• JUST RECEIVED THESE.....Late model T-Bird, From my friend Ken, you know the BRONCO GT best of show in Cedarville. He gave me permission to post them. Ken showed me how to use sculpting putty (my Allison power boat). Anyway what a start. PIX and thanks for looking
  • Nice...my kind of build *NM*
  • Very cool :-) *NM*
  • That's pretty wild.Very cool! *NM*
• Like Star Trek?? How about a 1/25 scale TOS Enterprise??? Yes....1/25!! *LINK*
  • Keep us updated. *NM*
  • I always wanted a 1/25 scale Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea submarine. *NM*
    • I built the Moebius one. It's already 3 feet long LOL
  • That is cool - a lot of work. One year at an IPMS National Convention -
  • At 1/25 scale, the Enterprise would be 38 feet long! Wow... *NM*
    • It will have sections that come off to see a complete interior........ *NM*
  • Not the TOS, but someone randomly came upon an approx. 1:64 scale Enterprise in a Toronto-area front yard with a FOR SALE sign on it, and is restoring it... *LINK* *PIC*
  • Maybe someone should do one to go with 1:6 scale collectible figures. :-) *NM*
• Paint Jobs
  • Do you mean the swirly stuff? *NM*
    • Re: Do you mean the swirly stuff?
      • Len do mean like these..... PICS
        • On both of these all I did was using Gold or Silver as a base, take watered down black brush WB paint around what you want or satisfied with, let it dry shoot Dupli-color Metalcast paint and spray away. *NM*
        • That’s not what I mean Frank. I will try to find a photo. *NM*
  • Didn't Tim Boyd do an article on this in SAE years ago? *NM*
  • Hank Borger (from the old Car Model magazine) called them 'Swirl-a-delic' paint jobs. Did a 'how to' in Car Model mag back in the early '70's. *NM*
    • There's the Swirladelic as you mentioned and also the marbleized system such as house of color has (shown in pic). *NM* *PIC*
      • Yes. I forgot about that! I used that on this build from the mid '70's. *NM* *PIC*
• Heritagecon XV, Warplane Heritage Museum, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada...short report... *LINK*
• To everyone who attended the MCMA contest this past Saturday.
  • I attended, no trophies, no complaints had a great time *NM*
    • Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I wanted to get around and talk to you but I couldn't find myself most of the day. *NM*
• You tube video of the Freeze Frame model show that was this past Saturday in Fort Wayne, IN. ........ *NM* *LINK*
• Pics from Saturdays Freeze Frame show in Fort Wayne, IN. There were 747 entries. My battery was running low, so I only took some group shots. I don't like doing it this way. Hopefully some of you will enjoy them. ............... *PICS* .......
  • 1ST RULE: Never go to a show without EXTRA batteries. Thanks for posting. *NM*
  • "only took some group shots"- Still a great representation of that show. Thanks for posting. *NM*
  • Well, tell ya true, Scott, I kinda like the "group" photo's "system". But, again, that's just me. *NM*
  • Group photos are just as good as the individual shots, thanks for sharing. *NM*
  • Much appreciated! Thanks Scott *NM*
• Speaking of Round2 future releases, I'd like to see these resurrected...PICS
  • I'm pretty sure that's covered under "dream on"! *NM*
    • Jim, They're doing the '60 F-100, right? I'll never stop dreamin'.😉 *NM*
    • If they did that, you’d have endless threads complaining how there is no engine detail. You can’t win with some poeple. *NM*
      • Not me, there's tons of engines and parts out there. *NM*
  • The tools should be just as-is, as you see them now
• 172 high res images with builders identified from 2023 DAAM Show *LINK* *PIC*
  • I am so sorry I missed it again... Wifey and I or made the a weekend of it with some luck I'll make the fall. I especially miss our dinners together afterward TB along with the other clown car attendee's... LOL! *NM*
    • OH WAIT! I'm sorry that was Toledo with Marty cause you've never met my wife. Sorry got the venue and date's mixed up. *NM*
    • Frank, those get togethers after the NNL Nats were a blast! Thx for the reminder...TB *NM*
    • Frank...did I read that you are buying dinner after the fall event? :) :) :) *NM*
      • Best selling Fiction... On the short arms and long pockets list. *NM*
