Superb detail work on that engine. -

This is a cool project. It reminds me of my 74 Hurst/Olds I completed last year. Following. -
I got two of my boys to do a couple. They like being with me but I think the work-to-reward factor was not as satisfying as video games.

Great job on some rarely seen automobiles.

I agree. It is one of my favorite color combos. -
My relationship, hobby and wife, is just like yours. I agree. My situation is similar.

Subject definitely. As a Day-two Muscle car fan. I am fortunate to have a whole lot of choices available. I look in my display cabinet and check my Ford, GM, Mopar balance and then pick 3-4 kits to bring the lowest count closer in balance to the others. I do batch builds so that I can be slightly more efficient with my time and can learn and correct issues on all of them at the same time. I also mix in a Semi (or two) for change of pace. I have a few kits I really want to come out spectacular but I am waiting for my skillset and techniques to improve before I tackle those.

That turned out quite beautiful.
-
High quality work. That interior is awesome.

Very nice! The kit in this color is on my to do list. My (eventual) best man had an orange 1:1 a few years before I got married.

What does "NNL" stand for?
Bills72sj replied to spudmuffin1959's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I like the sound of the NNL concept, though I have never had the privileged of attending one. I have been to a few local shows over the last couple of decades. I simply enjoy sharing my builds and seeing the amazing work others have done. If I win an award great, I have been pleasantly surprised in doing so about a dozen times now. I am never disappointed if I do not. I am happy to get to share some time with like minded enthusiasts. -
Thank you, Tony. It would make a good 1000 piece puzzle too. Thank you, Gary. Look on Craigslist, or thrift stores that sell furniture. Also swing by estate sales. Thank you, David. It has been decades in the making. Thanks for sharing Greg. I have met folks online that have acquired store fixtures like that. My house is too small and still primarily decorated by my wifeI do not have any room to add any more display cases. Thank you, Tom. I was lucky to find additional glass shelves cheap.

Well done. A nice, believable compilation of pieces. -
Very impressive. I am a fan of your very high standards in detail and finishes.
