  1. Thought you guys would have fun discussing some of the "new" words and phrases that have emerged lately...... "Bump-Dialing" I'll get a call occasionally and it's someones Smart Phone in their purse or pocket calling...........
  2. Thanks for the kind comments, Friends......! In the next day or so I should have the chassis finished........
  3. For you guys who have this kit in your to-do pile, there isn't any way to positively locate the exhaust until you attach the frame to the floor pan. The locator holes are on the pan itself......... Also got the engine bay painted the color the car is going, Dark Shadow Gray from Dupli-Color.......... Thank You for looking, and for any comments.......
  4. Thanks, espo.....! That's a pretty good idea, using the supplied decals to make new ones....... Speaking of decals, if anyone wants the Law Enforcement decals from this kit, you are welcome to them..... just shoot me a PM and I'll send them to you.....
  5. Thank You, Paul......! I plan on a dark gray metallic with either a red or a tan interior, may need some feedback to help decide on the interior.
  6. Got the frame painted, and the engine in place..... Also I was curious as to how the wheels were going to sit in the front. Not as low as I would like, but I'll probably leave them like they are.......... Thanks for looking in, and any comment is welcome......!
  7. We'll just say I'm doing a custom.....! Thanks Harry, I'll see what I can do to fix it..................
  8. Thought I would show you guys what I'm working on at the moment...... Going to be straight from the box except for the wheels and tires Those are from the '37 Ford coupe........ Thanks for any interest, and all comments are welcome.....!
  9. Hey, Jon........ You could try laying some blue painters tape along where you are trying to foil, then apply the foil, trim, then just lift the tape....... it should remove the excess foil along with protecting the paint......
  10. Hey, Friend....... You should watch the episode of The Simpsons titled "Make Room For Lisa".... Her and Homer spend some time in sensory deprivation tanks, where she realizes that Homer actually loves her........ An excerpt from Wikipedia about the episode: To make things up to her, Homer takes her to a local New Age store which introduces Homer and Lisa to water-filled sensory deprivation tanks, where they experience their own spiritual journey. On her journey, Lisa sees herself from Homer's perspective, reprimanding him for snoring during a ballet recital. Lisa realizes that despite his boorish personality, Homer loves Lisa enough to take her to events and places that he does not personally like just so she can be happy.
  11. How many blondes does it take to change a lightbulb? One to hold the bulb, five to turn the ladder..... How many Psychiatrist does it take to change a lightbulb? Just one, but the bulb has to really want to change........ How many hill-billys does it take to change a lightbulb? What's a lightbulb............??
  12. I would buy everyone here their holy grail kit........ Then I'd purchase a couple '63 Max Wedge Plymouths, one all original and one with power steering, disc brakes and such, for a cruiser.........
  13. Hey, Friend....... I like to use DupliColor Perfect Match paints, and also the clear. You can get it at a reasonable price at your local auto parts store. Buying up the detail paints that you will need may get a little expensive, but these paints will last you for many projects...........
  14. I adopted a pooch today! She's only 8 weeks old. Here she is crashed out after some rigorous play time.......... Got her from the local shelter....
  15. That's nice..........
  16. http://www.modelroundup.com/product-p/rmx-1509.htm Here's one from Model Roundup.......... it says they only have a few left, hope this helps!
  17. This is a song by a group I just recently discovered called the Seratones........ You guys should check them out, they have a good sound! This song is called "Get Gone"..........
  18. Mila Kunis, mentioned earlier in this thread, has two different colored eyes! She was voted the Sexiest Woman Alive by Maxim magazine in 2012.......
  19. PJ Harvey was pretty cool in the 90's....... She had a Blues/Alternative sound going on.......
  20. Sun's coming up, Like you knew it would, Sun's coming up, Like you knew it would, He'll come around, Like you knew he would, He'll bring you down, Like you knew he would..............
  21. "Fish On" by Primus............
  22. The preacher at a little country Church was known for his short sermons. Every Sunday his lessons would end at 12:30 on the dot. This one particular Sunday, though, he seemed to be running a little long. An hour sermon turned into two, then three. Finally he stopped to catch his breath, then the congregation asked him Why the long sermon? The preacher said, "Well folks, I didn't mean to keep y'all here for so long, but this morning I grabbed my wife's teeth by mistake, and now I can't stop talking......."
  23. Thanks for the info, Steve...... Does anyone know anything about the 1/16 Bandai/Entex kit? The box reads that it is full detail, but I've read elsewhere where it's meant to be motorized........? Again, thank you for the help......
  24. Thanks, Brian, for the extra insight! The more I research this car and it's kits, the more I'm liking the 1/16 kits.......... especially if the Arii one is not full detail. Thanks, guys....!
  25. I think this one turned out pretty good...............
