  3. Little diodes make great fuel filters
  4. Thank you, I think at a hundred dollars a pop, i'll find another why,,
  5. Scale, i like to build models as close to, as i can, But one, NONE of the bodys are to scale, cause the thickness is off, if the bodys were 16ga sheet metal, they would be about .010 thousand thick, and 16ga wire would be about a hair, so to me its all up to what makes you happy, So what really is scale?? We could go on and on about scale,, Its a plastic model and you build it as close to, and as nice as, and half will love it, and half will not... Be cool, be happy, and get back to building.
  6. 30's Ford is perfect no matter how its done,,I've seen rat rods, to Show cars,, and there the Best looking car around But how you build it,,is all up to the owner. what one likes, the other hates,,
  7. Does anyone make the Aurora 1935 gilmore special in resin, or cars of that era. looked though this form, but didn't see any. Looking for the Old indy racers, and midgets. The Aurora models that i have come across, have a Un-godly price tag... Thank You
  8. i hit up all the goodwill stores, swap shops, flea markets, and whatever else to find a deal or a box of junk..
  9. I agree BECAUSE, i do 1/24 cause most stuff can be moved, changed, redone, and its to scale, like if i want to put a big block in a 32 coupe, its to scale, and a lot to pick from,, 1/12 i can get more detail, but harder to find the parts ya want. Ho, and 1/32 is to small for my old eyes to see anymore..
  10. in my bedroom, on a cheap table i found in the trash,, run outside spray paint the body tell paint was dripping off it,, and back to my room to finish my finger printed glue bomb that i was so Proud of, cause i built it myself,,,,I've gotten a little better at it over the last fifty years.........
  11. Go to www.daararacing.com , A.J. Watson, Bill Wendt, and a couple more have that Watson at Booneville. As we speak,. Hoping to set a new land speed record with it,,, Pictures of it being built in there also... Bill Wendt already set a land speed record last year in a Midget...

  13. My Worst moments,,,my youngest 31. been in the army 13 yrs,,been in war twice,,and Three (3) times i got letters from his commander saying he's in Germany, and he will be OK,, Thank God he was,, And now there going to send him again,,, Good Lord give me a Break.. Pray for our Troops..
  14. We have 7 kids, all grow up and gone, and next month will be 16 grandkids, and what bothers me the most, is i don't know were all that time went,, Feel like i missed 20-30 yrs there some how.. Its like the older i get, the fast time goes by... So, enjoy each and every second you can, the grandkids get older and forget who you are. The kids stop calling cause they have there own life. And i sit here building models, and talking to my Dogs,,
  15. Great Job Doc.. i see a lot of good stuff come with them decals,,,
  16. Thats one reason the show went off the air,,they wrecked 6-8 cars per film clip..
  17. I use to be a die hard nascar fan from way back,,but since nascar went COT, and there is no such thing as ford, chevy, dodge. toyota anymore, I just lost interest in it,, its a real shame they cann't go back to what Nascar was.. I look at it as one more decal missing from the sport,,,, RIP Mopar, How about Nissau, VW, Saab, ? Jagaur won once in the 50's, maybe we can get them back?
  18. Cann't wait to see it,, Pics of my 1/24 supermod..

  24. Use to work on them in the Army,,everything had detroits in them..If you didn;t adjust the injector rack prefect, you would crank it up, and they work run away on ya,, and a 8V-92 could screeeem,, so you throw the big thick manual book over the intake,, to kill it,, you ever see a book get sucked in and blowed out the exhaust,,it make a mess of a engine,,, Lucky uncle sam had spares..LOL
