Thanks Chris! With such a great design, it's hard to miss... CT

Hi! Three experiments: a Starliner with the Alternomad roof, a MonteCarlo transformed into a contemporary Nomad, and a Foose Caddy with a Monogram's 56 Ford panel roof. So much styrene, so little time! CT

Hi Tim! Thank you. Back when the old MPC contest was a thing... I was still painting models with Humbrol enamel and a dime store brush. So, my techniques may have improved, but to me the challenge is always to try to think a bit "outside the box". It keeps boredom at bay, I guess. LOL. So much styrene, so little time! CT

Hi Billy! Please expand on the idea: is-there a SEMA rule that requires removing the driveshaft before entering the convention center? If so, I did not know that... and I thank you for making me aware of it! CT

Hi Jim! Thanks for the pics, much inspiration here. I'm not in carbon fiber, but I must say that Charger entirely wrapped in carbon fiber decal is a testament to the builder's precision and... patience! CT

Hi Ricky! Thanks for the compliments. At some point, I was overwhelmed with the wiring job... but I persisted, and got it done. I was honored to receive the President's award from ACME the year Atlanta held the annual contest ON LINE because of Covid. Which led to an article and spread in Car Model Builder, a couple of issues before it stopped publication. The car also won a few first place trophies in contests here in Canada. As to the Allison salt car, it is visible on this very forum. I think it is on page three (3) in this same category. The thread title is: SALTZWAGEN. I certainly would like to read your comments about it. I suspect you might like it! LOL. CT

Thank you Emre! I like to vary a bit once in a while LOL. CT

Hi Martin! Spectacular detailing and finish. The pics look like the real 1/1 car. Bravo! If I may: what is this fantastic "nougat" paint? Just curious... CT
