Sure ya do!!!  Okay...here we go........  Several parts, here. This is a re-issue kit, with parts from a few different versions. On the chrome tree, there is this nice wheel, and three headlights:  There's only one of those wheels. Th e engine heads had a bunch of extra plastic:  I removed the molded in distributor, in favor of a Morgan Automotive Details pre-wired version:  More to come, in a bit. Nice looking bits'n pieces |

Engine block had a nice, ugly notch in it:   So, I filled it in:  Here it is, so far:  |

Was that ugly notch for a metal axle to go through? |

Sorry Joe, but that doesn't even look like a Stang.

Dang it!!! Sorry to disappoint, going as fast as I can... leveling this rotten ol' yellow barn board floor is a big undertaking, lmao!!! Got under the bookshelves this morning, now to reload them. Then tear down the model table and lay the rest of the floor...  |

Are those a couple Disco Mirror Balls in the back...in their carrying cases? Also, what are your tiles made of? And is that plywood you are using as an underlayment? If so, how thick is it? I may be interested in doing something like this in my Hobby Room. |

Armstrong peel and stick vinyl tiles,12"×12"... 1/2" plywood underlayment... and those are two exercise balls... the big one I actually use as a chair sometimes as it helps my back...

Old floor was just pine boards, very uneven... I just screwed the plywood sheets down nice and tight...

I'm taking notes. My subfloor, under the carpet, is just OSB. Not ideal for vinyl tile.

You can buy a stronger glue to spread and lay the tiles on that...
