Beautifully built, Foose has forever changed our references on what an F100 looked like.

Fantastic and very tasteful build, lots of details and (yet) a genuine whole. The interior is so incredibly nice with correct armrests etc., also the yellow extra lights are just right. This build should if anything motivate Round2 to develop a new tool for a Craftsman shoebox.

Tasteful and very promising, the big rig gives clean a new meaning, has it been shown before here at MCF?

Fantastic box art, the similarity-connection-reference with the legendary Hot Rod Magazine March 1978 is impossible to ignore. This particular issue is usually referred to as HRM's lowest point but like much else it was forgiven over time.

Nice, I can feel that the painter at the Ford factory stood beside the car. I will try to replicate this.

Thankfully not, but it took a while to find a wheel back. The gaps are tricky, but a new, larger mat has actually been ordered.

Part of the charm of these cars, our '93 model was quite acceptable, thanks to Ford having already been able to influence the quality over a couple of years. The switch to Porsche was unsettling; the quality was solid, but all the pleasant interactions in traffic and all the smiles disappeared.

Yes, or to be really picky, it's a Daimler. There are a few differences in the emblems, and the grille and handle on the tailgate are wavy on Daimlers. To my surprise and great delight, my wife actually remembered this today, eighteen years after we gave away our Jaguar.

Looks like it's LWB, plenty of legroom even in the back seat.

Oops

Welcome to a great hobby. First and foremost, my standard advice is that if you haven't built anything before or haven't done so in many years, build one or two cars without painting them. That experience will be a great help to you. One thing I really like about building kits is that you decide the level yourself, and even more so, it's optional if you want to make it a material sport. A hobby knife that can't roll is a good buy. Some have a square on the handle so that it can't roll (over the edge of the table with the blade down into your foot...🩸).

What wonderful and desirable project goals. There is much we can do, but we cannot turn back time; the original becomes only more and more unique.

Today, my workshop got a gate and a door, so finally I have somewhere to put AMT's squirrel.

Italeri is generally good I think but as always, it's important to do your research if you have such high ambitions that you're hanging out on this forum. Italeri has taken a few shortcuts with some truck chassis, but what company hasn't? I like the plastic, which is a little on the harder side. The passenger cars are nice, a little engineer-like and angular, but a little rough(my own opinion),a different animal like stavanzer wrote. Scalemates often has instructions, and it can be a good idea to check them out before you buy, as building a truck cab from flat parts with thin A-pillars and small glue surfaces take time and is difficult. The Freightliner in the picture will be finished one day when I have scratch-built a cab cover. I am attaching a link to a factory tour.

Cool, Bostic is truly a hero, a fun and fast hero. Now maybe you're ready to tackle the legendary Wiplash Camaron? The Wiplash has an intricate paint job that makes you think its older brother, the SAAB designer, had a hand in the design.
