Picked these up today. I was pretty excited to find the river rat kit still sealed. I built that one as a kid. Too bad the box is rough.

I never have created a back story for any of my builds. But I do enjoy reading it when others do make one up. I'm a sucker for a good story teller.

Waring interest wound you say?

Originals do tend to be better for many things.

I built the factory stock version years ago. Good kit.?

Tricky Dick was “not a crook”.

Common areas in school were great places to meet chicks.

My basement was really getting out of hand, so we got some shelving. This is phase one of two I think. After tax time, I order another set of four. About half of them are reserved for my stash, which is currently in boxes. I plan to set it all up like many others have done, so I can actually see what I’ve got. Really looking forward to having my own private hobby shop!?

With that said, I’ll pass this on to the next poster.

Sorta kinda does I think.?

That’s absolutely beautiful. Excellent craftsmanship. Is this based on a kit? Or all scratch built?

Those are both beautiful. Never heard of these kits before.

Nowadays it’s all about the inter-webs.

Right turn, Clyde.

Silly rabbit, tricks are for kid's.

That’s gorgeous. I was just thinking yesterday that I should build a ‘40 for my dad. It’s one of his favorite cars. I think you just pushed me over the edge. Time to get busy!?

There goes the neighborhood…

Sea, I told you so!

Excellent! That looks great.?

Avoided conflict rarely comes to resolution.

Rush was a phenomenal Canadian prog rock band.

Along the way, let’s stop by the hobby shop.

Oh my... where's my chainsaw? Is there photo etch available for this kit? Seriously, there's a part of me that would be tempted. @CabDriver - great idea for a thread. I'm really enjoying seeing everyone's suggestions. Some are really taking me back to the beginnings of my model building days.

You have a real knack for rhyming.

No offense taken at all. Your comment just provides an example of what I mean about the Monogram kit. It’s one of those models that you either love or hate.? It’s all nostalgia for me. I built a few as a kid and plan to do another over the next 1-2 years for comparison. And maybe relive a little of my youth.?
