  1. Hi Guys!Iam a 57 year old german that started building models when i was 15 thanks to a couple of american soldiers stationed here in Germany in my homecity that where friends of my parents!i started building everything,but at first i was building mostly tanks in 1/72 scale!around 18 i got the Muscle Car Fever and was building many Amt kits under the MAtchbox label!Then i went to 1/35 scale and did this for a long time.I threw away my old Car and Truck kits (which i could kill myself for today)and gave all my other models to my cousins!Some 15 years ago the Car Kit virus struck me again with the Italerie Caddillac Town Car which i wanted to chop and Hot rod!Since then my Car Kit stash accumulated a whopping close to 400 Kits of all brands in 1/24/25 of mostly American Automobiles!I even could lay my hands on some old and (especially here in Europe)rare Johan,MPC and Monogram Kits!My problem is that i have so many ideas for too many kits that i rarely complete my Kits!I have at least 50 Kits in various states of modification and customization or detailing!My problem is that i am not able to build a Kit OOB!As soon i open the box,or even before i buy a kit my brain starts modifying them!So in these 15 years i was only able to complete 5 kits(shame on me)But there are too many kits out there who want to be modified!So i cant help myself!
