Lunajammer Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 You guys talk about models you built in the "good old days" when I was just a few years old, and it blows my mind that you guys were building models this beautiful back then, with what you had at the time. Gorgeous job! Thanks so much for the compliment Ben. But actually you give me too much credit. I consider this period to be the modeling Renaissance. Aftermarket products were coming out of nowhere, multiple car modeling magazines on the shelves and paints were getting better and broader. I would say there's nothing on this build that predated anything today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTalmage Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Wow thats a gorgeous build. Man... if I had a car like that in real life... I'd need no other car.... I always thought DeSoto's were probably the most gorgeous car of their day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Very nice! That's the color scheme on the box as well as the original brochure. I tried to duplicate it back in early 1980s and failed miserably. Betcha I could do it now ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
