​@petesmodelcarcustoms584 Yes, you're right about casual with cars, but here you have car lovers putting any size motor and drive train in to any auto makers car, no matter the year. Your can have 32 Ford and a Chevy mill, part are cheeper😊 But on the other hand You want a p51 or a Mk9 Spitfire with the full motor of a Merlin 61, you have your hands full with fuselage thickness problems. Tanks are easy to super detail I done many full interiors with scratch built every thing. All have their challenges that I love.

Well, a very good scratch build, bring back some memories of a certain car I did. Yes I have used the hot water treatment. Never tried it with coffee, styreen the other sweetener 😊 I alway wanted a little hole cutter. I will have to look for it. There is no getting used to metric, in the US. I get upset when I go to the auto parts store and say I need this . What size motor 366cubic inch. They stare at me, ok 6 liter. What is the trucks tonnage? I say 3/4 ton. another icy stair K2500. Is it four wheel drive , I said, "K, that means four wheel drive in Chevy language." Lol it's here to some extent. I only say the Mets measurements for the people living out of the US.😊

Pete , I have a story for you. I went to a model show many years ago. There was a man there selling new Jo-Han models without the box. I bought the AMC Rambler kit. I asked him about it. He says he used to work at the Jo-Han factory. The boxes were destroyed in a fire. Just before the placed closed. He said they were having a hard time getting paid. Because the company was running out of money. Some people even took tooling to a scrap yard to get money. From one factory Rat to another 🏭🐁
