  1. Hi Bruce! What tipped me on the scale was the hinge on the side-panel... It looked too "perfect" to be 1/24 or 1/25 LOL! I'm completing 5 models at once: a lakester, a pro-mod, a Chevy-van, a custom 1926 "Ranchero", and a 65 Impala pro-touring. Hours of fun with styrene! The best to you! CT CT
  2. Hi Bruce! Great finish, I can see the California sky, goes to show... I was reading old issues of SAE lately, and I saw a spread on a spectacular Toyota 2000 GT that you completed. That was masterfull! CT
  3. Thank you Larry. The compact aspect of it made it more complicated to build that I expected, but fun nonetheless. CT
  4. Hi! I won an AMT Lola Indy car as a door prize at a show last year, and since I'm not into Indy cars, I wondered what to do with it. So... Took the floorpan and IFS, scratchbuilt a grille, and used the hood/cowl from an old Monogram Sprint car, all modified. The mags/tires are from the Lola. Scratchbuilt: interior, seat, dash, handlebars, windshield, swingarm, belt and pulley, brakes, cyclop stop, rear bulkhead, etc. . The exhaust pipes are from Testor's Smoothster. Side wings from a Revell plane, truncated. The Spyders are already very popular, might be the time for a racing program... Hours of fun with styrene! CT
