Beautiful work on the diorama, very convincing. Nice little roadster also.

Just came across this build and am totally absorbed in it. Really like your concept. I have an idea for a less popular, more anemic car that is along these very lines. I will be watching what you do and will be stealing many of your ideas. Thanks for doing this build.

Those are definitely some beefy looking springs.

Makes me want to go out and buy an airplane ticket. Years back there was a big hoop-de-do about the capabilities (or lack thereof) of some of the ATC's (air-traffic-controllers). While in the USAF I got to know a couple of ATC's and my impression was that I was glad I was not flying the aircraft. This is not to impinge ATC's, it is just to recognize they are humans with the same frailties as the rest of us.

Very convincing indeed, I had to go get my jacket just to look at these pictures. Your presentation of snow and road grime are outstanding, especially in a 1:50 scale model. I do have one question: what do the two human figures over the truck's visor represent?

Beautiful old modified, grew up watching these cars run. Always have had a soft spot for them.

Beautiful Gasser, one of my favorite classes of drag cars. Your scratchbuilt parts are very convincing and add to the overall look of the car. And the front end is not in the nose-bleed area. Very well done.

Going to be an interesting build to watch. The move to 4WD was essential, you have to have the capabilities to go out in the middle of fields to repair farm equipment or to work on pipelines. IMHO if you want dependability stick with the Miller welder; Lincoln is ok, but Miller rules.

With the brick wall background, it has a very realistic look to it. Nicely done build, great attention to detail and I really like the color scheme.

Not sure how many I have in my stash. Sort of afraid to count, but I do know I have more than I will ever build.

Those are two really nice builds. Curtis was a class act. Is that '64 the Craftsman series Ford?

Another amazing build from your bench and your photographic skills bring this model to life. Excellent work.

What he said!

Definitely one fine looking F-100. Beautiful color choice and paint job. Very nice photographic work also.

Back in early November I ordered some items from Hobby Search (located in Japan). I have ordered from them in the past and received my packages within a reasonable time. According to their email to me my package was shipped on 8 November. I was given a tracking number which dead-ends at Kanagawa (Japan?) on 11/10 at 15:43. Now I did use Surface Parcel, even then the cost was pretty steep, any other form of shipment would have almost doubled the cost of my order. I figure the package got stuck in a container and has been almost around the world and is now sitting outside San Diego. Anyone else dealt with Hobby Search lately and having similar issues?

Very nice old rig. Really liked those old fat-fendered Fords and Macks from that era.

The real nightmare is backing that big butt up, it really doesn't swing that badly turning. Looking forward to this build. Will watch this build closely, I have been wanting to build one for some years now, maybe your build will be the motivation I need. I just this past week stopped driving a yellow bus and have relegated my driving to activity runs and sports. I drove in a neighboring county for four years and have driven in my home county for the past 10 1/2 years. Jeff for authenticity you will have to have gum, candy, and crackers crushed into the floor; maybe a spot of vomit since you are building an elementary bus.

Mine came in yesterday's mail. Some really good stuff on haulers. Got to get to the bench and build me one.

Very nice-looking rig and your photographic presentation just makes it look that much better. Beautiful build.

Really like the concept and your build is coming along very well. Keep on building.

Normally outside lighting does work better, but on these two photos the inside one looks best. Very pretty color either way.

Beautiful work on this icon, also agree the color fits it well. Just a suggestion, the overhead lighting you are using is quite strong and washes out the color. Put some sort of filter over the light to slightly diffuse it.

Not familiar with this kit, but just a couple suggestions. You may have to do some minor alterations to the chassis or try tucking the headers in as close to the block as you can for clearance.

Just received my latest order from Texas 3D Customs and again am totally blown away. Got a couple of Econoline seats, couple of Powerglides, and an injected Ford SOHC. IMHO these pieces should be displayed in the Louvre art museum, they are that beautiful. Now I just need to find my workbench, get it cleaned off, and get busy building.
