  1. Self confidence is something a lot of women find attractive, self centered is not..........
  2. That wiper motor looks great! I bet that you're doing a huge service to those restoring the classic cars......... Some folks would rather keep an original part instead of just replacing it.
  3. Wow! The pics here look soooooooo much better than on IG......... You can see just how Beautiful this build really is!
  4. "Crook in the road ahead" signs could be a good thing in a nimble sports car.......
  5. If you do decide to use foil, you can cut the long straight pieces right on the sheet...... Just use a straight edge ruler of some sort, and just use it to make long thin strips. That way there's very minimal cutting on your beautiful fresh paint!
  6. Poster sized pics of cars is what I had on my wall as a kid, along with pictures of artwork by Salvador Dali.......
  7. Whatever you do, man, don't try to lift the excess foil with the Xacto blade........ Use a sharpened toothpick or something kinda soft. One of my first foil jobs was a '61 Impala that like you I had painted silver. I was on the last piece of foil, and thought I could lift what was trimmed away with the blade...... I chipped the paint (of course...) and had to repaint....
  8. I AM........ working on another drawing! LoL.......
  9. Space-babes always bring to mind that old movie 'Amazon Women on the Moon', which as a movie was very silly.......

    Mopar!

    Who doesn't like a MoPar! These are really good......... They look like they could be brochure covers....
  11. I kinda think that the Monogram '37 Ford coupe and variants fall into the 'must build at least one' column. I've built three of the coupes myself. The time they were tooled in was a good time for autos in general, so there's those cool contemporary parts from the time.........
  12. Rhyming is funny in that two words can sound the same, thus rhyming, but be spelled different from each other........
  13. I thought they were all oil-stained underneath! That and axle grease............
  14. I have a model 'kit' that was 3D printed...... At the time it was the only way to get one of the subject that looked decent. I couldn't be happier with it! I plan on building it just like I would a plastic kit, only not with tube glue.
  15. Toupees aren't gonna be enough in a few years, I'll need Threepees to cover the cue.......
  16. Guys, this post in my post count is a palindrome! Number 4,774........... It reminded me of this fun thread! I hope y'all let me hang out here long enough to make that many more posts again..... Best Forum Ever..........
  17. Chicago the band had some really good music, one favorite being 'A Hit By Varese'.......
  18. I like using vinyl dye for interiors! I've used it on a few now...... It does have just the right shine to it! It looks and works better if you prime first.....
  19. Negativity is not only bad for you mentally, it can also take a toll on you physically.......
  20. Just something very formal, and 'sharp' about these cars with that combo.............
  21. Well, guys, we have a rolling chassis! I've decided to get back on this one.....
  22. Guys! You're never gonna believe this! Well, you might since I have pics..... I was able to add this kit to the to-do pile over the weekend! I ordered it Thursday and got it today, Tues. The release I have here is actually from Imai, but it's the same as the Bandai/Entex kit..... Complete with decals and instructions, still in it's bags! I can die now and feel complete, though I'd like to build the thing first.....
  23. Families that seem functional on the outside usually have a black sheep that knows better.
  24. All the exotics you've listed as seeing, and probably see those types of cars on the daily, and the high point of your day was an old station wagon! That's pretty cool...... Means you're a well-rounded car guy.
  25. Earth still has dinosaurs, just in the form of lizards and birds......
