    Thanks Casey, I guess it was about time.............. when I read the post about another one biting the dust, I thought, no I don't want to see this one go down or rather slow to a crawl, like one other I belong to and there is good passion here, so I thought I could at least try to chat with the gays if nothing else... and try to check in regularly, if possible to keep these cool places alive and going...

    Brian............ a couple of points here............ first is, I haven't commented on your absolutely spectacular build of the I conic B 61, precise build, and nailed the colors right on. The interior tub, is perfect, the color and very subtle wash, brought out the details exactly right, in my eye anyway, also............... I have had my eye on this kit and a couple conversions for years, but am a little intimidated by a full resin build.............obviously the quality is there and I have been to the AITM website hundreds of times..... the big question is, what did you use for the windshield glass, and was it difficult to make and install? And is the kit worth the cost..... I am in British Columbia, so for an $80.00 kit for example, it translates to almost $120.00 with exchange and shipping and what ever those wonderful guys at the border decide to charge me.... so I have or should be a bit sure of an expensive purchase.... but YOUR results are spectacular Jeff

    It was , but it made a real truck driver out of a guy who was interested in learning it, nowadays, automatics, seem to be just 'steering' a truck, kind of seems, to me, the true skill is getting lost, but that is just me.... I used to love these two sticks... would like to try my hand at them again just for fun...

    I can't access Jamies site, is anyone else having that issue, I am on Firefox, and I get this thing that comes up about X Frames or some computer jargon, anyway, there is no way I can get on his site....
