Guys, I've since gotten the tires from mrm! I do believe they have the look that I was after..... The body is sitting on the tires in the pics, but will be higher once the tanks are in place........ -
Favorite Obscure or Discovered Music Album

Just heard of these guys today after reading that one of the members had passed. Haven't gotten too far into their catalogue, but this one is really good..... -
My first set of actual 'wheels' was the go-cart I had when I was about 10-13 years old...... It had the engine from a cement spreader ( !? ) and no brakes. The engine was so strong that it would eat the clutches that was between the drive gear and the crank..... The springs would burst out of them. Good, dangerous, deathtrap times..........

Hello, fellas........ I've been looking for a '36 Ford Coupe kit lately. I see a lot of versions all with different box art. I'm wondering..... Do all the releases have the same parts? I'm wanting to build it as a custom, so things like fender skirts, smooth hood sides, and the like are the main thing I would be concerned about....... Thanks for any and all help!

Here's one that our friend Mr. Kendall built into a mild custom...... I've been thinking of getting one myself to do something similar.

"Possible Mission that you have a chance of succeeding at" doesn't have the same bite to it as Mission Impossible........

Dusty, friend, you may have mentioned it already, but which DupliColor clear did you have the bad experience with? They have like four clears........ The best one is the Perfect Match in the small can, next best is the 1K clear in the large can........ The others are kinda hard to work with, and there's one ( acrylic enamel, I believe ) that has a work window, and will craze itself if not used in that window..... I ask because I've always gotten good results with DC clears, and I know you could too..........

Assume folks know nothing and you may be pleasantly surprised when they do, assume they know everything and you'll be gravely disappointed.......

Sorry I doubted you, man! I've sent you a message...... -
If you've got a couple of the '56 Ford Fairlane kits ( like most here do ), they could donate their very nice chrome reverse wheels meant for the gasser version......... The pic with the reverse wheels and dark cherry paint is really appealing! I have a pair of the chrome reverse from the '56........

Yea, I sent him a PM, and if his notifications are set it would have shown up in his email, too..... It's all okay, though! I've already had a friend offer to make some tires for me. -

Well, guys...... I guess Mozzi Mozzbourne here has shafted me on our one-sided trade. I sent him tracking last week and I have heard nothing since. What bites the most is I sent him the Beetle kit, so I don't have much in the way of trade fodder now....... People....... -
This movie actually had a pretty good soundtrack, as much as the movie itself sucked... Anyone a fan of Polly Jean?

This is going really good........ Have you decided on a color scheme yet? Black would look very formal..... I painted mine brown with a black and white interior.

Karaoke means 'tone deaf', which is both ironic and fitting.
