There will be a few of us from WV driving up to attend.

How cool is that!! Such nice paint jobs on all four!

Nice model Jared. Really cool idea taking pictures of it before you did the weathering. You did a great job on the weathering.

Gorgeous build! Absolutely gorgeous!

This is from the AMT 1962 Impala SS kit.

Thanks for the kind words! Bill is correct. The decals came out well but definitely were tricky. I painted the front suspension, put it in place, glued the body halves, filled and sanded the seam. If I hadn't, I think the decals would have amplified the seam. I am pleased with how it all turned out.

I am really liking that Jordan. I am with you, there were some good looking F1 cars in that era. I have this kit in my stash. I hope I can pull it off as well as you did. It is funny, my first post here was also a Jordan. It was the 197 "Bitten and Hisses". You can search on "Jordan" and find it if you want.

Hi Adam! I'm more interested in your avatar. I worked at a Red Owl in my high school years. This was in a small town in North Dakota. I don't suppose there are too many people on here that have ever heard of Red Owl. Sadly, my home town store is no more.

Another beauty OC. I would never have noticed the stripes. Actually, I still can't see what you fixed....a sure sign of great work.

Always like seeing your builds OC. Thanks for sharing them!

Looks like she just pulled off the track. The background looks interesting too.

Looks good to me Tony!

I think it looks great Ken! That first picture is the money shot.

She is gorgeous! I think Skip summed it up perfectly. Thanks for sharing!

This was the first model my daughter built. It was a vehicle she could relate to. It was something familiar to her. She was quite proud of it. I'm not sure if she even remembers it now but I have it tucked away for her and will give it to her someday.

I've been following this build. It is looking nice Seth!

That is a sweet build Bob! Great color and stance.

Thanks again for the comments guys. I do appreciate them. Glad to see there are some open wheel fans out there .

I like the color choice. The carbon fiber work looks good too!

How cool is that!?! Nice job Norbert.

Thanks for the comments guys! Tom - I have all but one, (I believe). They are not bad kits. I know exactly which Kool car you are talking about. Very "cool"! Harry - They are indeed the kit decals. I went with the rain tires just to have something different.

She is really looking good Tomo!

I won't make a comment on each one, but man you guys are doing some nice work here. I've gotta jump in soon. I'm feeling like a real slacker. Keep the updates coming guys!

I wanted to post this last weekend for the Indy 500 but did not get to. Better late then never, as they say. You don't see many open wheeled cars here so I thought I would share this one. This is an old build, done many years ago. This car was my first, and to date, only car that was airbrushed. Nothing special, built straight out of the box. Sorry for the picture quality.

I double checked to make sure I wasn't reading a new "Real or Model?" posting She looks great Harry.
