Welcome to the forum, Steve. Good to have you aboard.

That's a very juicy group of kits. I have nothing to add of value, but I am interested to know more about the BMW M1 kits pictured. Which is the better kit? Any input anyone may have regarding those kits is appreciated.

Looking good. The '68 was my favourite Dart. It will be cool with the vinyl roof.

Clearly, camping is a pursuit for those not in a hurry. Not necessarily the same story for those poor saps stuck behind it on narrow country roads...

I sometimes mask surfaces to be glued, if it is convenient to do so, but mostly I scrape the joint surface clean before gluing.

Nice. Are they an aftermarket set or an old kit set?

Great looking Roadrunner. Nice colour, and I love the understated style. All round great build, I love it! Now, I just wish Fireball would do something about those dog dish hubcaps.

Adding the silver to the black window gaskets really is a significant detail. Looking good.

Great looking Chaparral. Well done on the rear wheels, perhaps this simple kit's biggest failing. A rear wheel of the proper depth makes all the difference in the overall look. All round nice work.

A lovely little Morgan, Justin. Nicely done.

Nice looking Avanti. Such unique and interesting cars, quite striking in 1:1, as is your model. The silver looks great. Nice work. I have had one in my stash for many years, trying to figure out what to do with it. Seeing yours, I'm thinking it's time I dug it out and put it on the bench.

Cool project. Looking forward to seeing this one come together.

I would like to build one of these two. I also have a clean-built '59 Lincoln for which I've been trying to think of an interesting project. Hhhmmm...🤔 I really like the Ford, actually. A nice compact set-up. That's the one I would like to build. That's an interesting apparatus on the roof. Some type of cooler? I also noticed it's a right driver. Australian?

I am impressed with that mask job. Cool little streamliner.

There is some fine model building going on here. Very nice work, and very interesting project.
