  1. Hi Greg, if you look at the 3rd pic (= the 2nd model pic), you can recognize the segments on the windshield that are cleaned by the wipers.
  2. Up to now, I didn't even know this kit existed - it is a really weird creation; I saw the real custom 50 years ago in the book "the craziest cars of the world" from 1971
  3. This is as good as it gets, Anders - superb color and execution and awsome photography, too - when seeing such perfect models, I have the urge to sell off all my kits...
  4. all very nice models - I've built the very first version in about 1983, then under the Monogram name - box stock, with the addition of a headache rack from amt's KW Alaskan Hauler to hide the tabs on the backside of the sleeper.
  5. Very nice model of one of my favourite trucks!
  6. Very nice, Doug - I built this one almost 40 years ago, and its wheels were too small back then - this one looks much better (look like the former ERTL wheels)
  7. Looks great, Dave - both of them! You see these early GT40's very seldom as built-ups!
  8. Great news - my second holy grail in model trucking after the Peterbilt California Hauler (little window) - simply a must-have!
  9. Simply fantastic - with another background it could go for the real thing ! Road grime, dirt, dust and diesel fuel - and above all theworn-out, bleached color of this rig - great work! I will save the pics as inspiration for my own kit.
  10. Outstanding models, Jürgen - great sense of humour and nice photography, too !
  11. Well built model of a famous racing car of two legendary drivers. I have only once seen this kit (built-up) - it must be 30 yrs. ago...
  12. Unbelievable, Thomas: it took me 20 years to get ONE model done - and you build 20 models in ONE year!!! The '64 Galaxie is my favourite of these, but all look very nice.
  13. Very nice model, Yuri - great to be in the world wide modeling community and have the possibility - in this case - as Austrian to admire the work of a Russian fellow who built an excellent model of a legendary American car! Excellent photography, too!
  14. Very nice line up, Gary - these are my favourite race cars - most impressive models!
  15. Goodness gracious, Kurt - while it took me 21 years to finish one model, you built that many in just one year (I did not count) - as a sports racers fan, I like the Chaparral 2 J most!

    My 2020

    x 2 : superb color combinations especially on the '56 Del Ray and the Hudson Convertible, also the Aperta in this light blue metallic - great !
  17. Amazing model you made here, Janos, - this has been really a long-term-project !
  18. Some very nice builds you have here, Angel - several could go as a box cover model, such as the Peterbilt wrecker (Like the box cover of my very first truck model in 1982) or the Movin' On KW!
  19. Very well done, Brian - I also like the Johnson Transtar best - but also the others, especially the seldom ones like the White 9000 and the International Conventional.
  20. Excellent model, Graham ! This proves again that old iron looks best in trucking.
  21. Initially I came here to learn something new about Revell's new E-type, instead I read hard discussions about 1/24 vs. 1/25 kits - let's take it this way: to each his own! My American trucks and cars are 1/25, my European sports cars, rally cars and race cars are almost all in 1/24 scale (apart from some 1/20 F 1 and Tamiya's old 1/18 racers). They will not be presented side by side on the same shelf! Question for the 1/25 US-car scale defenders: how do the old Monogram American 1/24 models fit into this?
  22. Car-model-kit in Czech Republic has it already for sale - see link: https://www.car-model-kit.com/plastic-modelkit-auto-07668-jaguar-e-type-coupe-1-24 But beware: one of the pics shows the old (ex-Monogram) 1/8 Jag : the one without the rear-view mirrors, the higher windshield and the wipers pointing to the left !
  23. x 2 - very nice - and those wipers: very delicate !!!
  24. The proportions on the Fujimi kit are a bit off - Hasegawa has done it better, but: Excellent build, Chang - especially in this rarely seen color !
  25. Wonderful model, Denis - great photography, too !
