mrknowetall Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Hats off to Tim Boyd for his outstanding build of a multi-media Model A hot rod in that "other" model car magazine's October issue ! What a great read! Edited August 29, 2014 by mrknowetall
samdiego Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) What "other" magazine? never heard of it Edited August 29, 2014 by samdiego
mrknowetall Posted August 29, 2014 Author Posted August 29, 2014 I'm leavin' my hat on. Show some respect! Hat off!
Tom Geiger Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 That puts me on mail box watch! I haven't seen my copy yet. Yea! Maybe a new model magazine for the weekend
samdiego Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Tim's been one of my favorite writers on this subject for a long time. I've got his entire Street Rodder run, before the model car ban. I always liked Tom Gaffney too. I wish P.J. O'Roarke built model cars. And I secretly consider SAE to be hugely helpful in the great Model Car Resurgence of the early 80s. Thanks Gary.

Harry P. Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Hats off to Tim Boyd for his outstanding build of a multi-media Model A hot rod in that "other" model car magazine's October issue ! What a great read! Wouldn't it have made a lot more sense to post this on that "other" forum? I don't think there are many posts over there about the latest issue of MCM. In fact, I know there are none. They're not allowed. Just sayin'...

I don't think there are many posts over there about the latest issue of MCM. In fact, I know there are none. They're not allowed. Just sayin'... Probably, but I don't frequent the other forum. I like this one better. More democracy here, less over there.
Harry P. Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Probably, but I don't frequent the other forum. I like this one better. More democracy here, less over there. I appreciate your loyalty, but IMO it's just bad form to be posting kudos about the "other" magazine here. It's like walking around a restaurant from table to table and telling everyone how great the food is in the restaurant across the street. Do you think the owner of the restaurant would appreciate you telling his patrons to go check out the competition... especially while doing so in his restaurant? You see my point. Instead of telling everyone about the great Tim Boyd article in the "other" magazine, maybe you could have given Tim props for his great article in the current issue of Model Cars Magazine? This is, after all, the Model Cars Magazine forum.
Sixx Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 I agree with Harry. :-) I actually need Tim's article coz I'm messing with the AMT Ford stake bed truck right now!!! Besides, I learned my lesson on posting things about the other peeps! :-)
mrknowetall Posted August 29, 2014 Author Posted August 29, 2014 Delete the post Harry. It won't happen again.
Harry P. Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 No, I won't delete it, but I will lock it because there's no need for anyone to comment further. I hope you see my point. We all know about the "other" magazine, so it's not as if we're trying to pretend they don't exist. But let's keep the Model Cars forum about Model Cars Magazine, and let the SA forum handle posts about Scale Auto Magazine. Makes sense to me. Fair enough?
