Guess I had one more in me for the year! Built out of box only thing I did was strip most of the chrome parts as they were heavily flashed and overly thick.

After Hobby Lobby came here Michaels cut way back on a lot of their crafting items as well as their model selection which is now almost non existent.

MERRY TURKEYMAS MODEL BUILDERS EVERYWHERE!!! Leave the world and all it's troubles behind and enjoy a wonderful day with family and friends!

Looks great to me!

Sweet looking GP! There was a time when I almost believed they only came in two colors! Metallic green and metallic brown! Seemed like that was the only color I would see them in!LOL

I think I might have pulled that one a couple times hauling produce!LOL Great job!!!

The old White Freightliner I had to drive for Simplot Soilbuilders in Colorado didn't even have stirrups!! Day cab dual drive. Had to use the hub and top of the tire when you climbed aboard! That one was powered by a Detroit! 2100, 2100, 2100 LOL Loved the sound of the 2 stroke Detroit!

When I saw this I had to wonder, "did the designer have the idea of making this vehicle invisible to radar like some of the military aircraft???LOL

Illinois is talking about doing away with the front plate.

Had one in the neighborhood about that color when I was a kid! Great looking old wagon! Really takes me back!

Probably the last build I'll complete this year. Kind of a weekend warrior car ready to battle.

Wish we had a hobby shop like that here! Great to see a youngster that is interested in our hobby! Pretty rare thing these days!

About 6:30 this morning opened the blinds in the model room and saw a strange looking leaf in the street which is about 4 ft away. Then thought can't be a leaf it is too square. Told the wife that I thought it was money in the road and she said well go out and look! Put my shoes on and went around to the street to where it was and it was a 20 dollar bill folded in half laying there! Hobby Lobby here I come tomorrow!LOL

Roast beef with potatoes, carrots and onions with gravy and pineapple upside down cake for dessert!

This is true! LOL

Just got my end of a trade from Sam I Am! Great guy to deal with (but then everyone already knows that!) got it right out to me! Guys like him are what makes this a great place to be!

I won't even go see movies that are using cgi anymore. I have the original movie and that is good enough for me.

Cute little house and an awesome garage!!!LOL My kind of place!!! (if I could afford it now) That is what we did for years, buy an old house that needed work and rehab it while we were living there. Then I would find another and we would sell and move to it and do it all over again! Worked great until I busted my back had back surgery and couldn't work any more. We lost everything.

I'm irked at the below normal temps and the fact that one of the few days forecast to be in the 50's and I have to go up on the carport roof and do some tarring on has now turned windy as heck!

Probably one of those guys that think leaving everybody in a huge black cloud when they leave a stop is cool to do.

Not really a trade but Snake came though for me on some decals I needed! Thanks Snake!!!

I stopped paying attention to drag racing long ago. Top Fuel when they went rear engine and the rest when they started no longer resembling anything I ever have seen on the street. About the only thing I will cross a street for now is nostalgia racing!

A 1979 Transtat II was the last truck I drove. So glad that I will have another chance to build it. The last one I had I sold to pay doctor bills along with so many other irreplacible kits.

I have the Buick in my stash. I will spring for the 2 Modified Stocker kits to replace some of the ones I sold!

Sweet GTO Steve! How did you get the top mounted so good??? Well at least I have a better idea of the actual color! Thanks to all that posted!
