Welcome to the site. Not to far from me, I'm over in plainfield

I lived in Bolingbrook as well. Moved to plainfield about 5 years ago. Right in between Naperville/joliet. Thanks a lot for the links, I'll be sure to check those out! Good to know

Here's a quick pic I got on google. Hope you don't mind me posting this here.

Great movie from my childhood. Will be watching this one. Good luck

Looking real good so far. Just saw this over on f1m as well. I will be following your build. Keep up the great work!

Got these in today.

Can't get enough of this build... It is stunning. Any issues while building? I have to pick this kit up. I've never done 1/12 before tho, I'm sure I will be in over my head haha.

Looks amazing. Wish I could see the interior better. Hard to get pics of that I'm sure. Looks like a lot of nice detail work

Great job! Love the color

Yeah seriously I won't use sal again. They give you a "tracking" number which is great if you want to see where in japan your package was. I ordered from hlj one FedEx and one sal. FedEx came by end of week, sal I've been waiting over a month now. Really sucks not knowing when or if it will ever come. Have another kit I ordered in January from a seller on amazon, based in japan, and that's expected to be here within 3 weeks. Not very quick, 2 1/2 months for delivery is never fun. And then if it doesn't show up you have to deal with that. Basically just spend a few bucks more for tracking lol Not worth the headache

Looks great. I wasn't trying to call you out, just knew it would look that much better if you touched it up real quick

Wow nice stuff landman. I just got these 2 kits in the mail yesterday.

Oops I read the title as panhead lol no Harley's in here. Cool read regardless as I have never heard of a panhard before

That's simply amazing! Is it mostly box stock or was there a ton of detail added? Regardless it looks stunning, great job

Looks great, foil work came out nice. Love these kits. Only thing I would point out is that you painted over the side marker lights in the front fenders...

Got these today. Another lotus 72c, 32 and 36 ford, lotus 7, and big daddy's outlaw

Looks like the rear bumper is missing...

Holy cow and I thought I had too many! Just sold off about 25 of them... Do you have any pics posted on here, would love too see that

Wow nice results. I was looking at that kit not too long ago... Might have to pick one up now. Great job! Love the colors

What kit is that '36? Looks pretty darn amazing! Also love the eliminator, had that kit as a child and I ruined it

Haha no I didn't get the mercedes, I just meant I preordered it along with purchasing some other kits. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I was just letting anyone know, if they haven't ordered from hlj before to opt for tracking service.

Cool thanks for all the info guys. I used to live out by crystal lake years ago. It's a drive, but not to bad. I'll have to look into it. So no good shows/events around here? I've never been to one before, was hoping to change that.

Yep got mine on preorder as well from hlj. Not sure if it's been said but always opt for shipping with tracking. I placed 2 orders on there 2 weeks ago. One with tracking and one without...shipment with tracking arrived in just a few days after I ordered, yet the one without tracking I am still waiting on. They both shipped the same day so not sure what that's about, but I regret not spending the extra $5-10 for tracking now hopefully it shows up soon as I have heard that customer service isn't the greatest

Very interesting to say the least. Thanks for posting. Pretty cool looking concept car. I sure do miss the old days of formula 1. My favorite being the times of Fangio, Jimmy Clark, Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart... All the way up until the 90s with Nigel and Senna. Those cars all had character and personality like the drivers of those days. I wish I was around back then, but luckily we have the Internet and YouTube so I can go back and relive those glory days of formula 1!

Thank you all for the welcome if there's any others from illinois that have any model shop or show info let me know. I'm between Naperville and joliet, about 40mins from Chicago
