  1. How about the roadster? I'd love to have another, but I see they are $45 where I usually order from............
  2. 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......
  3. Hey, Rob, I've sent you a PM...... I can help with the windshield.......
  4. 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..............
  5. Removing flash with a blade rather than sanding it would maybe help a bit.......... Cuts down on the dust........
  6. Sometimes you have to refresh the site page after sending a message for it to go thru......
  7. 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?
  8. That's kinda what I was thinking.... Thanks, Guys
  9. 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) ??
  10. Well, this sucks, man............ SoundGarden was one of the most influential bands of the '90s, always will be..........
  11. 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................
  12. I've always liked these wheels.......... Were these ever used in a racing application, or were they just for street use?
  13. One NICE Get-X!
  14. Hey, John.... I've sent you a PM, friend............
  15. 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.........
  16. 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
  17. Thanks, John! I put a little elmers glue over the headlights so they wouldn't look like just chrome.......
  18. A quick update for you guys! This is the ride height from the box pretty much, I only flipped the front spindles so it would sit in the lower position..... Also have the bumpers detailed.......
  19. Here lately I've been discovering that we get what we Need when we NEED it though....... May not be what we want but we don't go entirely without....
  20. I've deleted the message but the pic is still under my attachments.... No big deal, just found it curious..............
  21. Is there no way to delete attached pics? I put one in a PM and wanted to delete it........... Sorry!
  22. Hey, Bob....... I believe there may be a member or two here that meet in Fayetteville.... Maybe if I ask nicely, they could pick up some things for me at their next meeting?
  23. Thanks for the responses......! There's no chance of me opening my own "shop" as I live in a small apartment....... I think that a hobby store could do good here. There's plenty of stay-at-home moms who could benefit from a craft section, maybe some RC stuff for the kids.... Paints and styrene for builders......
  24. Hey, Guys..... I live in a small rural town in south east North Carolina. Those from here probably know of Elizabethtown...... We have absolutely no kind of hobby shop! If it wasn't for Wally World and the parts stores, I would have to order all my supplies online....... How can I convince a chain to put a small hobby store in this town? or even a "Mom & Pop" shop would be nice.... Thanks for any input............
  25. I just had to see what the bronze paint looked like and how it sprayed...... I'm not disappointed at all with it... Also got the basis of the engine done....
