Cool,yup there you go.TDR has some great pro mod bodies,and other drag racing parts.I’ve purchased a bunch of bodies/roll cages,etc,all from TDR,great stuff.I know that some of the bodies require a ton of prep work,sanding,& sanding for days.🤨That’s the only problem.

I gotta find the “outlaw” hood I have,and a rear wing.Just going to build the nose off the car,sort of a diorama

Trying to locate the rest of this Pro mod Nova body,the doors,trunk,and wing.Its a 3D printed body.I’m not really sure if I have the skill to built it,I’ll have to see.🤞

I don’t know whose car this is.I saw it on line for sale.I forgot,but I think it’s a 53 MG,or an Austin Healey..But either restore it,or put it out of its misery.☹️It is hard to look at.🫣

Welp,we got the first snow of the year here in NY.I was hoping we were going to get away with no snow.Oh well,❄️❄️❄️❄️🤨🤨🤨It snowed just enough to be annoying.

Oops,I forgot the mini F40.I think it’s 1/43rd scale,but i could be wrong.There are no markings on the car.

Ah there ya go,Slap Shot,great movie.Good old tough guy,Paul Newman.

Sorry,I didn’t really read any of the reply’s,but in case no one mentioned it,try Costco,or BJs.Ive bought a bunch of good quality eye wear from Costco,and they’re not expensive.

Ah the barn find F40 has been restored.😉..Along with another F40 I had.Even found a couple of F40 kits,including this huge 1/12 scale kit..However I don’t really see myself building that one anytime soon.

Yea the CVS cars are pretty cool.I have a bunch,mostly exotics.

Let me guess,The Towering Inferno.🤷‍♂️

Everytime you finish a build,you have to watch 100 hours of non stop TMZ,and another 100 hours of Judge Judy.A fate worse than death.😵‍💫😫.Dear lord ☠️🙏

Ah every boys dream ride,a beautiful lipstick red, Lamborghini Countach.And in my IMO,the single best super car ever created,second only to the Ferrari F40.

Building something a little different with that wonderfully detailed,and well designed AMT model we all know as,The Old Pro.😆🙄God how many times have they re-released this kit?🤔The old Old Pro.No,its a pretty cool kit.Probably one of the first kits I ever built as a kid, and I’m in my 50s,.Anyway like i said building this one a little different.Using a diecast Jegs Pro stock chassis,etc.Will see,maybe I can actually finish this one.🤷‍♂️

I have to say that i went back to look at some of the photos you posted.You really did a great job on that small section of any street in the US.The oil stains,and sewer covers just look so realistic ,and the way you took the photo,with the shadow, just adds to the realism of the scene..You know what I mean.🙄Really,great job,thanks for the tips.

Well another great actor passes,and sort of an icon.☹️.Everyone knew him as Apollo Creed..However,I never knew he played in the NFL for one season in 1970 for the Raiders..RIP Carl Weathers..

I was just curious,I wonder how many women out there are model builders.While their better half are not.I have a friend,his main interests has always been sports.Soccer,football,baseball,basketball,etc.While his wife is the “better” model builder in the family.And dam she can build.As a matter a fact that’s how i met her.We met each other at a model car show,started talking,and have been friends ever since.I introduced her to my buddy a few years ago,and they just hit it off.Now,they are married,and both are builders.However,she is still a better builder than both of us.🤷‍♂️

Every time you open a bottle of paint or glue together an assembly, a cat knocks it to the floor. Yes,this happened to me all the time with four cats bouncing around..However it was really my one jet black cat,named Cole,that would not only knocks stuff onto the floor,cause i guess it was in his way.😈But he was also stealing important parts right off my bench.Somehow he knew what was important to me.And leave everything else.They are all gone now.🫡😽Anyway,it was hell on earth.🤣🥃Meow guys.🙏

Sorry Ace,just messing with you sir..

Great start.I have that same kit.I don’t normally build motorcycles,but this kit spoke to me,it reminded me of my own Ninja RR.Yours looks a lot nicer.I laid mine down shortly after i bought it.Hung onto it,until it was basically stripped for its parts by some friends.🤷‍♂️🤬Whatever.But really excellent job choosing that color,and laying those decals on.I was just drawn into Kawasaki bikes,I think for the attraction i have to Lime Green,or (Kawasaki),Ninja green,whatever you wanna call it.🤷‍♂️😁

I call this my Ferrari F40 barn find.Are you kidding me?Picked this gem up at a new vintage toy store.The owner said he bought it from some guy who he assumes never dusted his diecast collection. 🤮And no I didn’t handle it.It will be washed in hot water and cleaned with an air gun,then placed on my shelf with my other 5 F40s.I Love these cars..Has to be my all time favorite Exotic,not just a Ferrari,but exotic.I saw one at a car show once awhile ago.It was a bit tight,being 6’2”.The car had no miles on it.Maybe about 13K.The guy said he did race the car around some track,can’t recall.Anyway,that dust is nasty.

Yea,me too,when I was younger.Well that ain’t bad if he’s inside.I just remember meeting a friend of mine down at his MTA,job in a yard in Brooklyn,if I remember right.He was usually outside most days,no bad weather.Thats when he would work inside.I remember though that there were trains flying by.Well I mean they were a good distant away.And dam they can move..But you gotta just be extra careful I guess.Well it’s kind of like NYC construction jobs.🥃

Omg,thats funny.That actually happened to me just the other day.🤤

Yea see there ya go.Did anyone else suggest trying very hard to sharing our hobby with our wives?Thats what its all about.And hey,there’s hobbies i have that she’s never shared with me.And she has hobbies that I do not share with her.I mean I like cars,& fishing🎣,& she likes clothes shopping.So there you go.🤣Hey hang onto that gal sir.I think most of us know how difficult it is to find a gal like that.🤦‍♂️🥃.Isn't there a few woman on this site?If so,i wonder how they feel about things.🤔

Wow,i seriously hope your son makes a really good living for himself and his family.Cause that has got to be one of the “toughest” jobs i can think of.Outside,freezing in the winter,boiling in the summer.Trains flying by,praying there not on the wrong line.I’ve been at that yard,it’s a pretty chaotic rough place to have to work in.Your kid deserves a medal,or a month off with pay.😄I mean almost every part of a train is heavy duty.
