My first major kitbash..... '71/'73 Chargers
JollySipper replied to JollySipper's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Little bit of progress, I got the engine bay mounted to the body......... Let's just hope it holds! And checking to see if the hood fits flush........... Thanks Guys, for your comments and for following along...........! -
Magnetic frustrations-
JollySipper replied to Jon Cole's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Flip one of them over, or switch one from each side to the other......... -
I bet the scooter has been chopped, sectioned, lowered, louvered, shaved and scalloped by now!

What I've done up to this point is to cut the engine bay from the '71 Charger..... I'll be using the chassis, engine bay, drive train, and such from the AMT kit. The interior won't be correct (the wood grain on the door panels is different between the two years) and I'll probably have to trim the bottoms of the door panels a bit. Gonna need to get some half-round for the trim around the top and along the rockers........ Wish me Luck, Thanks! -
I've been working on this some, thought I would show what I've got so far..... Trying to go for a "replica" of a car Dad recently got........ That's all I have for now.... Will show progress as I make it!

Interesting factoid about the Angler Fish.... The male is actually much smaller than the female, and is a parasite of sorts to her. He attaches himself to her and her body slowly absorbs him. That's how she becomes fertilized.......... Neat stuff!

He must have an affinity for the "Full Figured" autos........ Maybe likes his women curvy too!

PE headlight grills for '53 Corvette
JollySipper replied to TomZ's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
You may could go to your nearest pipe and cigar shop and get some mesh screens..... They're woven, not fixed, so they would shape easier than PE..... -
I've always liked the "ballad" type songs of theirs better than the speed metal stuff......... STR8 EDGE!

That started out as a '37 Ford..... I've thought about trying to model it using the Revellogram kit........

Big fan of Metallica, even bigger fan of their frontman's cars....... The Crimson Ghost is probably my favorite.....

Sad Sad Sad News: Our Harry Passed Away
JollySipper replied to Gregg's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Sad news indeed........... I think it would be appropriate to close down the forum for a day, as a moment of silence for our Friend, Harry....... -
Congrats, Jim! I hit a milestone of sorts myself recently with 1,500.........

What do YOU like about the MoPars?
JollySipper replied to JollySipper's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Wow, Walter! You have an A12 car.....! That's probably THE muscle car -
I once watched a sort-of documentary titled something like 'Hollywood vs reality' or along those lines..... They were showing how much "artistic license" they take when making movies. One instance that stuck with me was a Suburban driving thru molten lava without exploding!

Anyone have an English Bull Terrier?
JollySipper replied to JollySipper's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Thanks, Michael! I'm a little upset with the rescue that I got her from, tho....... They could have delivered her in a little better condition. She had green running out both eyes, and her claws are so long it is painful for her to walk..... We'll get her right, tho............. -
I was curious so I Googled it, but didn't want to give it away...........

You may as well keep your belly full, for the time may come when you rely on the layer of fat that separates you from the rabid dog and the common fly......
