Hi Joe! Thanks for the report, very interesting! CT

Hi! Sold my company in 87, had a contract that requested I stay there for 5 years, which I did. Then retired. But my phone kept ringing, and I ended up back in the media biz: radio, TV networks, and even running a daily newspaper. So, lotsa stimulating enperiences, but at 49, in 2004, I left the daily grind. Still work as consultant, once in a while. Build 1/1 hot rods and pro-touring for customers (was my hobby, became a pro endeavour). All males in my family died of heart attacks before they were 50, so I figured I would not do any better. I'm now 69, good health so far, and enjoying building about 12 detailed models per year. Do I miss the daily grind? Nope. I try to spend as much time as possible with my kids and grand-daughters (X3 of each). Priceless. For the rest, I have credit cards if needed LOL. A friend once told me: if you knocked on the gates of Heaven, and God allowed you to return to your life for 24 hours... Would you go to the office to care for unfinished biz? Your answer will tell you all you need to know! CT

Thanks for the video, Al! CT

Hi Pat! Very nice, it looks OEM! The half-lowered rear window adds to the realism. Bravo! CT

Thank you Andy! I've always liked manufacturers' concept cars, and I think trying to emulate them is a challenge for me. Beats building box stock in my book... CT

Hi! I agree, things could have gone downhill much faster, and the landscape would be filled only by play stations consoles. Lucky for our hobby, it survived! CT

this will hurt

Thank you Jeff! CT

Hi David! Some spectator at my last model show tought it was a 4 door Mustang. I guess the door cut lines are too subtle... CT

Thanks Bob! I assume the insurance bill would be a burden, but we'll never know LOL! CT

Thanks Brian! Well, that's a lot of praise, but let's just say that I try my best! CT
