.........mad genius comes to mind for some reason, lol..............., looking good man!

Way back in the day I played Need For Speed Porches Unleashed, had a force feedback wheel/pedals, played that a ton! Game was a lot of fun, and you could buy cars and upgrade them as you won ‘money’ from the races. It also had a factory driver section that was very tough to advance thru.

Congratulations! That’s a great looking car. Only downside I see, is the model budget is going to go towards speeding tickets?

I find the best prices are at swap meets/ shows. most of the latest round 2 kits I've bought have been from meets, $39 retail kits for $18 at the swap meet/show. so, if the revell prices get jacked up on the retail side, hit the shows for bargains.

I’m thinking it’s going to be a narrow market as time goes on, kits are getting pretty expensive for the casual model builder, and all us ‘old guys’ seem to have large stashes of kits. I’m sure the art of building will survive for a couple of decades to come, but new builders, and new products may not flourish like they used to.

So, where are the pictures of the model? ....amazing build....

Another beauty! You’ve hit another home run with this one!

So, what have we found out? Did the sky fall today or what? ?

I’m not a nascar fan by any stretch of the imagination, but I gotta tell ya, I think I’d watch if it were like the ‘old days’, slap a factory rwd V8 powered car I can buy at the dealer on the track , and have at it ( obviously with the proper safety equipment installed on said race car) . You know, the kinda stuff that you can identify even if it has no badges on it, not a bunch of cookie cutter cars with the same roofline etc to make it a level field.....

Haha, try wheeling around a crew cab truck with an 8 foot bed, it’s just slightly shorter than a full sized school bus........

I’ll be driving this to work today, I’ve had several of my ‘dream cars’ over the years, but so far, this one has been the most fun ?

Great looking pair, I too like the red/white one?

Yup, it is, stay tuned for second color.....

First color is on

They were only 20% off, with tax, it came to $40 even for the both of them. They are totally cool though?

Great looking build, bought one yesterday, I think I’ll be stuffing a big block in it though, kit engine just looks so out of place.

Nice to see this one done, it came out beautifully!

The start of the project...

Hit toys r us yesterday, thought these would look cool behind a pick up or wagon

That’s a fine looking rig!

Oh yeah...., that’s looking real good!

That looks fantastic!

Great looking pick up! Love the colors!

Thanks guys last few years I’ve just brought cars to NNL East, usually 4 or 5 of us guys ride down together, so space in the vehicle is at a premium, lol. I did get the 59 caddy prostreet photographed by the ‘other’ mag though

That looks great! Nice to see this one getting finished up.
