Tell me about Duplicolor sandable primer
LVZ2881 replied to LDO's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I use the can on the left almost exclusively.....never had a problem with it. I am currently building the newest issue Revell Monte Carlo SS( just released this year!?!?), and have primed it multiple times, with no issues -
Tell me about Duplicolor sandable primer
LVZ2881 replied to LDO's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I use the filler primer, and love it.... usually use it as a filler for sanding scratches -

Reliable Resin...stripped!!!
LVZ2881 replied to Marc @ MPC Motorsports's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
my bad, the first pic didnt show the bars clearly...... also, when getting the 80/81 set up, dont forget the rear flares in front of the rear tires... and if you do get an 80/81 ready to go, it may just be my first resin body purchase, especially since keith marks has the decals already... -

I just noticed something, the grille for the 79 Z28 is wrong...it is an 80/81 Z28 grille... heres why: 1. the 79 grille would have vertical bars as well as horizontal bars to form a grid pattern. the 80/81 grilles have horizontal bars only... 2. the 79 z28 did not have a z28 emblem in the grille, only the 80/81 z's did. the 79 Z28 had a z28 decal on the nose right above the grille.... how do i know.... i have owned 2 different 1:1 79 Z28's, and 2 different 1:1 81 Z28's....and all the cars were 100% stock when i got them otherwise, the castings look good to me, and if i was at the point where i was ready in my building talents to tackle a resin body, i would order from don.. but, i just ordered my first resin hoods yesterday, so i'm not there yet.... -

I know about Eugene Toy and Hobby, so i'm looking mainly for the salem area ones. also, is there still that hobby shop in south albany right off the freeway, just west of the 5 ??
