There really isn't anything to see downtown anyway, except office buildings. Used to be MANY hobby shops, almost all are gone now. Pegasus is world class, it's a little ways past Pomona, it takes a while to get there. Burbank House of Hobbies isn't huge, but Glen is a GREAT GUY, they will order anything for you. Check it out in advance. Been going there for 30 some years, since they were on Olive Street! Some OK restaurants in the Burbank Mall ( ten minutes away too! https://houseofhobbies.com/ https://www.burbanktowncenter.com/ Not car related, but Redondo Beach is great fun. Lots of inexpensive parking, variety of food too. Usually some cool cars at Ruby's on Sundays. http://www.redondopier.com/

The Nethercutt Museum is just AMAZING, dozens of restored classics, just packed with stuff. I strongly suggest you go, BUT, check it out. Part of the collection is by tour only, look i advance! https://www.nethercuttcollection.org/ The NHRA Museum is in Pomona at the Fairplex, if you like drag cars it's a must. The Peterson is always fun, certainly wort seeing. For local happening, you can check here for a thorough listing of events. You have to look in October though. http://www.socalcarculture.com/events.html HAVE FUN! I Love Los Angeles!

You really did it right! I've been going to the drags sine 1964! Yep! I'm old! You nailed it, it looks exactly right, I mean exactly!

WOW! Very nice!

NICE!!! Has the look! Great job, but I'd put floorboards in it. Really period correct!

That chain looks pretty good, .THANKS ALL!

I'd like to do a chain blower drive but I can't find anything remotely convincing to use for the chain(s). Any ideas appreciated !

What a great idea! If I had room for it, i'd make one! VERY ingenious! I LIKE!

Nice work. Had the pleasure of standing 3 feet from this car at BAKO, at night, burning nitro.Looks good!

ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT WORK! VERY, VERY NICE!

NOTHIN"????

Do you put headliners in your models or just paint? What about those runners in older AMT kits? If you do what materials do you use? What would you use for simulating mohair? THANKS!

Cool!!!

NICE BUILD! I like this, cool subject matter.good work man.

Looks good! fiddly kits. The gold wheels look really good, what did you use?

Looks good to me! I have plans to build a gas class car outta this kit myself. It would be more like B/Gas though, with a 427. NOT trying to nitpick! I like it1

VERY NICE WORK! LOOKS GREAT!

Looks great. Don't sweat the trim I usually don't like primer, but this looks cool.

Looks good to me! NICE WORK!

Title says it. Love to see your builds as described! I'm using the very nice Southern Motorsports Cuda "racing interior" and the Hemi Under Glass kit. I have an annual 66 body and a MCW 65 resin body too, have several HUG kits. Want to see a drag altered version of the 34, jnot street rod! THANKS!!!!!!!!

Try Burbank House of Hobbies as others have said. you won't find a nicer or more honest guy than Glen on the planet! Always willing to help. Give 'em a try!

Cool stuff and nice work. Dioramas are a lot of fun!

Interesting space stuff, but what about car models. I am not interested in Daniels stuff at all. What else did they get?

Really, Auto World was the ONLY source for many things. It's true AMT annuals and Revell, MPC kits were sold in many outlets. But JoHan kits were rarely on the shelves. Many AMY kits were never available. Lot's of drag kits were only at the local hobby shop Milwaukie (Oregon ) Hobby Shop R.I.P.! It was mostly airplanes and AC stuff though, ships railroads etc. Cars were a minority. Since I was years too young to drive, the trip to Vic's Hobby Shop in Portland was rare! They had exotic stuff like.....brass tubing, acetate. Even sheet plastic was only available through AW! A Newberry's store across town was one of the few that had Pactra sprays, most stores just had the Testors Ed Roth display. Auto World was the most exotic thing there was!
