Why not? My Class of 2008

Recommended Posts

I was not planning on compiling a list of my completed cars for 2008, but since many of you did, I figured why not, and yes, if you guys were all jumping off a bridge, I guess I would too, besides, I would not want to be the only guy posting pictures to myself on this site.

So here is my class of 2008. I posted them in the order that I finished them this past year. A total of 9 cars and trucks completed and all but one were posted on the forum this past year. Amazingly, I have yet to suffer a “builders block†as I work on my cars at least 6, but mostly 7 nights a week.

January Corvette Sunray Cutaway

Man, everybody is posting up such great stuff! I'm feeling real shameful that I didn't finish a single model this year!

I love the Auburn, real artsy. It reminds me of that sculpture by Stanley Wanlass. The cutaway Vette is a great idea and well executed. I always love a custom '50 Chev PU. I have a soft spot of El Caminos so any phantom pickup body on a car platform gets my attention, and yours is well designed, so often the design on these types are phantoms are all off.

I love this retrospective thing. I missed so many of these superb builds. One I didn't miss was the "Cybele" and it's one of the highlights on the MCM board for '08 IMHO. I agree, the '58 impala is a knockout and I really like the cutaway 'Vette, too. Maybe after people mention their faves you might post some links to the Under Glass for some these.
