BIGTRUCK

There was at least 300 or more cars being shown, the nice weather brought out the cars and crowds. .

When Im home not doing much I leave it on, since I drive local now and wait at stops to load and unload I check the forum on my phone.

It was just an awesome day for a car show, $5 to park and free to get in. Almost every picture is another modeling idea. the rest is here http://public.fotki.com/bigtruck199/car_shows_11/cantigny-2015/

1 more light primer and ready for paint, even interior is almost ready

I looked at my photos and the last one for me in Toledo was #30 and the next one is #35 so its been awhile, like Bill stated ''It will be great getting there again''

For your small parts I would test it first before tossing them all in , just a thought, I dont trust the stuff that much

Ive used it twice, in both cases the vent window frame fell off [ not a big deal ] and on 1 body the convertible frame cracked. I may have let it sit too long in the solution. It removed the paint but I think its to harsh on kit plastic,Plus the stuffs a little pricey.

Hope to meet a few of the modelers from this forum snap some pictures , post them on my Fotki to share with all those that could not attend.

"Also, look at some of Revell's more challenging kits of the early 1960s...Mickey Thompson's Challenger One for example. No way were these intricate and difficult models aimed primarily at a market lacking the skills to build them well...though many of us as youngsters, including me, made horrible bodged messes of the best of them." The55,56 57 Chevy, the Swindler Willys, the 57 Nomad and showrods all had doors, hoods, trunks or bubble tops that opened. Tiny hinges on the 29 pick up all things that steered me away from Revell as a young modeler. Metal axles and easy install clear parts was my route back then.

Ive sold many myself , problem is for every 5 I sell I replace them with 3. Im really only looking for a few hard to get kits [ that Ive been searching for forever and will probably never get] meet a few fellow builders and enjoy the day

Whaaaat, how can you buy 1 kit, thats like eating 1 chip

Ive been to the Sylvania center a few times and all was under 1 roof same building..Do they still have flashlight sale in the parking lot?

They do a great job all the years Ive been there.Plenty of vendors and all around great people

After not going to Toledo for about 5 years, I am making time to go this year, kinda wish it was still Saturday and Sunday but take what I can get.

Looks good with out the hood, nice job

A set of styline ranchero decals , A 1959 promo and a 1960 builder never skirted, just have a hood repair and paint strip and polish glass and, and,and...

Pretty wild looking, and nice

It looks great now, it may not be what you wanted, but it will work out fine

seems like leave the little velocity stacks off to use hood, From the original issue

Thats a pretty worn out Cadillac, the interior looks good as does the exterior

That is really a cool build

Very nice build, fits into the dio well, which also looks good

The picture on my phone is scrunched left to right, stretched out tall top to bottom on the forum site, if I tap on Bills picture it shows me the original picture from corvetteforum.com and its fine, back to the forum its distorted ....on my laptop the picture is fine. Pretty much I can deal with it, an extra step here or there to make it work is fine with me.

Good lookin Ford, I get bored building things stock, Ive tried it,but I enjoy looking at builds like yours.
