  1. agreed 100% that Hearse thing no thanks
  2. I went thru my magazines and don't have that issue I do have one after it became the Mr Nrom car though if that would help
  3. To cool. Killer idea
  4. now theres a good idea for an enterprising decal maker.. I'll take a set in Buffalo Trace livery please.
  5. I'm not a Vette can in any way. But I've built one of those streaker Vette kits many many years ago. Now that it's reissued. I might have to try one again. I've always thought the 63 to 67 versions were the best of the lot.
  6. If they made it exactly like that pictured shows, with everything included . I'll pay that for it
  7. Having used to own a 1986 Suzuki GSXR750 It was a blast to ride.....but these youngsters today have knads of steel to ride at those speeds and conditions
  8. PS, B5 wasn't a color avail in 1968 . Thats a 1969 and 1970 color - coded EB5 , 1971 it became GB5 and is just a touch darker than previous years For 1968 Roadrunner the Blues were . EE1 , QQ1 and UU1. QQ1 is the closest to B5 but Q1 has a tad brighter brilliance to it. To answer the OP, the best bet is with the smaller companies making paints specifically for model car use. Scale Finishes is enamel. MCW is a lacquer
  9. Just my opinion But If I paid for 6 issues a year. And I assume that means all 6 within a 12 month span beginning from the start date of subscription,,,. I except said issues. I seem to remember reading a while back capitol was needed to continue, basically telling me money from new subscribers was going to pay for old back ordered issues. Sorry, and I mean no ill towards the owner, but that's a recipe for disaster from the word go.
  10. MCW. Keep in mind there was 3 different blues avail then
  11. I ckd. Sorry....but don't have an extra. Never had the modelhaus stuff
  12. Looks like the Micheals near me carries it. Looking at the colors avail I'm going to have to ck this out.
  13. Im guessing black . Ive never seen a white dash from an oem
  14. A face only a mother would love . One of my favorite Mopars in the 1/1 world ( Ive had 4 of them ) And have always liked this car in Yellow. Buddy of mine used to own a Lemon Twist yellow 1970 Bee, 440 sixpack auto
  15. I stand corrected. I wasnt 100% sure when the HUG versus the Funnycar issue related to each other time frame wise (meaning which one came 1st )
  16. this may be true. But it was boxed and marketed from the beginning as Hemi Under Glass
  17. The way I understand it. the OP wants to fog paint over thin pinstripes ( like shown in the picture ) for that he needs to lay a very thin pinstripe tape down and paint along said tape with a very small tipped air brush And btw, I did NOT use an airbrush or tape. Fireball 500 was done last year
  18. Agreed, All I listed are on my bench or just to the side of it and all get work done to them from time to time . My Golden Commandos car is box stock with nothing added except Fred Cady decals. The Lawman 64 Plymouth is pretty close to that except a Johan hood scoop , an auto trans from another lindberg kit and a pre-wired dist. Right now, Nothing is getting worked on. Models for me are a Fall and Winter hobby The Superbird and the Challenger have never been far away from the immediate work area or my mind. But neither is box stock and are the 2 most detailed builds I've attempted in several years. My problem is I get bored with adding detail and the slow pace it requires so only work on those 2 when I have the inclination. I much prefer box stock builds. They're easier, smoother with less headaches ( most of the time )
  19. Tyrone Malone Superboss Tommy Ivo 4 engine car. aka Showboat There was actually 3 different Hemi Under Glass cars. The common / re-issued 1966 , a 1968 and also a 1969 Dodge fever pickup
  20. I have a 1959 and two 1960s. , ( all convertibles ) Ive never been a huge fan of the 61 and up body style myself. But yours has me thinking more and more about it. Especially in the black with off white interior
  21. You just need the hood ? I have to ck to see how many I bought. I know I have 3 , and plans for all 3. But think I have a few more ,,,will ck tonight
  22. The very first Little Red Wagon
  23. Everything I own is on the Que to be built, its the WHEN part thats the problem. But physically on the bench or at the least very close by at the moment Lawman 1964 Plymouth Super stock 426 wedge Golden Commandos 1964 Plymouth Super Stock 426 Hemi Johan Plymouth Superbird - replica build of a friends former car MPC 1970 Challenger 340 - replica of my former car AMT 1959 Galaxie Sunliner conv build I dont build much ( aka NONE ) in the summer time. So it'll be a few more months before I get time to get back to the bench
  24. Have you thought about taking two Xacto blades spaced apart accordingly the width you want. And cut stripes of electrical tape,,,,. they carefully just wrap it around the wheel . Maybe with a little dab of superglue on the end
  25. I would have to double ck. But I don't think the S+M Bird has the stock tires or wheels in it anyway