        • There's always Mickey D's, Frank! L.O.L. *NM*
  • Wow! Some really outstanding builds there. Thanks for the coverage. *NM*
  • Great pics, Tim.... LOVE that candy coated wedge chopped van!!!! *NM*
    • Marty, that was built by Mike LeGault, a model builder since the 1970's and a professional 1/1 scale automotive painter. Mike has been doing spectacular models for at least 45 years...this is just his latest. Thx for the comment...TIM *NM*
  • Thank you Tim. Lots of cool builds. *NM*
  • The red/maroon '41 Plymouth S/D, just blows my mind! Resin or kitbash? Love it!! *NM*
  • I am wondering how many entries were at the DAAMs show. We had our contest here in Dallas on Saturday and only had 265 cars on the tables. With the Ft Wayne show having 747 and your show only 180 miles away, it amazes me how many people turn out for contest in your area. *NM*
    • You have to take into consideration the differences in population density. *NM*
      • Cedarville (IL) show, two weeks ago, had 248 models entered. And that is a VERY rural area *NM*
      • Yes, but we get people from OKC, Houston and Louisana. I would think we should get more than 44 people to enter. *NM*
    • To me it's all about advertising - especially to the general public. . Many shows I've been to seem to be some kind of secret before the event ..... *NM*
      • We've been doing this show for over 30 and advertise very heavily. I have come to the conclusion that Texans are just weird. *NM*
  • That oilfields truck is awesome! *NM*
  • This is a tremendous amount of footwork, Tim - much appreciated here, couldn't make the show but love your shots
  • Great pictures. It's hard to believe people would show their name and address like that. To much identity theft nowadays. *NM*
• Round 2 Product News at 2023 DAAM Show *LINK* *PIC*
  • WoW! Dare we hope for a 1960 Buick or something else from the world of late 59s/early 60s AMT and SMP? *NM*
    • 1960 Buick... man would I like to have one of those! How about a 1960 Chevy Nomad or El Camino? The possibilities are (almost) endless! Now I will have sleepless nights until the NNL news comes out... lol *NM*
  • Looks great! Can't wait to get my hands on one of those (as well as the other Round 2 'clone' projects)! *NM*
  • Thanks again, Tim.... Gonna have to snag me one of those '60 F100's so I can clone my yellow MOON gasser pickup that I just sold a couple of weeks ago....
    • I'm wanting one of those new Bronco kits to build with a lifted suspension. Now the engine, maybe an Iceman Ford Boss Nine 429 w/ Hi-Ram Intake. *NM*
  • HAFTA get a few of those F100s. First one will be a clone of one my dad built before I was born. 3" chop, kandy orange paint, slammed stance. *NM*
  • Let the good times roll! Thanks Tim *NM*
  • Can't really tell but looks like they still using the 92 grill in the 96 Chevy trucks! Wish someone would 3D a 94-98 correct grill! But glad to see these back out for price sake! *NM*
    • I’m surprised they didn’t tool up a later version of the grill for those kits. I’m still trying to get over the fact of AMT/Ertl not owning the tooling for those truck kits back in ‘90’s. *NM*
• DAAM Motor City Madness #22 *LINK*
  • So the Powell is coming after all. Wasn't sure I believed it. Might be building one for a guy. *NM*
    • Well, the print was there, but I didn't ask about it....... *NM*
  • I see the slot cars guys weren't racing or were they relocated cause that other side of the bleachers was filled with models. How many of the 1:1 cars were there? *NM*
    • There were about four 1/1 scale cars located along the north wall of the facility...TB *NM*
  • Thank you Pat. *NM*
    • Ditto! *NM*
  • Thank you Pat. Glad to see you're still around. *NM*
    • Rumors of my demise ..... blah... blah ...... blah..... *NM*
  • Thanks for taking photos of the primer table. *NM*
    • Quite often my favorite table............. *NM*
  • Thanks for sharing the PICS! *NM*
• Processing and posting images from the DAAM show now, will have a followup post with images and info in the next couple of hours....TB *NM*
  • Thanks, Tim! *NM*
• My "new" 1972 Pontiac gto circa 1980 (PICS)
  • It looks like the rear bumper was a problem even on those. *NM*
  • I never built one of those. Somehow I missed them. *NM*
