Thanks It was pretty easy and a quick job. Toothbrush and simple green first. Then rinsed in sink with the sprayer. Next, blown dry w...

My vintage rc habits have been put on hold all summer as I got more involved with the drag racing side of the hobby. I decided to combine the two, and this is the result.

Just a heads up, anyone who wants something fast and modern and cheap to bash with, or if you've seen what folks online are doing with these things, the WLToys 144001 is already a screaming deal for less than $80.

I don't know if this will be helpful but you might have a look at the rear wheels on the Tamiya DT 01 Fighter Buggy. The wheel's design reminds me of those from the Optima Mid, they are 12mm hex drive, and if they are from the "Memorial" version, they are beautifully gold plated. My old bu...

We have been contracted from Thumbs to do a box art resto on his Dominator! So is there an order form or website for this contract work? :D No, but "thumbs" did say if it turns out nice me and the "diamond one" will be financially stable and wont have to work anymore if we choos...

Here is my Clodbuster, Midnight Pumpkin and Monster Beetle

The wife signed us with to foster three 3 month old boxers. This will be really interesting. Lol!

Different view than usual tonight.

When your extra large dog figures out what the arm rest is for.

Don’t remember if I ever shared this picture and story. Working on a job site and these two came running up all excited. One was a handful the other was a calm sweetie. Picture is pretty obvious which is which. The boss was on site for a short while so we hopped in his pickup truck and drove around ...
