Uh 18 or so inches of snow & the closure of the state of Indiana!! I heard I-80 & I-65 have been shut down...no traffic on them! Fun stuff!

I live in Indy, I shoveled 4 times, and will one more before I go to bed. The snow is the easy part, it's the -13 that will be bad. Looks like with a day off work I'll be working on a model tomorrow. Not bad at all.

Jim, I thought the one you bought was blue. Did you get it repainted or am I thinking of someone else? I just picked up a stinger for my buggy too, really like the way they sound.

Cold here too,but we didn't get quite as much snow as the northern part of the state. I don't have to go anywhere,and I'm not..

Got this original Monogram Big Tub last Friday. Not too bad except the passenger side looks like they poured a bottle of Testor's liquid cement down between the body and interior. Got it aprt without too much damage. It's going to be a restoration project.

I bought a blue '74 last month. Didn't like it except for the wheels. I plan to swap wheels and get the blue one on ebay soon.

Hi, could you tell us the name of the LHS, I'll be in the Phoenix area next March and I like to buy GSI Creos products.

I see the same thing at our local shows, and at first, I thought the same, why are not buying anything, but I guess when you already have most of the kits that are being sold :lol:

I did pick up some stuff at the LHS today

It's going to be a project car, Kerry. I have disc brakes ready for the front. When I removed the back seat today I ripped out the wire from the battery to the voltage regulator. It took me and a neighbor almost 2 hours to figure out what happened that there was no power. It has a 1641cc engine and the exhaust will be replaced with a stinger unit. Don't need no heater boxes here in Florida (although tomorrow night is supposed to get down to 27. Nasty.

It'll be even better when ya get it done. Sorry to hear about the wire issue, at least ya figured it out...

This showed up from eBay! It may not look lie a big deal to you, but it's a fresh clean 1972 Chevy Impala interior! The last part I needed to complete my car, which is the last car I needed to complete my Chevy run from the early 1950s to 1976! Yea!

And why am I doing the happy dance? The interior bucket is the one part that Modelhaus doesn't make. I had a search agent looking for it on eBay for something like six months. Mission accomplished and for only $10 too!
