I've never seen an Edsel look so good.

That Box Art does invoke a certain "Buy it NOW!" response in some modelers. (Me included)

Nice to learn something new. Even better to see that the Manufacturer is ahead of the 'lunatic fringe' on accuracy. Great Work, Dave M.

Nice Paint. That colour works for that car.

Neat Build! Has a nice 'nostalgia' vibe to it. Looks like something you'd see at the track at the March Meets.

Heck, I'd buy a Rattler if they released one.

I think it is a bit soon for a re-issue. I suspect that the secondary market still has plenty on offer. But, I could be entirely mistaken. Revell has been releasing old T.D. kits at a rate of 2/3 a year, so the R.R. might be up on the list sooner rather than later. Either way, I'm not too sure how much pent up demand there may be (or not be) for this kit.

Enjoy.

I've never seen that old Monogram Model A look so good! Your attention to detail, and rewired wheels, just add to an outstanding build.

Full Flares, Big Spoiler, 5-spoke Mags, Bright Two-Tone Paint, Lame 1980's engine. The "All Flash, No Dash" look that was about all you could get in the '80's. That is when I graduated,(1981) so that is what I want to capture.

My Grandma had one of those, but she lives in West Covina. Is that close enough? Great Build! I really like the colour.

Beautiful build. I'll just never get used to those huge rollers under 1960's Iron, though.

This is just great. I'm a big fan of Tubs, too, and this one is just a homerun. I can't wait to see it complete.

I'm going a completely different direction with my Volare, but seeing your;'s is an inspiration. Keep it up.

Ah, Thanks. I read that and then forgot it. No Fun getting older. (sigh)

Wow! Great Save.

If you watch old 1950's movies or TV, you'll note that the majority of the cars seen on the streets and freeways look like this one. The less expensive 'Plain Jane' cars always outsold their flashy brothers. Your build is a superb rendition of what the average American bought, when he bought a new car back then. This is an Outstanding Build! P.S. Bring Back the Dio. The plain background works well for this particular build, but not most of them.

RickRoller, as you probably already know, Revell is bringing back the RX-7 as a 2'n'1 kit. I'm on board for at least two of them.

Thanks for sharing that pic, Casey. I had not really realized that the Soap Box Derby car was only six pieces. I wonder if Ronud2 found the original tool, or started fresh?

As everyone else has said, Outstanding work. That colour works well on that kit.

Good to have you join us, Daryl. I'm glad you are here.

This car has to be seen in person to really appreciate the workmanship. I was awe struck when Daryl brought it over. It is really a superb build.

Great Work, Daryl.

Now, that's just Cool! I like the Red,White & Blue.

those are Goodyear Suburbanites. best kit to find them is in the Hogan's Hero's jeep kit. It has 4 of them.
