  1. Very nicely done Dave, great tribute!
  2. Nice job so far making that simple lightbar look more realistic. But I'm used to that from you.
  3. Chuck...RA Unit is an LA term for rescue ambulance. Every major city has their own terminology, ranging from codes to simple words. In NYC, the most common term for an ambulance is "bus". "Get me a bus forthwith Central...this guy's checking out!"
  4. So great to see your builds again. Excellent job as usual.
  5. Dave, you're SOL on a 78 Catalina, plastic, resin or die cast in 1/25. The only close one I know of is the resin NEO American Excellence Bonneville in 1/43.
  6. Just...WOW. But we've come to expect that from you.
  7. His columns were a big influence on my early model building. RIP to Lou and thanks to you for sharing this great find.
  8. Good for Greg, well deserved. I have seen the work in progress over the years, and can only imagine the finished model. Can't wait to see the photos.
  9. Well great job on it. That's one of the most realistic pavement bases I've seen.
  10. Very nice. Represents the prototype very well.
  11. Great model, but your photos are terrific. Tell us about your "pavement" base. It makes the scene look so real.
  12. They make some really nice pieces. But I'd be crazy to start collecting in another scale, one is enough!
  13. Dan...Missing Link has one out in resin...much better quality than the Otaki kit, IMO.
  14. Superb!!
  15. Looks great, go get some air Looks like the bounce off the floor didn't cause any major damage, thankfully.
  16. That is very nice, job well done. Any pics of the denim interior?
  17. Love it, very main stream...
  18. Looks even better in person...great job and well deserving of the award.
  19. Very sad indeed. He made a lot unique products that no one else would even try to do. Most of all, he was a nice guy, a pleasure to talk with. A void will be felt.
  20. I was going through some old photos lately and came across this collection of 1/24 muscle cars by Monogram that I built about 12 years ago. As I recall, the kits weren't super detailed, but built up to be very nice replicas in their own right. Its weird that this 'odd' scale was used so often by Monogram back then, when 1/25 had pretty much dominated the market. But I digress... Anyway, here goes. I only had 1 image of each of them... 69 Coronet Super Bee... 70 Superbird 71 Hemi Cuda 69 GTO 64 GTO 70 Chevelle SS
  21. Here are a few oldies... 61 Pontiac Tempest, restored from a glue bomb a few years back...painted in authentic GM 61 color, with Modelhaus chrome. Does an 80s Chevy Corsica count?
  22. Very nice, both the model and 1:1
