  1. looks awesome. hope you get the trunk sorted out can't wait to see it finished.
  2. go to the repair department and ask for some old strings they'll likely give them to you free.
  3. any of those would look good with some rubber on them.
  4. if I'm not mistaken hobby lobby has those x-acto ones.

  6. you should be proud. great job Kate.
  7. nice color choice can't wait to see the rest.
  8. I had two old (20 years) lamborghini models the paint was very hard to get off (can't remember what kind) after a week in csc 95% of the paint was gone but when I tried to wash them they were so britle they just abuot shattered in my hand. could this have been caused by the castrol or was it just old age, or a combo of the two?
  9. I'm not much for prayer but tonight you got it.
  10. Gorgeous I'm at a loss for words.

    68 charger

    thanks everyone. I have some other builds posted as well 67 xxx gto, 55 chevy (pickup), vampire van, alien ID4 exoskeleton. please check them out and let me know what you think. these are the first pics I've posted and no one outside of family has ever seen any of my builds so I would realy like to here what you think.
  12. those are pactra brand paints made for r/c car bodies. I haven't used them myself but I understand they can damage model car bodies because they are not the same material. You might be able to use them if the model is primed and sealed though someone else here should be able to tell you for sure though. if you don't get an answer in a few days try a new topic asking about pactra paints. I just did a 67 xxx gto with duplicolor mirage that changes from blue to purple (package calls it blue and red) that looks pretty cool check it out in the under glass section.
  13. or it thinks it's a hood ornament on a mack truck.
  14. mike, don't blame the video games but the parents who stick their kids in a room with them insted of theching how to use their heads for something besides a hat rack.
  15. a well traveled bug. great job.
  16. gotta love those 70's cars, they're built like tanks.
