be aware of? Thanks for any info.............
  8. Model Roundup carries all three sizes, I believe...... Jack said the 1mm pens were selling out pretty fast....
  9. Well, Guys, it's been two months...... By now I should know all her faults/quirks. She's still as easy a dog as you could want...... She has a little edginess and anxiety around other dogs, probably has never been properly socialized. Here's a pic I took this evening, everyone tells me she looks 100% better since I've been taking care of her.... Sorry if it's a bit blurry, she's a bit camera shy!
  10. How about the roadster? I'd love to have another, but I see they are $45 where I usually order from............
  11. That's awesome that you got to see them live..... I bet they were really good, because they hadn't hit it mainstream yet........ as for your friends, they would love "Fell on Black Days", not much more Goth than that......
  12. Hey, Rob, I've sent you a PM...... I can help with the windshield.......
  13. Here's some progress for you guys! I'm working on stuff other than the body because I still need some half-round to run some trim....... Thanks for looking in..............
  14. Removing flash with a blade rather than sanding it would maybe help a bit.......... Cuts down on the dust........
  15. Sometimes you have to refresh the site page after sending a message for it to go thru......
  16. Nah, I addressed correctly, and the right postage was added, some folks like to say they had to pay a difference just to bugger with you........ I'll ask for photo proof of any postage due. The PO would stamp that on the envelope, right?
  17. That's kinda what I was thinking.... Thanks, Guys
  18. Question for you guys...... If I was to send someone a padded envelope and I didn't put enough postage on it, would it come back to me or would the recipient have to pay the difference? Let's say this hypothetical envelope was sent by a person from their work (maybe with my return address on it) ??
  19. Well, this sucks, man............ SoundGarden was one of the most influential bands of the '90s, always will be..........
  20. That's not a bad idea, Michael........ The thing that made me ask the question in, um....... question.... is the fact that this town is expanding at an alarming rate. In the past 5 years we've gotten a Taco Bell, Arby's, Walgreens, Hardee's, businesses that have been here a while are expanding, we've built a new jail..... They are even building an overpass out on the bypass.... All this money going into expansion is telling me within another 5 years we won't recognize the town any more! Just would be nice if someone saw what others see that owns a hobby-type store and thought we could use one................
  21. I've always liked these wheels.......... Were these ever used in a racing application, or were they just for street use?
  22. One NICE Get-X!
  23. Hey, John.... I've sent you a PM, friend............
  24. John, I believe all you're seeing is the shadow between the headlight buckets and the grill area.... looking at these pics I may go back and dig the glue out of the headlights and redo it...... Really, I'm more proud of the rear bumper, even tho the lenses don't fit the holes very well.........
  25. I guess I just got lucky and they turned out decent! I've been experimenting with different techniques for making a vinyl texture for the top.... that's the next challenge...... Thanks