  • So nice *NM*
  • Nan I like that, and no rubber band tires or huge wagon wheels, Cool! *NM*
  • I built that kit back in grade school and have a couple more waiting on the shelf. *NM*
• Stories Behind the Stories... *PICS*
  • I think they both look pretty good, which is probably a testimont to the quality of your rebuilf job. *NM*
  • Great recovery.... Man I could think of better things to do than regluing parts back on to an already built model. Plus you can never go wrong with using BP's car. Nice job on the recovery. *NM*
  • Great Save! *NM*
  • Thank you so much for all the great comments from you! *NM*
• Not Dave, but a quick google search on Close to my Heart website lists it for $10.95. *NM*
  • Yep, thanks. I already ordered some from them, and is supposedly going to be delivered today. *NM*
• Just saw a blurb with Denny Hamlin badmouthing NASCAR decision to eliminate stage breaks at least on road courses....and here I was thinking finally they got rid of those. Now dump that "choose" rule, the only races I am familiar with that you get to choose your lane is drag
  • I never minded the stages so much, but the stage breaks suck. Let 'em keep racing, and just chart the positions at the end of each stage. My 2 pennies! *NM*
    • Problem with 2 stage cautions on the big road courses is that they add 20-30 minutes to the races, all under caution. I think it was a great idea to get rid of them at road courses. Really, they need to get rid of all of them. Who really cares what Hamlin wants. *NM*
      • I agree Bill, Denny who? *NM*
    • That's what they're doing and that keeps them racing sort of like putting lap money out there. *NM*
    • I'm with you on that, skip the stage breaks on all courses, yes the ovals too, and let them keep racing even tho' the stages ends, fabricated caution laps just adds unnecessary length to an allready long race *NM*
  • Are they saying the younger drivers can't race all day like the old dogs used to ? *NM*
• Totally off topic but yesterday we had a Birthday party for my 99 year old aunt (my Mom's younger sister), also present were my 96 year old uncle, 86 year old aunt, 80 year old uncle and 77 year old aunt (I'm going to be 76 in June)... The celebration was at our local Legion *PIC*
  • Wow great bloodlines.... Looks like a nice gathering. *NM*
  • It seems you won the lottery in great genetics. Nice! *NM*
  • Looks like a wonderful family. Congrats to all. *NM*
  • OT Similar situations on my mother's side. Mother was the second daughter of my grandmother, who had five daughters and was pregnant with her fifth at the same time her first was also pregnant. So I had an aunt and a cousin almost the same age. Age wise, my mother made it
    • Bill, all my grandparents lived into their 90s with my grandmother on my Mom's side living to 109 years old. Looks like my aunts and uncles are heading that way too... *NM*
      • I envy you. My paternal grandfather at 99, his mother at 102 and my mother at 93 I think are the only ones over 90 for me, although my maternal grandmother may have been just a bit over 90 but I am not sure. It is the ones that passed quite a bit earlier that worry me. ;^) *NM*
  • Raymond, that is simply marvelous! You made my day... *NM*
  • Nice family Raymond. Great that so many joined the party *NM*
  • Cool Raymond! I have a photo at home of 5 generations of my Dad's family at a reunion years ago.
    • My Mother was the first of her generation, I was the first of mine, my eldest daughter was the second of hers, and her son was the first of his... I have a picture of my grandmother holding my grandson and telling me he was the first of the 5th generation living... *NM*
• I missed the MCMA 2023 show in Farmers Branch, Texas - Dallas area. My sister and I are are watching the March Madness 2023 basket.ball tournament and two teams we are following made the Elite Eight level. One game was yesterday and the other plays today trying to advance to
• When I was around 10 or 11 or so early 1970s
  • Maybe it was Strawberry Patch and when you read it aloud that was too close for your mom? ;^) *NM*
  • That was the name of a WWII aircraft. *NM*
  • Not sure that ANY model company, even in those days would put that on a decal sheet.
