    Thanks for sharing the Cobras. I was not aware that Welly had reissued their 427 SCs in different colors so ordered a white one.

    I was not looking for this 1/24 Danbury Mint Corvette when I found it and was really impressed. I ordered it and am convinced it is one of the best models from Danbury Mint in this scale.

    Attended a model show near Washington DC and got lucky with these 3. L to R An AMT 1964 Corvette convertible built but not bad and will be restored. A Welly Pontiac 1969 Judge. A Franklin Mint 1960 Corvair. My Dad was a Corvair fan so this was special to me.

    I was almost going to ask you Helmut about 2025 releases when I came across this post and links. Thank so much for posting this update.

    All are impressive builds. Thank you for sharing them with us.

    I've been away from the board for several months but recently was able to pick up these. A Buick Riviera by Maisto labeled as 1/26. A 1963 black on black Corvette Sting Ray promo by Revell. A 1967 Corvette Franklin Mint half and half, a holy grail find. A 2005 Corvette promo by unknown maker.

    Yeah, what Trevor said. 🙂

    Great project choice.

    That red really pops and the build is super well done.

    The wooden TR58 actually was finished at one time but over the years the paint cracked and came off in large chunks and I have not gotten it rebuilt. Just found a couple of photos.

    Thank you for the link Matt.

    Good question. The answer is I did not but I did collect the drawings. Scale drawings is an interesting topic and may be worth a separate topic. I wonder if they would have any value to the 3D folks.

    Mark, the wire wheels were based upon the first release of the AMT Cobra kit. They were the only thing available at the time.

    In the mail. LeMans-Porsche-Penske, right up my alley.? 2023 BBurago 1/24 Porsche 993.

    I understood Paul did the casting. Not sure who did the master though.

    A beautiful accomplishment.

    Question.

    Gramps46 replied to Geno's topic in Diecast Corner

    Geno, I needed a wiper and got this from lemansdecals.com. It is available in different scales. It is not an exact match but if you can't find anything else. Gary

    I just received an order I placed about 2 weeks ago. That is about usual.

    Attended the Dunn Loring VA show for the first time in decades. Picked up a beautiful Studebaker, a Plymouth Pickup, a '65 AMT Corvette rebuilder, and 2 resin Corvette Grand Sports.
  24. Gramps46
    A big thank you to all for your comments.
  25. Gramps46
    Very well done indeed Helmut.
