Maybe I haven't paid my bill??  Sent in a Question to support. Nothing like uploading everything twice.  |

You won't believe this, but Photo Bucket is: "we are currently experiencing issues with our data center". They are working on the problem. In the mean time, I uploaded all the pics again and wasted another hour. Aren't ya glad?!  |

My biggest problem with Photo Bucket, is everything I've posted for the last 12 years is in there. If they go, then I go. Oh well, more Negative Vibrations. Question? How do you upload GIF images?  |

And so I see. One thing I do know, is that even though resin kits are handy and save a lot of fabrication, they take a little finessing at times. Added a little Mr. Surfacer 500 around the Browning 50 Cal gun port to give the appearance of being welded on and cover up fit issues. Cleaning up parts and starting to build the hot little Cobra motor, which will be propelling all this armor plating around. The weight of the Mustang might increase a bit.   Also cleaning up seam lines and flash. |

A little heavier? Yeah, that's for sure! Ever hefted a Ma Deuce? darn near a hundred pounds, without cradle or ammo box. And then there's the armor, and those decidedly-not-stock wheels, and so on. What this car will need is something like what the half-life War Boys did to Max's car in Fury Road:. A blower feeding a second blower, both blowing into a huge carb & intake...plus nitrous.

Beekster: Kaching! Blowers sound good.  Bucky: Thanks. This will probably be my last year with PB. This is a fun build. That's why I build models. To have fun and spend lots of money............. in scale of course.  |

Lets compare a 1:1 car blower = $ 1 K 1:25 car blower ( Resin ) = $5 I call that scale. To build this Model Mustang + Resin Kit + Wide Tires = $ 100 1:1 Shelby Mustang GT 350H ( Barn Yard Find ) $ 30,000 + Browning 50 Cal. Machine Gun, + 1/2 in. Armor Plate Steel, +, +, + ............................................ I call that scale. Oh yeh, left out Divorce and Alimony, + $ Million.  |