    • LOL no worries. I might be wrong. Something made her unhappy but it probably said something else. Oh well :it was worth a try. :-) *NM*
    • Remember when the model companies tried to corrupt us whit with beer and cigarette decals..ahh the good old days. *NM*
      • Salvnos has brought beer decals back and Round2 has some too now ....of course now we are to old to use either LOL *NM*
    • I've got a mid-Seventies AMT decal sheet, it mentions the Mustang Ranch!
      • Hah!! That's a hoot!!! *NM*
  • FWIW, Minicraft offered a 1:72 scale kit of a B-24D with that name. *LINK*
    • Not sure of the size because it's the nose art. *NM*
• My 67 Mustang Shelby build *PIC*
  • Where did you source the hood scoop from? *NM*
  • Looks like the scoop that was on the GTO hoods! *NM*
  • Cool 😎 *NM*
  • Those are some major fender flares. *NM*
  • I am totally digging that... I've done a few wide bodies before but not that wide. I've seen those flares but I don't remember them being ICEMAN I'll have to look at the site. *NM*
  • I like how the spoiler flows into the flares *NM*
  • thanks guys. I printed the flares, they are from Printpixel and the scoop was a free file from thingiverse. I’m working on some wheels for it now…. *NM*
• Link to expanded kit review and building advice for Round 2's AMT 1964 Olds Cutlass Convertible kit, now accessible to all without a subscription to the website's publication...TB *LINK* *PIC*
  • Thanks so much to you & Kalmbach. This is most helpful, Tim. *NM*
• Behind the scenes of the book published business: Entire unpublished text for a planned sidebar re future kit ideas from my book "Collecting Drag Racing Model Kits"... *LINK* *PIC*
  • I'd like to see Pete Robinsons 427 Cammer top fuel car. We really need a new tool ACCURATE top fuel cammer motor model. My 2 cents. *NM*
    • David...what a great suggestion! Best...TB *NM*
    • That would be one I'd go for. Actually started trying to cobble one up many years ago, then when he got killed at Pomona I just put everything back in the box and its buried in the stacks somewhere. *NM*
  • I don't know why but I remember one of the old mags had a double page spread and pic, "Sneaky Pete, Mr, Eliminator 1961"! Don't know why but I just hope that doesn't make me one of those hooligan gearheads! LOL! *NM*
  • The most easy to do is to update the latest Top Fuel Dragster kits to todays standard, not that hard if you want to...
    • Hakan, I agree entirely. When I interviewed several industry execs while writing the book, this exact subject was discussed. IIRC there was interest in investigating the idea, but it was put on hold during the Hobbico bankruptcy & apparently has not been revisited since. *NM*
• WELL WENT to LHS this morning got supplies only to discover to fix what I did the flatbed sits like a commercial truck bed. With the help of Jacky I think I can fix it. PIX and thanks for looking.
  • Those conversions tended to utilize the front half of a 4x4 chassis, with the load bed much like a trailer. They were front-wheel-drive. *NM*
  • I got a buddy with a junkyard here in NC and he got deal with a Calif yard that they will take every Toronado/Caddy FWD system they get. He waits till he gets a load and ships them out! It's just the old law of supply and demand, the eng/trans want bring much here and the
  • We've got a trailer with long fenders that just sit down in a slot and they have holddowns on the ends like the ones on a Jeep hood! If you haul low car just take fender off and slide back on when get out! *NM*
  • WOW..... All great observations and ideas but I have one question would the transfer over to a Chevy truck be worth that effort to build a FWD vehicle. Something for me to think about. ***INSIDE***
    • The car hauler I mentioned just uses the standard front axle and transfer case of the 4x4, so it drives and steers normally. They do this to get a low load floor without a driven rear axle to get in the way. Eldorado/Toronado FWD drivetrains are also popular for this, *NM*
  • Ed Sanger stock car hauler used a trailer and FWD
  • Here's an example of a FWD converted hauler *NM* *LINK* *PIC*
    • And here's another *NM* *LINK* *PIC*
      • OMG! GUYS you have filled my head with so much info and ideas that I'm going with plan A-Z.... thanks bunches *NM*
• Re: Duplicolor's Metalcast is basically a candy paint....
