  1. If you don't find it some companies offer a replacement policy for lost peices or parts that were somehow omitted during the injection molding process
  2. Very nice it looks so different than what you started with
  3. Not all amt kits are bad, in fact I have had good results with most of the kits I have built. It really has to do with what kind of kits you build, most of the car kits go together well but I have had bad results with planes and semi trucks. It also has to do with the age of the kit you are building, I have better results with older amt kits in comparison to the newer kits
  4. I just love these classic movie / show cars they have a very interesting look about them
  5. I remember back in the nintys there were a series of go cart hot rods built by ed roth, recently I found a very odd and vintage engine that came off a david bradley tractor I plan on airbrushing it and building a go cart show rod around it. Does anyone remember these go carts or have a picture of them? One of them was a rat fink rod, another was based on a wheel barrel, anothe was based on a wagon. What I wanted to do was base mine around a sixties or fifties booster car seat.
  6. Great design it looks cool
  7. I have watched alot of episodes of top gear and it seems they enjoy bashing Americans, our cars, and our culture.
  8. I am also part of this contest and am thinking of posting multiple builds to the contest. But right now I am working on a li'l gypsy wagon kit, I plan on super detailing it and weathering it
  9. cool bus, I used to have a s'cool bus but I sold it after I got into muscle cars
  10. What I have noticed was that some companies like Round Two were reissuing interesting kits at a rapid pace every quarter. But recently they have basically stopped reissuing all kits, now I rarely look to see if any interesting kits are coming. If I ran a model company I would get the customers' opinions', I would come onto sites like model car magazine, scale auto, or coffin corner and get their views on what should be reissued. Than I would make a decision based on feedback, or I would come on the model forums with a list of cars that are up for reissue and ask their opinions. I have found that in the past companies like Rc2 started to become unpopular after they kept reissuing kits that people weren't happy with.
  11. It looks original from the way the plastic was formed around the kit
  12. It looks very nice
  13. The builds look great, I have a few vintage amt 32 fords in my stack of cars that I now want to go put them on my bench
  14. This car reminds me of the zingers, I remember back in the day I had all of them but had to sell them when my collection got to large
  15. Cool build ira I have been following your build on coffin corner and am thinking about posting a build myself
  16. I herd about this forum on another site and thought it looked very good. Over the past few months I have been looking at builds and and have been amazed by the quality of them. Just reciently decided to create an account.
