Thanks for sharing, looks like he has fun with his Dart! I have heard he is a true car guy, from wrenching on them to being super knowledgeable about options and what was factory or dealer bolt on to being a model builder too! Now that Speed is no more, I wonder what will happen to the BJ auctions ?

1974 Econoline
mikemodeler replied to Repstock's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Another incredible piece of work Tom, very impressive scratchbuilding! Interested to see this one done and possibly for sale! -
Thanks for sharing, I had planned on going but had to find a car for my son this weekend. Hope to make the Morganton show at the end of September.

Models at Wal-Mart
mikemodeler replied to Evilbenny's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
The wife and I had some time to kill the other night and decided to walk through the Wal Mart in Concord NC, near the speedway, and saw these same kits on the shelf. She was nice enough to ask if there was anything I might need or want and I laughed and said "No!" -
NOS Barn Finds - Sale Is Next Month
mikemodeler replied to Lunajammer's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I would be willing to bet that we see a few of these show up at Barrett Jackson in the coming months. Some jackwagon will try to buy low and sell high. I would rather have a running "original" than some no mileage car that has been sitting for 40+ years. -
How often do you visit Hobby Lobby?
mikemodeler replied to dantewallace's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I hit them whenever I am near one. Used to get mad at myself for not printing the coupon out ahead of time until I realized I could look it up on my smartphone and save the paper! Amazing how many people you see in line with smartphones getting their coupon code ready! -
Kenny, Do you have a list of vendors that will be there? I have a busy weekend planned (wedding anniversary) but could sneak out to visit!

I stopped in the HL in Kannapolis NC today and they had 2 cans each of the gray and white primers. $10.99 before my coupon. They also had a bunch of models marked down 40% on clearance, so I picked up another Ford Van and was tempted to get a couple of others before the voices in my head said NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just speculating here John but if someone doesn't submit pictures and information on the show, they can't run em! That said, you going to the next CKM show on August 24th?

1964 Chevy Suburban from 2011
mikemodeler replied to TFchronos's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Nice story and great scratchbuild! If you hadn't said so, I would have sworn that was either a resin kit or styrene conversion. Not sure if you are aware of it but there is a model show coming up next month near you, Foothills Plastic Pros I believe. -

Still waiting on the D series and the Travelall Dave...... -
I think I saw it last night while I was watching Cars!

Paystar 1983 4X4 with snow plow Frink
mikemodeler replied to mackd's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
The scratchbuilding and weathering on this model is incredible! The amount of realism is unbelievable and if I didn't know better, I would swear that was a real 1:1 truck! -

What about the Nissan Juke? Or Puke as some of my friends like to call it!
