  1. Welcome Brent.
  2. I built one of these recently. Kit is fiddly in areas but can produce a nice looking truck.
  3. Another nice Escort Bruce. It's nice to have this kit back in production. I recently picked up a resin trans-kit of the Monte Carlo Tarmac Special. The body is nicely cast but the rear fender shape isn't quite right.
  4. I'm holding out hope Beemax might surprise us David. They have been doing some interesting old school race/rally cars.
  5. Wish a 1/24 scale Anglia plastic could would be produced, I'll be following
  6. Turned out great James.
  7. I messaged with him before I ordered the resin copy of the Moebius engine and he promised he could ship within 2-weeks. Four weeks later no shipping notice and he wouldn't answer my messages about when I could expect to receive the engine. I ended up filing a claim through ebay to recover my payment. Won't order from him again.
  8. This build sets a new standard particularly in this scale - bravo Tim! Can't wait to see what you take on next, I hope it's the Maverick P/S.
  9. Hill's Dirty Thirty would be a good companion.
  10. Looks like a great project Phil, I'm in.
  11. The 917/3.0 RSR style wheels are interesting.
  12. I enjoyed trading with you too Scott8950. Happy to trade with you again Scott.
  13. If it's not fun then you are doing it wrong!
  14. Nice to see this kit in a different livery.
  15. Great builds.
  16. Nice work Bruce.

    Cunningham C4

    Another very impressive build by Scott and thank you Gary for making the effort to share these builds with us.
  18. The early 356s (A/earlyB) had the smaller rounded bonnet: The later cars (late B/C) was larger, more square: You will also note the difference in wheel style used.
  19. Hearsay but if true his Boss had the appropriate response to the color name suggestion: The most interesting part of the story came when he told me that after he mixed the paint color, sprayed a few test panels, and was approached by his boss. His boss asked what he intended to name the new color, to which he replied..."STATUTORY GRAPE!":wow: His boss then wryly asked him if he wanted to turn in his resignation that day or wait until tomorrow, insinuating that another name must be chosen...which lead to "Plum Crazy" https://www.challengerforumz.com/threads/interesting-trivia-about-plum-crazy.51198/
  20. Nice looking chassis.
  21. Civilized Debate in today's environment? Unfortunately not very likely.
  22. Glad you are an active member of the forum Bill.
