I'm still looking for the words for that! -MJS

They sure didn't think it would someday be worth 10 million-plus when they filmed that! -MJS

As a major Falcon nut, I'm I'm all the way on this one. Already reminds me of the drawings I used to make in school when I really should have been doing something else. -MJS

As is evidenced here and on the HAMB with their weekly Model Car Sunday, some of the most impressive builders in the world come from France. What's in that Perrier anyway? -MJS

Put a Boss 429 in it to make the box art correct. -MJS

I appreciate the Doctors' excellent spelling and punctuation. The other type of poster makes my eyes hurt. -MJS

Such as what? Pretty much all of the popular cars have been done at one time or another, and now kit manufacturers have to go with 2nd and 3rd tier subjects to come up with cars that have truly never been done. Everyone can name a car that they would love to see and may even buy several of, but it may bomb hard enough to put that manufacturer into the red - and so they must be very careful before considering that '81 AMC Eagle 4x4 kit. -MJS

I have a few originals of each, Comet reissues are common, a Maverick re-tooled into a Grabber would be a nice new release. -MJS

My Dad bought a '73 Vega brand new in Boston. In one year, it had rust all around the windshield.(?) One day, he got pulled over for no license plate. The rear valance was plastic, and broke off taking the plate with it. It blew a head gasket, and was at the dealer more often than it was on the road. Before lemon laws, nothing could be done about it. He used to joke that the car was made out of green wall paper. He traded it in under two years for a Datsun 200SX, a car that pretty much never broke. Vegas were nice looking cars in a mini-Camaro way, but they had so many problems, that few remember them with any kind of enthusiasm. -MJS

Those are some seriously big cupcakes. -MJS

Amazing scratchbuilding! -MJS

It would never work on the real cars. The Saleen is an SN-95 chassis, (modified Fox) and the '05-up is the S-197. The SN mufflers would be under the gas tank, which is why the newer car puts the mufflers at the back of the car. -MJS

Beautiful, and a very unlikely sleeper - because in 1:1, that would be a $15K car with a $150K engine. -MJS

Box stock, 1:25 scale. -MJS

Here is the Ertl diecast/bank 1960 4x4 truck. -MJS

I wish we knew more about the Revell LX coupe, because if it was going to be a few years down the road, I'd be happy to master a 1:25 aero coupe. -MJS

Only one word: Exquisite. -MJS

New wheels are a major improvement. -MJS

I believe that was a Juha Airio master. -MJS

Very impressive build. I'd say use te Monogram 2pc shaft, extending the rear span with another shaft or Plastruct rod. -MJS

Mexico got a 2dr version, one 4dr was built and delivered to a Saudi prince. -MJS

Back in the '80s, the only stock '67 and '68 fastbacks were the original issue AMT and MPC kits, which were rare and expensive. But those Iron Horse kits weren't, so I combined one of them with a '68 Shelby and a few parts box items to make a stock '68 fastback. Times have changed. -MJS

I wish one of these would come my way. -MJS

Another slam dunk from the Modelhaus. How much more correct looking can that truck be? -MJS
