    Nicely proportioned females are part of what I'm most thankful for on a daily basis, and remarkably, some of them will still smile at me rather than running screaming.

    I dunno, but wouldn't it be cool if cats were really that big compared to trucks? Sure would clean up the human gene pool in a hurry.

    Thanks for posting the pix. I have a beautiful resin stocker to build, assuming I ever finish this one...

    Love the car. Crown Vics are great. I had one retired from the GSP with minor front body damage, but it got away mysteriously from the shop where it was stored. Do the neighborhood kids call you the Dos Equis Cop?

    One of my favorite kits, of one of my favorite cars. Keep her a-goin'. That black roadster is an absolute knockout.

    You're one of the few builders whose work is regularly difficult to distinguish from the real thing, even when carefully examined. I never tire of seeing what you can achieve in this scale, and I'm always inspired. Congrats for your well deserved recognition.

    Goods Things currently manufactured in some foreign countries often fail to measure up to US quality standards of times past.

    "Away with you and your insistence on truth; accept what you're told by the bosses and shut your mouth!"
  10. Ace-Garageguy
    Yeah, I know. You just divide the real measurement by 24 or 25 to get the scale measurement.

    Tombstone Az. has an interesting history, and attractions ranging from tacky kitsch to secluded but luxurious desert getaways.

    Yup. And if you're building a real car, there's also the size of the radiator you can squeeze in whatever grille shell you want for aesthetic reasons...and that illustrates the reason why the best cars are the product of rather a lot of careful consideration of a wide variety of interrelated factors.

    Broken brains seem to be becoming the dominant powers.

    Exactly. Every car is a little different when it comes to what looks right. There's no formula. It's personal judgement as far as what "good proportion and line" dictates, and that's why some cars look dorky and unbalanced and some are sleek and attractive.

    Rules schmoolze; we don' need no stinkin' rules!

    Hot rod frames, particularly for T-buckets, are often built from 2" X 4" rectangular steel tube.

    California used to be just about the coolest place on Earth and might be again someday, but I'm not holding my breath.

    Mystery novels are among my favorite recreational reading.

    "Said" is a name of Arabic origin.

    I'm actually looking forward to this, and will most likely build it like I'd build a real one if I had the time and cash...gut it, and stuff a smallblock Ford V8 where it belongs.
  22. Ace-Garageguy
    Beautiful model, beautiful presentation, inspiring craftsmanship.
  23. Ace-Garageguy
    I really like that. If I didn't already have several lifetimes worth of projects to get to, I'd consider building one.
  24. Ace-Garageguy
    Warm, sticky, and slippery can be fun at the right time and place.

    Looking really good, Ray.
