That axle is really nice, a very welcome part.

Very cool, now off to buy two more.

I went through the stash and pulled out all my Olds kits with Rally wheels. First us the Revell 72 442 convertible, second is the Revell 72 Cutlass pace car, and third is the Revell 83 Hurst Olds.

Joseph does say his wheels are 15x7 so they are the bigger wheel.

The Revell 83 Olds kits have those wheels but they look like they have trim rings to me.

Fireball makes these:

It's not the way I would or am planning on doing it but after looking at it there are worse ways.

I'm wanting to do this too. The cheapest way is to borrow the top of the sleeper from the snap kit but I compared the snap top to the RoG sleeper and the top is about an eighth of an inch too narrow to fit so it will take some work to make it fit. The early version of the RoG T600 also has an Aerodyne sleeper but it's a very expensive and hard to find kit.

Shop-Vacs are wet/dry, they can't pass potentially water containing air through the electric motor. The motor does have a separate fan for cooling but it's not using air from the vacuum side for that. Here's a picture of a Shop-Vac motor, you can see the motor cooling fan on top and the on the bottom is the enclosed vacuum impeller.

The original big box version didn't have them, I'm not sure about the small box release from a few years ago.

I don't think that fan would be ok. If the motor is in the air stream it needs to be intrinsically safe because paint fumes are usually flammable. You can use a squirrel-cage fan because the motor is separated from the air being moved. I've also seen recently someone using a Shop-Vac. The motor is out of the air stream so it's safe, you just need one where the exhaust side allows you to connect a tube that you can vent safely.

Yep, I was going to use one of the new bodies with the old Cobra parts but now I won't have to.

According to their site it is.

Take a close look at the 81 Camaro. It's an old Revell snap kit, not the Monogram 1/24 kit we've been getting lately.

I like some early Lady Gaga, Paparazzi is a great song. Then there's Mika.

Shapeways is in the US, every order I've done with them is a $10 flat shipping fee for a box that would hold 3 AMT kits. If you follow the link above, then hit the three lines in the upper left then on the next page you'll get a magnifying glass in the upper right to search. If you have an account you can save creators stores that have things you like so you can find them easier when you're ready to buy.

The 71 Mustang, 70 Torino Cobra, and the Pulldozer Blazer off the top of my head. I think their was something else but I can't remember at the moment.

Someone already does a Dana 44 in 1/24 scale but something beefier like a Dana 60 or 80 would be great. https://www.shapeways.com/product/G95CPQBSZ/1-24-dana44highpinion-2sets

Revell is going to hurt me for the foreseeable future. I need a couple 32s for the intakes, a Roadrunner, Olds, and hopefully just the decals from the 85 Camaro. Plus a bunch of other stuff they've announced for later.

Yes, I'd love to have it.

I got a nice set from Scenes Unlimited.

Those look amazing, thank you for doing that.

Based on working with it how do you think it would react to a clear coat?

They average about $40 on ebay but you can sometimes find them cheaper in an auction.

That's good news because that is one thing I'm planning on doing. I only recently got the Capri kit after ignoring it the last time it was out, they're pricey now and it took a while to find a deal.
