LoneWolf15 Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) This one went to CA. to be shown and never made it back home . What a shame ! The Old Man Edited January 29, 2009 by LoneWolf15
RJWood Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 That is a shame. You did a great job with it. At least you have the pix, get another one and build it again. Maybe some day it will find its way back home.
87 Grand Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Oh man that is really nice. I love the attention to detail and the paint is just beautiful. What a nice color. Great job.

LoneWolf15 Posted January 30, 2009 Author Posted January 30, 2009 Sweet looking Nomad for sure! How did it end up going awol? Doc, Long story short .... A well known builder from CA. and I started building together for other people 's collections . He took my cars to shows on the West Coast , I showed his on the East Coast . We did this for years . He had some health issues . Starting with a hip replacement , one thing lead to another with the medication and he ended up having a breakdown. It was a great friendship and an excellent partnership until all of this went down . He has 6 show cars of mine that were supposed to have been mailed back to me last April. I have 'nt heard from him since. The cars are a minor thing , I just hope he is doing ok. He has'nt returned any of my calls nor responded to any of my emails . None of the boys from CA. have seen hide nor hair of him at the West Coast shows either . I miss him alot , he was a great guy to talk models with , for that matter , just about anything ! I'd like to think that he got everything straightened out , least ways , I hope so The Old Man
SteveG Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Another beauty Don, hopefully it will turn up somewhere. I've shipped a lot of models around and they have all found there way home. My problem is getting them back in one piece. -Steve
LoneWolf15 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Posted January 31, 2009 As usual Beautiful build bro!! Tha paint looks GREAT (big shock ) How do you get all your builds so perfect? (must be lacquers ) J/K . I been studying ( and taking notes on ) the DVD and soon shall be closer to your level Laquers ? Did you say laquers ? The Old Goat would stroke out ! Hey Kid ! , that's why I put it out on the market . It can and will help anybody. Follow the steps , but most importantly , Be patient ! That's why I always recommend having several going at once , and having several prepped and ready for paint when the mood hits . Practice , practice , and more practice , Bri . Become a student of the game ! You don't think I got all this gray hair from my ex-wives , did ya ? It's called experience ! I figured that all you youngsters should benefit from my pain , suffering , and expense. Why should I make you go through what I did ? Keep rolling with it , Little Bro , The Old Man 's always here for ya ! Thanks for the Kudos from everyone !, Much appreciated ! Lone Wolf
LoneWolf15 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Posted January 31, 2009 Ya know I be constantly studying your method Bro. You're my Yoda oh great Jedi Master of the Airbrush. I just had to keep ya on yer toes w/ the lacquer thing you & me and ENAMEL all the way Bro (no matter what Harry says ) Aww Kid ! Now ya did it ! You mentioned the H word , the E word , and the L word all in the same sentence ! Next thing ya know , brimstone , fire , smoke , all that stuff is going be flyin' around ! The Tinman is going to come down from the tree house in Netherwood and you're going to get smited ! Of coarse , that all depends on how much Geritol is in the fuel tank ! Hey ! , I'll be tossing a pm your way over the weekend , need some info from ya ! Now be vewy , vewy quiet , I think I heard the Tinman creakin' about ! The Old Man
