WOW! Way kool, Brother! When I saw this debuted in Salt Lake at the GSL XXVIII I knew there was going to be several builders that wanted to know more about this amazing '29 A Roadster! Then seeing you surrounded by six or eight top modelers asking question after question, I knew you had made your presents known! Your style and execution are spot on and only gets better with every new model you build! Your eye for what it takes to finish your projects, as if they are the real thing, can only come from your years of experience building and restoring 1:1 museum automobilia. Now, in the scale world, so many others are learning from your experience and awesome tutelage! Always grateful for the having you as a friend and mentor, Brother. -KK

Only you can make a silk Not Certain T from a sow's Infini-T rail-job! Certainly not a project for the faint of heart... -KK

Waldo, we've talked about this project so many times and watching you take the steps to achieve your plan is almost as enjoyable as building it myself! Hours staring at the molded kit parts and what changes need to be done in a most determined order is all part of what it takes to build a street-able one-to-one version, but in scale! What you are doing is amazing, and the result will be a reflection of what could be a real-life Super Nova! -KK

UPDATE! There is still a bit of chatter over at MCM about this thread and the contributors that have participated in this tribute to @tim boyd! With over 70K views and 700+ comments, this has to be one of the longest running group-build threads here on the forum! I want to applaud @Dennis Lacy for starting the 1929-ford-pickup-80s-contemporary-street-rod-a-tim-boyd-tribute thread and the model builders that made this topic such a major success! With the inspiration that @tim boyd has provided over the lifetime of my model building career, and that of so many other model builders as well as 1:1 car guys & gals... this has to be one of the most rewarding modeling efforts that I can recall in the last 4 decades! Greatly appreciated, Kit Karson aka Wes Hofferber -KK

KKK, it may have been "what should have been", but it took your expert skills & keen eye to bring these two Vega's together into one sharp flip-top funny car! -KK
