Danno

Both!

Exquisite! My favorite Ferrari of all time and this model demonstrates why!

There you go!

That's cool, Tom! I've always thought it would be fun to put together a series like that. Uh. Now, better get to work on three Galaxy kits ... '46, '47, and '48 Chevys! {You just thought you were done!}

Excellent! Both.

Good job.

Boy howdy, that's a nasty, gnarly goody!

Thank you, Bob.

NEWSFLASH!!! Updated weather forecasts now list "possibility" of the R-word for our upcoming weekend. Maybe. Wow. Let the ark-building commence.

You know, Dan, you have a good point there. I'd forgotten about the Visi-Bar in the old JoHan kit. The NYPD style equipment is so completely identified with that iconic kit, that the Visi-Bar and beacons have kind of slipped out of mainstream knowledge. I've got to check into another of those kits again!

Amen, Gabe!

Thanks, Dave. I hope it stands up to further scrutiny! Thanks, Rob. I still have a few of these and haven't figured out what to do with them all. One interesting tidbit . . . the Galaxie has the same wheelbase as the '70 Mercury Montereys that CHP used, and most of the dimensions are within an inch or so between the two cars, other than overhang. Roofline is the same and general body shape is very close . . . hmmmmmmmm ........

Thank you. Thanks, John! Okay. See you at DSC, my friend. I know you'll have some excitement on the table. I'll try to have some surprises on the club table! *Of course, anything finished would be a surprise from me, huh?

Thanks, Harry. That's quite a compliment coming from an exquisite builder such as yourself! Yeah, we do things differently out here . . . we have to! Constantly dodging Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner and all their shenanigans! And, then there's those pesky haboobies! PS: We can have white cars, too! We don't have to worry about losing them in snowstorms!!

Thank you, Chris.

Thanks, Lee. *It's not like I've never heard that one before! In fact, that's how the nickname attached itself to me. I more felony arrests than my peers and the jailers started calling me 'Book 'em, Danno.'

That's neat!

Beautiful!!

Nice!

That's so cool it's icy!

Thanks, Dave! Hey, Bill, Thank you, too! Whereabouts in the Valley do you hang?

Superb!! A real work of art, G.

Well, you are always welcome at Desert Scale Classic on April12, 2014 in Phoenix, where the weather will be balmy.

Thanks, Jay! You're right, policecarmodels.com is a great resource. However, they don't offer accurate 1/25 Federal 14 beacons and Federal 100 sirens, either. In fact, there is no source for the correct beacons other than the hard-to-find Yodel kits, and there's only two decent siren speakers in scale for that era, the Yodel kits again, and the speaker in the "Cop Out" funny car kit. Because I wanted to stick to IPMS Out of Box rules, I couldn't use the better equipment on this one. Glad you liked it, in spite of its shortcomings.

Very much so, Aaron! LOL. Thanks for the tip of the hat.
