louie Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Hi everyone. My name is jeff hughes and I am just getting back into the great hobby of model cars. Please bear with me as the computer-Internet-thing is all new to me. I have as they say been living in the stone age. My excellent and wonderful nephew had to help me set up my account on the forum but hey I'm Learning and trying. Well I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello to everyone and also to say that I love model cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxer Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Welcome from the west coast of MA. There are plenty of forum members from your end of MA and some great model car clubs. Feel free to ask anything here ... even computer help. A good percentage of the members here have build models when young and come back to the hobby after a life break.

charlie8575 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Hi, Jeff, and welcome from Marlborough.MassCar Model Club usually meets the 3rd Wednesday of most months (this month we had to change due to a facility availability issue,) at the Porter & Chester Institute on the Canton/Stoughton line, right off of 139. We have a couple of guys that live over your way in Weymouth, Braintree and Quincy.Feel free to come to any meeting. Turn left in the driveway, head to the auto-shop and enter through the door next to the garage, and head upstairs. Smell for the paint and glue.

louie Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 Hi Charlie and hi 1930 ford pickup. Charlie absolutely I would love to go to a mass car model meeting. I was looking at my calendar and august might not work unfortunately for me but any 3rd Wednesday after August would be great. I have been wanting to get involved with a Model car group but did not know where to start so thank you Charlie for the information and inviting me to masscar. 1 questions I have is what are the times start to finish. And 1930 fordpickup I am really trying to get out of the stone age and into the 21st century. It's mostly with the computer and Internet stuff that I am behind with. Well thanks guysTake care.

JeffHi, Jeff.There's usually someone at the building by about 6:00-6:30; the meetings start nominally at 7:00 and usually run until 9:00 or 10:00. Also, as a heads-up, Classic Plastic, the other club in Masachusetts, has their show on October 5, I think (the first Sunday in October,) at the Elks in Lawrence. Very easy to get to- 93 to Exit 46 (River Rd.,) turn left off the ramp, go a couple of miles down, and the Elks is on the left. A car pool can be arranged in all likelihood with the guys in your neck of the woods. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
