My latest photoshoot

Cody - build models until the cows come home and post them to anyone that opens the file. I certainly built a butt-load of models in my youth like the big scale General Lee....1/16, I think. When I get old and can't drive anymore and have to shuffle with my walker, I will probably resort to taking up model building again. And to add, I have certainly seen worse posts. Carry on...

Believe me, we've had words. Haven't we Cody?

I'm glad to hear that.  While it's good that we don't have to endure his "why doesn't anyone love me here?" topics, I'm really not sure that dreamy posts like this are any more endearing:

"And also, I have no 3rd Generation Chargers YET. Im working on a 68 Firebird right now and I plan on building a 71 RT next"

The topic is models. Someone asked before if he had any third gen models and that was his answer.

By the way, I'll be in "the land of fruits and nuts" at the end of this month. ;) Where are you in relation to Santa Clara? I'd like to try out those jet pants - I hear they're pretty hot.

I thought of some excelllent commentary to defend/support my postion, but in the end, its Troy's website, and Troy's rules. You have to respect that.  Like an adult, you take your lumps.  In this case the children have won.  I'll be "watching from a distance" but not posting anymore - to protect the intellect and intregrity of others.  LL1 1967 Coronet out at 204...

Why make a post bashing someone? Just don't open the post and don't comment if you don't have anything to add....



Cody, is the '71 R/T model the one that has a lime or puke green picture on the box?

ouch, i think i just got spanked by Troy :'( your right Troy, we do get out of hand some time. Sorry.

Cody, i apologize to you too, i think i put in my posts that i was ribbing, but if i hurt you im sorry. sometimes people just go with the flow. i would much rather read a post about where your at on your charger, what youve tore down, planing to replace, motor choice, that would get you a good learning discussion going.

Troy, did you ever go get a compressor from Eaton's?

I'm playing nice when I say this - - He is very good at building cars with the "rotting in junkyard theme". He should build a replica of his own Charger, in primer, missing  hood, rust, whatever, etc. and then show it off to us in a post. I'm sure we would all get a big kick outta that, and he could have a 'before" and "after" version of his car. To me, that would be a good use of his time...and rewarding for us, the viewer.  I'm sorry if anybody takes this as "bashing"





Thats actually a GREAT IDEA!!!! And btw, it has a hood and its on it right now ;). And nobody has ever hurt my feelings. Ive just gotten a little annoyed but not sad or hurt. And Drache, the 71 RT on the box is yellow

Why is there no handle on the jack in your signature pic?

Dude, it's called sarcasm.

The faster you pick it up, the better we'll all be.  :icon_smile_big:

Seriously, there is a whole world of snappy come-backs and hidden meaning out there.

In the words of Fyodor Dostoevsky: "Sarcasm: the last refuge of modest and chaste-souled people when the privacy of their soul is coarsely and intrusively invaded."

Well, hopefully your soul hasn't been invaded, but if it has been, get tested. :2thumbs:

On the other hand, Thomas Carlyle said, "Sarcasm is the language of the devil, for which reason I have long since as good as renounced it."

I guess I'm listening to the wrong shoulder. :D

You should do more of that type of thing..

Im trying to but my stupid digital camera uses the batteries in about 15 minutes and since I dont have any brand new ones, it used 2 sets of batteries in 10 minutes. And I cant find anymore batteries around here and theres not a store for over 10km's. But I tried doing a jump over this muddy dry ditchin the front yard and I got a great take off shot but then the camera ran out. Its funny though too because somehow the front valance got all muddy and dirty from the jump pics I have done. AND, I recentley re-installed the grille in the General Lee model after that death defying jump over the pond :D

Sometimes I wish I had a sarcasm detector (to go along with my jet pants).  Man, that would be a good invention...

Well, I gotta get back to solving global warming before lunchtime.  I've got a three way scheduled with Shania Twain & Faith Hill over the lunch hour.  I'm doing my own Lasik surgery this afternoon. 

Man I sure miss those lazy days when I could snap pics of my model cars...before my batteries died.
