vintagestang Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 I actually think that this would make a great magazine. The part about the glove box door hinge and the pleats would be a great tutorial.
slownlow Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I'de like to see an article about making correct inner tubes with a follow up on how to insert them without pinching them against the rims. There could be links for where to get country correct air to inflate them.
mr moto Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 Thanks but no thanks! I'm keeping my subscription to Glue Bomb!
Harry P. Posted June 1, 2012 Author Posted June 1, 2012 Thanks but no thanks! I'm keeping my subscription to Glue Bomb! And I appreciate your business!

There could be links for where to get country correct air to inflate them. Well, I'm working on it. Trouble is... would 35 psi in 1:25 scale be the same as 35 psi in 1:1?
mistermodel Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Well, I'm working on it. Trouble is... would 35 psi in 1:25 scale be the same as 35 psi in 1:1? is 1/25 coolent a 50/50 mix? is 1/25 12 volts 12 volts? Great pictures guys Edited June 2, 2012 by mistermodel
Chuck Most Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 Well... 50/50 is 50/50, no matter what the scale. Not sure what 12 volts would to to in-scale wiring...
bryan_m Posted June 4, 2012 Posted June 4, 2012 oh man!! too funny harry, thanks for the laugh! we need an article on the correct valve stems for wheels in that mag! thanks again for the laugh! cheers bryan
Shardik Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 I haven't received my Special Interiors issue yet. Has someone finally addressed the proper thread count for the herringbone twill in the 58 Henderson?
jcbigpaw Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 As long as we are tossing things out there, when are we going to start addressing correct "scale weight" in our replicas? ?
blunc Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 I thought it was the 58 Henway...not Henderson. You don't have to worry about threadcount on the seats of the Scripps-Booth Mosquito, it had the new and improved Gel seats...
Chuck Most Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 As long as we are tossing things out there, when are we going to start addressing correct "scale weight" in our replicas? I hear that'll be in the March issue. Right between the realistic main seal leak how-to and the tutorial on what shade of off-chrome is correct for the heater hose clamps on a '69 Nova.
blunc Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 will that include "Making the Correct Size Muffler Bearings" and "Adding the Correct Day-n-Night Rear-view Mirror Lever" ?
mr moto Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 is 1/25 coolent a 50/50 mix? is 1/25 12 volts 12 volts? Great pictures guys 12 volts is still 12 volts in 1/25 scale. However, in order to get the amperage right you have to use 1/25 scale electrons!
blunc Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 is that because 1:1 electrons won't fit through 1/25 scale wires?
Harry P. Posted November 8, 2012 Author Posted November 8, 2012 is that because 1:1 electrons won't fit through 1/25 scale wires? Exactly.
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 I thought it was the 58 Henway.. Q: What's a Henway? A: About 3 pounds.
blunc Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 Q: What's a Henway? A: About 3 pounds. Ahh...thank you for playing. I'm just guessing you've heard of the "potfur" also...
martinfan5 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 What would 87 octane be in 1/24th 25th scale , yep I build both, so I need to know for both scales
mr moto Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 What would 87 octane be in 1/24th 25th scale , yep I build both, so I need to know for both scales That depends on the spark plug gap that you're using!
blunc Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 it would still be 87 octane but you'd have to have a really small plug gap or a really large coil or just go with HEI.
Danno Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 When you sign up for a two-year subscription, you get a 1/25 scale pocket protector.
