Unlike most of the shows scheduled during this COVID crisis that were either canceled or postponed, the guys in Arizona decided that the show must go on. I decided that it was a perfect opportunity to participate in at least one show this year, and I didn't even have to get out of my Lazy Boy to do so.  I was extremely honored and very happy to have been awarded a 1st place in the factory stock category, as well as a "Master Award" for best interior for my '68 Olds 442 W-30. I also received a 2nd place plaque in the Street Machine category for my '65 Plymouth Fury.  The plaques arrived today. Thank you to the judges at the DSC V16!!         Steve Congrats! Your Olds is the best ever built, absolutely beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchook Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I entered the Desert Scale Classic virtual show  & was shocked to learn I too got something for my old Willys wrecker. This is the first contest I entered in about 30 years, it was fun & easy. Thanks to everyone that had something to do with this great experience.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robberbaron Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Stopped at my LHS yesterday after work and was able to FINALLY snag one of the new release Revell '29 Model A roadsters. Told me they've been flying off the shelf as fast as he can stock them. Also stopped by Michaels the other day and got another '32 Ford 5-window with their 50% off coupon. Can't have too many of those, just for parts.

This is my second of these but this one is complete (my other had flaking decals and no tyres) I was lucky to get it for less than half the price they normally go for as it was listed as ertl with no mention of esci. Does anyone know if this had 2 releases? this one is molded in blue, but my other is molded in a very dark blue/almost black. I could possibly let one of them go if someone has an ertl farm plough or trailer kit (built up or unbuilt) as I have a few tractors to build and the scale difference wouldn't be so obvious with farm stuff i think some of them had the rally body in the Box,that was light blue,i have had a couple of them,just love the zakspeed cersion,have 10 of them in my pile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
