Thank you Skrapper! CT

Store-bought stuff certainly took the place of hand-made goods, alas...

Stands of fresh veggies are always my favorites at open-air markets.

Thank you Dennis! CT

Hi Janos! Great build of a challenging kit. I have one in my stash, and every time I look at it, I end up postponing the build. Well, now you are pushing me... CT

Salut Mario! You made good with a complicated kit, bravo! The paint is very nice. The 1/1 Cads of the era were hardly as shiny... CT

Interesting crime, but I dout AG Garland decides to prosecute. I hear he has "bigger fishes" to fry. Oh well... Speaking of old decals... I found at the bottom of my "vintage" decal box the very "hip" side panel decals that AMT included in the 68 Corvette kit, back when it came out. It looks like houndstooth pattern. The support paper is yellow, mind you, but I could not resist testing one decal from the sheet, in lukewarm water. Wow, no tear, and it laid out perfectly. So, I may try to put them on a 68 "Vette this fall. I wonder how many greay beard modelers like me (us?) will remember this feature of the kit? CT

Distusting ideas have no place in the public discourse.

Appropriation? Who cares, when the flavor explodes in your mouth?

Hungry for the excellent Mexican cuisine of the Cafe Noche in Conway village, NH... but it will be closed during my visit thi weekend... bummer!

Thank you Rob! Lowering the truck was the fun part... CT

Thank you so much, Larry! CT

Hi Oliver! What a great project, and your top chop technique is interesting. Keep on. Oddly, I'm starting a 66 Riv "modern custom" at my end too. Some styling differences, however. Keep at it, inspiring! CT

Hi! Great stance! Just curious: is-this a static axle in the back, or a very unobstrusive third member? This thing is loooooooow! CT

Chastised I should stand, then!

Days seem to pass too fast, and I lost count of the pages. Should-I self immolate trough fire?

Composed of parts that seemingly would not fit together, a good mash-up never fails to impress!

Buggles were off by a mile... Radio is still thriving, and radio stars were, indeed, made bigger by being featured on the tube... CT

"Moonlight feels right" was a very popular song, by a act called Starbuck, when I started in radio... CT

Thank you Rusty! I agree, this Diamond Dust lacquer relly pops! CT

Blood relatives of mine can't get around to understand my passion for styrene... Go figure!

Kid thrilled by styrene becomes and old grey beard with the same affliction... CT

Thank you Mathias! CT

Hi Carl! Wow, the Mako Shark and the Cougar are rare animals! The 69 Cougar is all over the place, but the 70? Soooo rare in my neck of the woods. Bravo! CT

Person who should feel challenged, me? Not a chance! CT
