You hang it off the back of a Cadillac, like a lifeboat.

Yeah, think I'm gonna need a scraper to shave my jaw off the floor. That just has... everything going for it!

Fad? FAD? Ha! Ha! Ha!

Der Volvo! Holy Hootin' Flookin' Blootin'!

I keep my expectations realistic. Focus on the good stuff we are going to get, rather than being disappointed at what we were hoping for. The '62 Vette gasser looks great!

What a shock it must be for you. I am sorry for your loss.

So how many of us thought it was a Zil limousine? I know I thought it was. Then Harry said "Nyet!" Took some hunting, but I finally found the Chaika name.

That has to be one of the best alterations of that kit that I have ever seen! Nice job!

Nice build!

Gawd, that is NICE! So clean and fine!

NICE!

Oh, that is so true! Is better to just answer the question, then to show how "snarky/cool" one can be. It's a matter of decency and respect.

Yeah, John... not foolin' me one bit! That is the 1:1 real deal! The "photography session" pics... great p-shop work! Just awesome and clean work as always! Fun to watch the master produce a jewel!

I agree! Way nice! Luv the woody and the ragtop the most. I would assume the 42's were real low production, what with the wartime changeover in industry at the time.

Well, I made it up to page six before my eyes started to bug out. Wow. There... is no easy answers here. But there does seem to be some consensus on a few ideas. Good. Perhaps if the "Q & A", and the "Tips & Tricks" keep getting cross bred, then lock one or the other (and never have to correct another thing in it), and add that title to the other title. Reduce two albums into one.

That has to be one of the sharpest Cuda's I have seen!

If all that was poured into the ground, the EPA would fence it off.

Because Revell should drop all other new kit tooling, and devote the thousands of dollars needed to tool... that... up?

Nice!

Now there's something we don't expect to see very often! Looks durn good too!

LoL!!!

My take on it... it's a model car first. Even if it's a replica of a 1:1 car, it's still a model. So do whatever you want. If you think it will make you happy to clearcoat, then clearcoat. The shiny model always gets the nod. Unless... it is supposed to be satin, such as a rat rod. Personally, I would not coat over the decals, but I may clear the paint before decal app. That's just me, though.

Awesome!

I used to make the 5+ hour drive every year, up to a few years ago. Won't make it this year either. A five hour drive, alone, plus so-so health make it difficult. I hope you all have fun, spend a lot, and as I used to say to my folks in my youth when they went shopping "Buy me something!"
