Took me 2 years to air brush it perfect. I don't know what happens to it, one of those things that just disappears with roommates and stuff when young. I don't know if I could build it as good now with my F-ed up hands, but I would like to try.

Reissued in 2012 so should be easy to get.

Still, only ones I can find are on eBay from Japanese sellers in the $60 to $80 range, and they don't come with the electric motor. Having a tough time pulling the trigger for that price.

Most model kits run in that range now. An decent Japanese kit costs at least $40 and can go as high as $200. The days of the $2 kit are long in the past.

I didn't get any pie last night. Found out that the boys had already killed it.

happy thanksgiving guys!



Careful on the roads today!

WRX girl (the one i mentioned a while back with an rx7fc) just wished me a happy thanksgiving too Todays a good day.

Now if only I'd asked her for her number this time, instead of just thanking her for saying the new wheels look good on my car like them on her wrx (same wheels).



My best conversation after that?

Me: "So uh, you have 18's on your wrx, right?"
Her: "yeah! what did you get?"
Me: "17's! Kind of like that fitment on my car and they're a bit lighter then."
Her: "Wow, you should've gotten 18's like me! They're gramlights so they're already pretty light."

Me:

Me asking about wheel sizes is as bad as saying "ah, it's such a nice day out!"

We have a Russian brothel nearby. No conversation needed. Much easier ��

My God Spike. It's a girl. Ask her if she would like to go out some time. Worst thing that could happen is she would say no.
