  1. And Corvettes and Cadillacs. Mason drove a Caddy in the early season one shows, and Drake had a Corvette in some episodes too. (I have all the seasons...one of my favorite shows ever...especially the delectable Della)
  2. And then there's the cow-induction hood.
  3. I always thought this woman was most beautiful at this point in her career.
  4. Pretty much where mine is too, Miles.
  5. I use PVA white glue. It dries totally clear, it's entirely strong enough to hold wires in drilled holes, and it's about the easiest to use with zero fear of buggering paint or getting a CA haze. Honestly, if you drill your plug holes pretty deep, you don't need any glue at all...especially if you drill the holes to be only a couple thou larger than your wires.
  6. The clown in the video refers to the 1:1 stupid sky-high-nose "gasser" built on one of these as "Art Deco". It ain't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Deco I wonder what killed the model deal. I was kinda looking forward to getting a couple for meselves.
  7. I've got a Pyro Gee Bee I need to get motivated on. It's an easy build, but it keeps getting bumped. (The box says 1/32, but it's not. The pilot figure is 1/32, but the actual plane scales out to about 1/26 or so.)
  8. Anybody recognize this little number?
  9. I can certainly understand hurting so bad and wanting to end it, but to make it someone else's horror and transfer the pain to an innocent 3rd party is inexcusable, the definition of selfish wallowing-in-self-pity.
  10. I'm thinking there must be a link between the open-kimono concept and the identification and accessing of low-hanging fruit... Forgive me if I'm stating the obvious, but I'm not a native business-speaker.
  11. I think any woman driving a convertible while shaving rates at least that. Gives a whole new meaning to "multitasking".
  12. And for an extra point...
  13. I just love to hear office twinks using phrases like "war room" to describe their highly 'stressful' workplaces, too. WAR room? Really? Ever seen war up close and personal? It doesn't have much in common with a day spent sitting on your butt, yapping on the phone and staring at a monitor while you drink bottled sparkling water and lattes.
  14. Any luck at all, it was one of the little thieves in the video.
  15. Coming together nicely.
  16. Good lines, flows well.
  17. Use white PVA glue, no problem. It's a non-solvent based adhesive so it won't attack detail. Plenty strong enough to hold lenses, dries to be absolutely invisible if you use it right...and it's easy.
  18. Hmmmm...no idea, but I do see styling elements from several more familiar cars, so maybe that's a way to find it.
