I never got 217. Could have sworn I got a 2 year subscription. Reckon not...

Welcome from the western end of the Bluegrass.

I saw 4mula1 on the license plate of the most awesome F40 I have ever seen. I still remember how that little beast smelled. I was at the 2005 USGP in Indy. The car was from Michigan,  so it was a driver. Far from perfect, but awesome!

That was also the race very few cars ran in. It was terrible. The tire fiasco. 

[River City Rumble Model Car Contest]

We have a family outing scheduled or I would be there. Rats...

[FERRARI F40 Concept car (pocher 1/8)]

I like the way it takes up almost that whole Workmate top. Nice work!

[Accurate Miniatures Corvette Grand Sport]

I got aggravated with my Vette, so I made a 69 Z28 out of the parts. I'll have to dig it out of the case in a day or so. It did pretty well at a few shows. 

[Help me start with Cobra builds - finding the right kit]

I enjoyed the 1/16 scale kit. 

[Extra Parts, Boxes, Instructions, Etc.]

Lol. I built my first model in 1964...

[Tamiya extra thin cement]

I've used touch n flow applicators before. They work great. 

[Issue 213]

Got mine today. 

[The 2022 Cannonball Run Year of Birth Build Thread]

I am terribly uninspired with my 58 Impala build. 

[Traction bars question]

Doing some research for my 1/12 Grumpy build, I noticed how long his traction bars are.

I have a 1/12 in my stash.

It's a 1983 Monogram kit. "Gratification"? 🤣

8 hours and no comment. Seems to be a trend.

I'm building this original kit for a friend that has an aviation background. Putting the finishing touches on it. He plans to display it with some other collectables in his man cave. It is an out of the norm build for me, and was kind of refreshing. Touching all those boltheads with Molotow was challenging. Hope he enjoys it!

 

 

[Revell Ford GT Lemans 2017]

I'll be watching too. My son just handed me one of those kits. 

[Some drag racing cars]

Super cool!

Far out!

Thanks A.J., were you a vanner back in the 70's? My ex was from east KY and we were at Bowling Green in 76 for the 4th Natls.

Absolutely!  Been to the Sports Nationals many times and camped in my van. I still miss it to this day. Had a 72 Chevy dark metallic blue short wheel base. Had a dang ball In it. Lol

I think that grimy engine is accurate. Mine never saw anything but rain water. I didn't want to take the chance of blowing all that grime on my seats and carpet. Nice project!

[Rusty Wallace MGD Thunderbird]

Beautiful job! Rusty was my driver because it ticked off all the Earnhardt fans around here. Lol

[Havoc in Brussels tomorrow]

At least he ain't staying...