• Sorry club members. Should be "BSAC". *NM*
  • LOL! Figured it was just old age dyslexia kicking in. *NM*
    • I consider it an easy mistake when keys are adjacent.😎 *NM*
• Roll call! Anyone going to the Detroit show tomorrow? I'll be there with my son, making the 4 hour drive. *NM*
  • Sorry Mike I had good intentions but life just got in the way... I was hoping to meet some folks. *NM*
    • To be honest. With the current weather, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the roads will be halfway decent. If they're anything like how they were this morning, I won't even try. *NM*
      • We got 4" of wet, heavy snow and right now the roads and drives are dry as can be. *NM*
  • I'll be there with Mising Link. *NM*
  • Maybe next year? *NM*
• Hey guys, Happy Saturday! We're getting socked with snow today so I did some house cleaning and took a shower and now I can get some work done on models. Progress pics of Hudson Hornet chassis.
• Here's a picture of a build based on the original /c1963 kit content.... *PIC*
  • Great build. *NM*
  • Love the sponsor name *NM*
• Hello from Ponies in the Smokies photos when I get home *NM*
  • Tease!!! Have fun! *NM*
• I sure hope the headlights look as good as they do on that beautiful boxart! They were horrible on the other re- issue. *NM*
• Yes, they are. To me the chrome was just to overpowering *NM*
• Sent you email Frank, you have to copy and paste, I'm not good with pics! *NM*
  • I'll try this! *NM* *PIC*
    • I wish I had seen that earlier because I have my rear wheels in to far... didn't even notice it until I put wheels on it so I'll have to lift the bed portion a bit with square tubing. Thanks for the picture because I couldn't open email. *NM*
  • Just got back from LHS and bought some more supplies for this flatbed. I may still be able to do what you sent me if not I go with plan "A" -ish but Plan "B" yours may be in the works. ***INSIDE*** funny story, well a story anyway.
• Frank you could do it like the lowrider boys and just put a Toronado or Caddy front wheel drive in the hauler cab and don't have to worry about rear diff! Just make the back like a trailer! *NM*
• Thanks, Jim. I have been getting the occasional "suggestions" from Microsoft - basically the "Let's finish getting you started..." startup thing to change to Microsoft's programs instead of Google Chrome, etc. I followed your advice and maybe those kind of things will stop. *NM*
• Looks like you had some fun! I like all the details you came up with. *NM*

      • Re: "I love big *B*@#TS"...... Boats??? 🤣 *NM*
        • LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW bout it. Yes that's what I meant. Smart guy *NM*
    • So does that black Charger. *NM*
  • Don't know much about Mopars, but I know what I like when I see it... What year/model Chrysler is this? *NM* *PIC*
    • 1966 300 I do believe *NM*
    • 66 Chrysler 300. Johan did both hardtop and convertible, guessing both are pretty rare air *NM*
    • Swedish plates. Been here since 2018 at least. *NM*
    • Thanks for the info, guys. *NM*
  • That '55 Plymouth is cool!! *NM*
  • More great MOPAR pics! What is that engine? *NM*
    • Probably this. *PIC*
      • Very cool!!! *NM*
    • A Keith Black 318 Plymouth USAC/Indy car engine. In a Granatelli car, Art Pollard won the USAC 200 lap race at Dover, DE in '69. *NM*
    • A few more shots of the car. The old Grant King kit could be the base for this, but would take some real work for the engine. *PIC*
      • Great pics Wayne. Thanks! *NM*
  • Hey Bill, what's with the Chrysler Turbine kit box art? *NM*
    • Not Bill, but that was the box art from the stillborn Illinois Model Company's (IMC) announcement of several old Johan tools.... As I recall the actual tooling never materialized. *NM*
      • Thanks for the info Marty! Hope to see you guys in Milwaukee next month! *NM*
        • Here are pics from the IMC booth a the I-Hobby booth, in Chicago, in 2011.... Like I say, pity that they never came to fruition .... *PIC*
      • That’s a shame. I was looking forward to the Cutlass kit with the super stock wheels. Doesn’t Okey have the tooling or was it held hostage for back payment of moneys owed? *NM*
• Straight Line Saturday.... *PIC*
  • Dig the car to many decals... *NM*
    • Re: Dig the car to many decals...
