  1. Merci Mario! Now, you are putting pressure on me with the "didn't expect anything less". Misère... CT
  2. Hi Phil! Thanks for the fantastic pics, much inspiration there! I particularly love the Ford Sierra. I had 3 XR4Ti Merkurs and one Skorpio, so... CT
  3. Thank you Billy! The 83/86 Bird is such a great design, it's a good start! CT

  5. Thanks David! It is my favorite TBiird generation, so was fun to design and build! CT
  6. Hi! Full disclosure: I had a 1/1 85 Turbo-Coupe TBird back then , and I loved the car. Nostalgia got me to take a Monogram Iaconnio TBird pro-stock, and adapt it to street duty. I wondered what the SVO division might have done if asked to create a car for the show circuit. So... Monogram's racing bird kit, witn a road-worthy interior and large diameter Maisto rolling stock (narrowed in the front), and the hood and headlight lenses (modified) pirated from the 87 Turbo-coupe. + some parts-bin pieces (seats, roll-bar, etc. Scratchbuilt dash, door panels & console, hood hinges, injection system, etc. . Tamya's titanium silver. Revell's spray chrome on various parts. Hours of fun with styrene! CT
  7. Hi! I agree with Muncie. plus, if the past is any indication, economic downturns usually show that most people cut on big ticket items, but continue to allow themselves "small pleasures". I suspect buyin a kit or two falls into the latter... Good luck and enjoy yourself. CT
  8. Hi! I was blessed with the first place trophy in the custom & rods category at the RAM show last weekend in Drummondville. Thanks to the organizers and to all the participants who took time to vote! CT
