The driver base looks fantastic! Well done!!

Yeah, I'm really not a fan of the full window stickers. I can never get them to set correctly.
If I use them, I'll go back and cut next to the faux weatherstrip and remove the clear portion.

Yes, there is a slight resemblance.
Actually, I wouldn't mind owning that Pinto in your photo. I've been binge watching The Barn Find Hunter and after roughly 170 episodes, I've discovered that I like wagons.

Sorry if this has already been discussed. I watch this site closely and haven't seen it mentioned but it's possible that I've somehow missed it. I’ve recently noticed these popping up on ebay – around the time AE announced the 40th. Maybe these have been available for a while? I search ebay daily bu...

If it's this one you were thinking about,
... feel free to "borrow" the livery.

It wasn't my idea anyway.

I find nothing wrong with offering replacement parts.
If they are made using tooling that AE owns and without their permission, then obviously that's a problem.

Well, I guess it could be. This body has bounced around a lot lately.
The BB was converted to a Stadium Blitzer a couple months back and the BB body has landed on a custom DT-02 chassis.
... for now anyway.

Took this one yesterday... some weird cloud seeding/chem trail???????????? 20240423_085042.jpg Pilot forgot his lunch and went back for it . Or it might be a chem trail of those weird drugs that make you want to vote Trump :?: :lol: Record high inflation Rollercoaster fuel prices Lost retirement in...

Man, you are quick with the Photoshop.

I was asleep through the Lazer years so I missed this one.
Early reports say that pricing will be reasonable so I'm considering adding this one to the collection.
Actually, it would probably go onto the stack of unbuilt kits but whatever.

Yeah, the nose fits very tight between the fenders without paint. I can't see how you could install it after paint. Not without scratching it anyway. I paint mine as an assembly. On the Blitzer Beetle body (maybe SS body as well), there was an odd recess above the front fenders (ahead of the gas doo...

Looking good.
You're brave to tackle the nose-body gap.
I chickened out on mine.

Looking good. You're brave to tackle the nose-body gap. I chickened out on mine. :lol: Yours looks really smooth, excellent prep work! Is that with the primer on it? Going to prep the body today by roughing the exterior to get it ready for primer. The weather has not been good for painting anything...

Well, it's been a few months since our precious Louie left us, so time for a new four-legged bundle of bark. This is Rudy , a 2 1/2 year old Kelpie. 20240316_165039.jpg We adopted him from a home where he was pretty much locked outside all day, and locked in the laundry all night, with NOTHING in b...

Those two Kyosho's truly are magnificent. Very nice indeed! Today, for the first time in years, I pulled the B3 off the shelf, blew the dust off, fitted some electronics (Reedy 3300kV, Reedy SC600BL, XP servo, Futaba clone Rx), and drove it around the track for a few laps. What a car! As much as the...
