We are very proud that Randy has signed on to be at DESERT SCALE CLASSIC in Phoenix on April 8! I'm not going to say it will be the debut of the Model Builder's Warehouse, because he hasn't indicated that, but we're very happy to have him join us in the earliest stages of his new venture!! Randy/Model Builder's Warehouse will be joining Laski's Scale Specialties, M & S Hobbies, Bob Zetterman (Modelhaus distributor), Tru Color Paint, Tom Neu (Slixx Decals distributor), Bernie's Bargain Barn, Mark's Model Mart, and several other individual kit and supplies sellers! <And, we still have plenty of room for any other vendors!> Please check our website daily as new information is being added constantly. URL is below, in my signature box.

LOL!

Niiiiiiiice! Who are those three guys in the background? For some reason, I'm craving pizza.

Nice, Dave!!!

Wow! Wayne! Welcome aboard the board, my friend. Enjoy yourself, there's a good group of people here. See you tomorrow at the club.

Nice, Charlie. Nice!

If anyone can pull it off, it's the Kurtman! Sounds like a neat idea.

Yo! Kurt! Good to see you join up the old MCM Amusement Park! Another great build, Kurt. Hope to see it on the tables at DSC next month . . . oh, and you, too!

Stunning!!

Specktackular!!!

Incredible!!

That's just electrifying, Chris! It's just Magnificent! To think this is not full-scale! It's shocking!!

Why try to convert a show rod to stock when there are already three available versions of stock Mack trucks? Monogram released flat bed, dump, and tanker trucks. They are still fairly easy to find on the internet, and it would be hugely easier than trying to modify the beer wagon.

Google Images does.

UNbereavabull! That's far more awesome than the English language allows for!

Brilliant! Very illuminating! Way to go, John.

This is the thread: Unfortunately, Brad has rearranged his photo-hosting and none of the pix showed up when I checked the thread a few minutes ago. I don't know if it is temporary or permanent. It also appeared in the Model Cars Magazine 2016 Contest Issue. Brad's model is exquisite!

Sweet!

You're close. Connecticut. It's a '46 - purchased new by Cheshire, CT Volunteer Fire Dept. They ran it until around 1977, then donated it to the Hall of Flame Museum of Firefighting. Yes, it's a long way from home! Actually, we have a lot of 'Back East' apparatus Charlie. We just got a new rig ~ and the newest in our collection. FDNY Rescue 4. A 1996 Saulsbury, it has been fully restored from damages sustained on its last alarm - it was a first-in at the World Trade Center on 9-11-2001. We had a dedication and unveiling ceremony yesterday to introduce it. BTW - A mutual friend of ours, Tim Bongard, and I had a great time at the reception . . . and exploring both the public galleries and the closed-to-the-public storage warehouse where we keep apparatus during restoration and restored rigs taking a break from public display. As Tim said, 'So many rigs, so many projects!'

Charlie ~ I have a "before" pic . . . Actually, this is truly a 1:1, not another Charlie Rowley scale creation. I had forgotten we have this one stashed in our storage building at the National Hall of Flame Museum. You can see how well the Maxim people predicted the beauty of Charlie's model, some 63 years before he built it!

I call your five stars and raise them: Greg's a 6-star caster in my book! I have many examples of Greg's resin artistry. Everything he has done is top-notch! Of course, my favorite is the Cosma Ray. I have accumulated several of those and have plans to replicate each iteration of the 'Ray . . . except that horrid George Barris abomination.

That's just ONE reason Consumer Reports is on my 'magazines to avoid' list!

Mine said I was expired. I didn't know. [Rimshot.] Issue #203 was great!!! Good job, Gregg and Darryl!

Nice!
