Hey gang, I’m trying to locate the decals for Newbomb Turks “pie wagon” from Hollywood Knights. I found them a few years ago but never ordered them, and have since forgotten the name of the supplier. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! Roger

Was just wondering if anyone would happen to have a set of nice chrome wheels that came in the MPC Super Street 56 vette !? I bought one from the bay and the chrome is terrible, think I can get by with most all the parts except the rims !? Thanks for any help...Roger

Welcome to the site ! these guys on here do some amazing work just look around ,there was a really detailed"how to" on weathering awhile back ,go under searches, but the wood grain look is pretty much the same technique ,takes some practice tho,but thats one thing cool about wood grain its not perfect and theres lots of color choices !! look at walmart in the crafts dept. those little .50 cent bottles of paint work great and theres a ton of colors ,go from dark to light until it looks like you want. and there water base so if you dont like it ,wash it off and try again ! hope that helps...Rog

Krylon dull aluminum is what ive always used on my drag kits ! dries quick and does not rub off ive always had good luck with it .make sure its the old style tip though those new fan sprayers suck and the paint is different also ,have to get it from a jobber though ,no longer available from walmarts

hey clowns !! received my missing part for my LIL STOGIE from Round2Models ,and during our e-mails I asked the guy helping me if we might see any more show rods any time soon,he said "it was safe to say we would be seeing more of the show rods ,slowly but surely " ,so you guys keep your fingers crossed !! of course it might be hard to build that way but you know what i mean ;D ...Roger