      • Yes I would agree but with that many there has to be duplicates... Maybe not *NM*
        • They'd pay contingency money for each one on the car. Maybe even if one for a competing product was on there also...
          • Funny story, thanks! *NM*
            • That is a funny story and I didn't know that about the number of dup-sticker. So OK but I still don't like it. That's just me looking at the car and not racing the car. Good to know thanks. *NM*
      • Hmm, Chevy II wagon, 66 Nova kit, some misc parts and a lot of decals... *NM*
• Seems PayPal is being a bit of a bugger for both of us today. I can log in, still can't complete a purchase. *NM*

  • Thank you again for sharing! Great selections as always! *NM*
  • The orange (year?) sedan/coupe(?) in this pic. What is the black teardrop cover on the cowl for/from? *NM* *PIC*
    • My guess is it to cover a hole underneath for clearance of a linkage of some sort (brake,clutch, steering???) *NM*
  • I know this a unibody. However... Could you have imagined if Moebius had put this on their decal sheet? 🤣 *NM* *PIC*
  • Dang Marty, Like I don't have enough projects! Nice Pix, Thanks! *NM*
  • Lots of great stuff. That white Mach I is really stunning! *NM*
  • In HS I worked at Baskin/Robbins and that Gremlin's paint job looks like the BR Pinto the owners drove. *NM*
  • Thanks for these and all the other great pics you post. I look forward to seeing just what you will come up with each time. *NM*
    • And my condolences on the loss of the one who's wake you attended. Time just keeps on flowing by. *NM*
  • Love the 30s Dodge truck 3rd from the bottom,would be a slam dunk if kitted *NM*

    • Those things sold like hot cakes back in the day. *NM*
  • OH MY!!!! The tall "T" ? You just cost me some money, Marty! L.O.L. Also, is there a resin body of that '37/'38/'39 grungy lookin' Cheby? Hope so!! Childhood memories! *NM*
    • Boomer, that's a '37, and I recently ran across a resin 4 door, and if you're interested, I might be able to dig one up in July. You will, of course have to buy the AMT '37 coupe to build it. LMK *NM*
      • I just recently sold my resin 37 and 39 four-door sedan bodies.
        • If you had 'em at Cedarville, now I'm gonna cry!! L.O.L. 'course, didn't think about it('37) at the time! *NM*
      • Darn right, I'm interested.I already have the coupe!! TIA, Jim. Eeeeeeha!!! Made my day! *NM*
        • BTW, it's a little spendy, $65 or so, is that a problem?? *NM*
          • Big problem, so-----never mind!! Thanks anyhow. Wasn't expecting a "freebee", but, I'll build what I have in my stash, app. 26 kits, plus have 17 ready for primer, weather permitting. *NM*
  • Great stuff! I'm sure diggin' that Stude gasser! *NM*

    • Just something to keep Frank looking over his shoulder! 😁 *NM*
  • Guy on the combine's harvesting more dust than grain, I think. *NM*

  • It looks long because of the angle, but it just fits a Mustang with room for a tool box. *NM*
• You mean in the math or the head!! *NM*
• There isn't a pic in either one of your Jade Grenade posts. *NM*

• A big "Thank You" (or maybe 2 or 3) to Ragtop Man for the parts that arrived today, thereby saving another build. Very cool, and fast!! *NM*
  • Glad to help! *NM*
