Bob...those wheels were sort of a half-baked attempt to replicate a real 1/1 scale aftermarket wheel called "The HubCapper" that was widely advertised in Rod Action and Street Rodder mags in the mid-late 1970s. Glad you liked 'em! Cheers...TIM *NM*

New online model magazine and a link to a Boyd buildup article therein.... *LINK*

  - Yes. Thanks for the link Tim. *NM*
- Tim, you state they bought the forum from Gregg. Is it free to us, or do we need to subscribe to it? *NM*
  - To the best of my knowledge there is no firewall or charge but I believe they recently announced they would return advertising to their forum. As for the new website, I do not know what their longer term/future plans are....TB *NM*
    - Thank you *NM*
- Cool article and build, thanks for some more ideas *NM*
- Beautiful build...thanks for the new mag info. Here's my parts box quickie build. *LINK* *PIC*
- Nicely turned out, Tim! Things that make you go hmmmm...
- Nice! Posted before, here's a parts box build I did some time ago, kind of thought it would be something those guys in CARtoons would come up with...PICS
- Thanks guys for the comments, and I like your term "parts box builds". Pretty cool! TB *NM*
- Upon further reflection, probably better/more accurate to think of and refer to this new website an "online modeling reference/resource" than an online magazine...TIM *NM*
- Neat hot rod Tim! I like the painted wheels with hubcap look. Kind of like a steelies 'n caps look. *NM*
