That can be painful if you grab the car the wrong way!! :lol: I use really fine fiber optic for antennae and flag poles, like on the Doba Deckert Ring mascot mobile. Nice and flexible, and it pops back in shape if it gets bent..

I make them by cutting up an old "E" (#1) string from a guitar. Use a new #11 Xacto blade tip to drill a little hole, a dab of super glue and that's it. :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

brilliant idea!

One working it's way through the shop. Tomorrow the pc, radio and antennas get put on. Rest of the trim and a final dip in Future, then off to District 6. ;) rr

Anyone else in the mood for key lime pie?? That came out awesome KD!!!! That continental kit just screams "COOL!!!" and the two tone is not easy to pull of!!! I managed to get one out of 4 right, having paint creep into the door seams and ruin the 3 boo boos. I'm having a hard time making out what you did to the grill. It doesn't look stock, but I can't make out what you did. Great job on the slime sled!! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Filled the bottom of the grille and painted white. Just a row of teeth showing now. Can't get a decent pic because of the glare from the white. Great work on the Cop car and the buggy also guys.

Now that's slammed SF!! :thumbsup: I bet it sticks to the track and flies too!! Dang!! :freak: :cool:

tjetsgrig... It's now very often we see Model Motoring (II) bodies customized, and you got 2 posted. The 66 GTO looks cool done up with the fade paint job, and who makes those wheels?? :thumbsup::thumbsup:

SuperFist

Like those fray bodies better than the ones I have seen... good job!
CJ
That's a Johnny Lighting Thunderjet Challenger body.
It's one of the nicer ones to lower onto the chassis for a go fast T-Jet.

Darn!! Now I need an orange!!! Well, I needed it a ways back when Hilltop was in an orange kind of mood, but I couldn't find a decent lacquer in that color. Nice looking batch Ed!!! I guess I need to post a few of mine on here,since I always forget to pop them on this thread.. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I got that Monza in a junk lot with a half busted off rear wing, I sanded the rest of it off flat, and used a chrome j.l. viper wing. the Jager are Pattos, peel and stick vinyl. I think the #3 are from a "zilla" lot.

Ooooooooooooh man...H:):)TERS car!!! Yeah Halloween is youre thing Ed. Great stuff. I like the light blue mixed in there with the Hooters Chaparral. :cool:

I dig it man. Sorry about my slow response but, have been busy getting a Mini Bike for the kids. Ginger was not happy when she saw it in the garage. *Ginger is still not happy about it* :mad: but, she is talking to me know. lol

Bob...tip toe-ing around the house and doing stuff to please TM lately...zilla

Exposing the kids to the minibike at home, your home, with you right there teaching them, actually might not be such a bad thing. Otherwise, add that onto their list of things you know they'll always want to try.... and probably still will, only at some other kid's house... when their parents aren't there... and unfortunately.... neither are you. nd

FWIW... This exact thing happened to me. Instead of learning how to ride it from an adult... I learned from an 8 year old and I was 7. :freak:

grungerockjeepe

11-19-2009, 02:05 PM

TJD--Good point, 'cept for 1 little flaw: NO ONE here really qualifies as an adult. Having had more birthdays doesnt make Bob Crashzilla any more solid of a teacher than the average 8 year old! hahah!
