Thank you Jeff! Actually, the hardest part was proper finishing of the F100 roof where it meets the top of the rear deck, for the last 3 scale feet at the rear. The "joint" is in a cavity created by the fold on the top of the quarter panel. Not easy to sand polyester putty properly in that notch... CT

69 1/2 (?) Camaro concept - Pro-Touring experiment

Thank you Jeremy, quite a compliment! And to say that SEMA 2020 has been canceled because of Covid... CT -
Hi Bill! I too enjoy seeing very detailed models on this very forum. And luckily for us, they come aplenty, don't they? To me, I don't know how to express it better than "being good for the soul." Whenever I get a chance to look at photo reports of events such as, say, the Heartland National, I get that warm feeling. Can't explain it, but it sure feels that way to me! CT

Hi! Chip Foose is a tremendously gifted designer. Let's assume that "you can't out-Foose Mr. Foose". Therefore, let's go in a totally different direction... Curbside, built with the Eldorod, with roof from Monogram's F100 panel truck grafted, lowered and fitted with shorter rear doors. Lowered stance. Cargo floor and casket scratchbuilt. Rolling stock from Revell of Germany Jag XK-120. Tamya's Linoleum brown + spray net + custom mixed tan hue, distressed & satin cleared. Home made decal. BMF where needed. Hours of fun with styrene! CT
