If it's a beer, I'll drink it. Don't tell Halgar, but I'll even drink the hoppy stuff. But man a cold Busch Light sounds amazing right now.

The tires sound like they might be natural rubber. I can't remember the actual component.....but when I did fleet maintenance, there was some damn rubber component/part that I.......bingo, it was air intake pipes/boots. They would get kinda chalky from time-to-time... Long story short, I would scrub...

These are neoprene...

Was 50% off. Not bad. But it's a 7.9%ABV which was a surprise.

$75 to $100 per run on mid-power engines....I could do better with High power long burn engines, but I can't get them!..need a license

Reminded me of "Heat" when Val Kilmer has to buy the explosives in Arizona.

Really, really, really nice build. I appreciate the total commitment to period correctness. I know I don't have that level of discipline with my builds.

Got a steaming pile of Durango parts in the mail.... Durango Parts.jpg There is an almost complete 410R truck there, in mostly unopened bags.... going to take me a while to work out what's missing. Started on the open bags last night, and will move on to the plastics next. Shame the manual doesn't ...

Someone (not sure if they are member here or not) posted an unboxing video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw3Kwiru5pc ... I happened upon that video yesterday. "Dope", "rad" - after the forth "dude", I mashed the mute button. :lol: I was amazed at the amazement of al...

bonus question 4) Any way to keep vanilla white nylon from becoming yellow over time? Thanks! I really think the only way is to keep it from UV exposure and air contaminates (smoke/oils [don't store it on top of oven hood vent while smoking Lucky Strikes and pan-frying bacon]). Then it's just a mat...

I say slap it on. I think gear covers for Stealth with hydra can be found. I saw one somewhere recently...

Edit: Not if you are gonna run it though. But for display of goodies of the era.

Wms is good, Ive ordered off them a few times. Just dont tell anyone about em :shock: :mrgreen: Dang it! You never know when you're gonna "out" someone's super secret source. I've noticed some places dried up after I opened my big mouth in the past. Probably just coincidence....gotta watc...

Our cars showed up at our LHS on Friday.

No Pepsi Clear in the foreground? Had to go with Dasani?

Kyosho W-5632's!

Can you ever really be "out of RC"? If your stuff went into a box at some point but you still had it, you're into it, just on pause. 1987-2000, pause, 2010ish -present. Newest thing owned was a 1/18 Slash. Fun for about 7 minutes, buyer's regret set in and I went right back to the older st...

Lotta dudes with GoPro's strapped to their domes out there now. POV stuff. Drones and stuff. As far as clothing? There might be more of a synthetic fiber count in some of the T-shirts? I know the pastel OP corduroy short shorts aren't "cool" anymore. Not alot of mid-calf gold-toe socks wit...
