Very nice builds, that '68 Plymouth looks HUGE! Now I want to build Mercedes and Porsches to balance all these. ?

Good job producing so many nice builds. I just started the '29 Model A, can I pick your brain?

Nice job on all of them, but I'm digging the Cadillamino.

Nice production run, the rally car is different for you?

Awesome you could pump out so many nice models! I like the Ferrari, is it the Miami Vice kit?

Condolences, impressed how you carried on. Nice job on those, and I love the setting.

Excellent workmanship all around, and photography. The Nissan, that an early Skyline? I was checking out how you did rubber around the BMF trim. ?

Impressive on all, 956 cigarette is my favorite.

I'm biased for the '72 Chevy stepside, just because I own a '68. You added photo-etch wipers. Good job on all!

I'm impressed how you saved the Ferrari. If you have a WIP explaining the tires, let me know.

Did a fabulous job on all! That Dodge convertible is really sweet.

Fun collection, I see a pattern. ? Really nice job on Duel Peterbilt. I have the 330 P4, someday......

film at 5:00.

Look forward to watching this build! Why do they bother with the cylinder bores, they get covered. Same with the Revell Model A that I started.

Right on! ?

One year later, started it! They decided to do it 2023, so I still have plenty of time, but you know how that goes. Already have questions, so if you have built this kit, feel free to chime in. I have a drawing of the Bungalow, but should contact Russel Stover to see if they have more photos, especially of the back. It would be awesome to know what the inside looked like, but I might just fake it. Marked the parts to use, could probably make another car with the left overs. First issue encountered, one frame cross member can't be correct, the pin does not allow the engine mounts to line up. So I've decided to use the other frame that is intended for the blower version A, can't see a reason why not. Comparing the frames. The front tube cross member adds strength, I should be able to add the bumper back on. What do the fenders look like? Well dang, there is interference of the front cross member and the body part under the radiator. So which kit is wrong? Not many parts could be glued together before painting. Since I picked which frame, this one needed more superglue and baking soda to fill the gaps at the cross member. First paint session. I will have to resist working on the black parts for awhile, since that takes longer to cure than other paint. The Model Master aluminum is almost used up, will miss it but I have other paints that are almost as good. I'm mixing Dullcote with gloss black to do semi-gloss. The instructions are sort of confusing, version A with the blower shows the engine to be orange, and the transmission as aqua. Really? Good thing version B is semi-gloss black, looks much better with chrome. Frame got Tamiya primer, am thinking of painting gloss chocolate brown. I think black wheels are better than red for this car. Another question, does the rear axle really glue to the frame? That would mean no travel at all, like a Hardtail Harley. There are coilover shocks, those are going to be replaced with scratch-built units, and the front will get coilovers.

Some of you are way too ambitious! ? I would be thrilled to get what I admit to, finished. Here is one more, just started yesterday.

Thank you very much! It was fun to throw together. Thank you for doing that. ? Thank you too!

Hope this wasn't posted before.... stolen off of Fakebook, who knows where it was stolen from. AZ Historical plate.

? than that?

"Best way" is subjective, this is what I'm comfortable with. This WIP sat for years in the box, because I was daunted by the multiple colors on the seats. If I recall correctly, there were 7 colors for the interior. I prefer regular masking tape, you can draw with a pencil on it. It cuts easily with a new #11 blade. When I work it down into the crevasse of the cushions, use a toothpick. Sometimes I use Scotch tape, if there are round shapes to go around. I so don't like brush painting! But I have to for touchup.

Do you have the photo on your computer (making a huge assumption you are not using a phone)?

FYI: First image doesn't show up for me. Yea, sign we are getting old, Groundhog Syndrome. ?

I know what you're doing, looking for Bring Out Your Dead candidates. ? I lost momentum last year, was on a roll in the first months, then completely stopped building (but not buying more kits). So I will recycle my 2021 Resolutions image, with updated graphics. I built two that aren't on this list, so things may change, because I have new subjects I want to build.

Most awesome dude! What you lacked in quantity, more than made up with quality, congrats on the trophy. Maybe this year you can change that. ?
