  1. Your work is very nice, one can tell you have a connection with your subjects. It should be beautiful when done. Lots of effort in the build.
  2. Your craftsmanship is outstanding, it will be an outstanding model.
  3. As everyone has said, it's a beautiful model.
  4. I really like your flying car, lots of imagination ! Great use of parts.
  5. This is an older build. It's a Jimmy Flintstone car I purchased at an NNL East show when Jimmy sold them with some white metal wheels, front end and exhaust. I attempted to portray a weathered salt flats car. My first attempt at weathering. It has no engine, I made an interior but it is pretty hidden by the chopped top.
  6. Looks very nice. Ed's products are well thought out and add a lot to a model. I have always been pleased with what I have purchased.

    34 Ford Coupe

    Very nice build
  8. Your jr. fueler is coming out very nicely, all your hand made parts make it unique and realistic. The jr. fueler class is overlooked in the modeling world. Your car is an inspiration, looking forward to seeing it move forward.

  10. Nice build, especially like the wheels, if they aren't right it can spoil the whole look. You nailed it.
  11. The service from Speed City is prompt. His resin is top notch and subject matter is great for '50 - '60 era drag subjects. I only have good things to say about my dealings with Scott at Speed City Resin
  12. All I can do is repeat what has been said, it's a beautiful model, nice to see something different with the '30 Ford. I have always thought the Vicky was an attractive car. Great job on the conversion !
  13. I have always liked Gas Ronda's cars, Your model is nicely done.
  14. Excellent workmanship. It came out very nice !
  15. I like everything about your build, the paint is beautiful, nice job all the way around. A nice period piece.
  16. A lot of effort ,time and creativity are evident in the finished model. A really nicely done car. Great job.
  17. Nice model, a lot of nice features you added, really liked the weathered chassis.
  18. I looked through a friends copy and this is a wonderful book, very well researched, chock full of information. Tim did an impressive body of work on it. I will be purchasing my own copy in the near future. It is a must have.
  19. I can only agree about the outstanding quality of the parts. Service is very good too !
  20. Really a beautiful build, your Fords are really exceptional. It was nice that Lindberg included an up top , all convertible model kits should include one.
  21. The H.A.M.B. site. Building kits that I wish were out when I was a kid in the middle of the last century. Members of the model car club I belong to., it's interesting to see everyone's version of the same idea for a build. The problem is finishing.
  22. There are so many more bad box art examples than the one that started this discussion. Most experienced modelers will look past the box and see what their vision of the kit can be made out of it, however to a new modeler I would think the people running the model companies would make an attempt to entice them with attractive box art. That said a creative artists rendering costs more than an afterthought, which much box art seems to represent. Generally Round 2 retro box art and Moebius generally seems to have attractive box art.
  23. A very nice build, a lot of thought and good building skills went into your build
  24. I just wanted to compliment Scott at Speed City Resin for outstanding service, I placed an order on June 19 and was astounded when the mailman delivered my complete order on June 23, yes in the same year. We all have had horror stories of poor service or of being ripped off so I thought it only right to let everyone know about good service when it is received. I have ordered from Speed City in the past and have always had good service, not to mention that his products are unique and well cast. A treasure trove for the vintage drag race modeler. Ed
  25. I was saddened to hear of his passing, I only knew him through photos of his work in the magazines which was impressive.
