happy grumpy

Just my opinion but as Bob mentioned, I would leave it as is , it has a special connection with you and your dad. You could build your own version of the same kit and put them side by side. Ultimatly though, it will be up to you.

Beautiful bunch, that wrecker looks fantastic, so does the background.

Thank you all gents for the kind words, really appreciated.

That sure is a one of a kind chevy. The bright red really shines. Great way to re purpose parts.

The first photo is what inspired me to finish this build. I put this kit back in the shelve I don't know how many times. After seeing that photo I knew that's how I wanted to do this model. There is an artistic beauty to an old car left in a field or desert all by itself, cooking in the sun . I did remove the fabric top and the floor. I had a few good photos of a bare metal Ford so I did my best to replicate that. I even put a few bullet holes for good measure. As always, thanks for looking.

Great looking chevelle especially in this color. The large white stripes make for a nice contrast.

Great bunch of builds.

Cool looking custom.

One of the most beautiful firebird body style. You did a fine job on this . White stripes on blue, can't go wrong with that.

Beautiful model A. The chrome looks real good , I will have to get me some. I like that you built it stock.

Great tribute to the franchise. Excellent decal work and paint job. Great job on the carbon fiber hood.

Very nice replica. I really liked the first movie.

Super clean build, looks really nice in that combo.

Really nice and clean. Always loved that model. Ready to cruse on main street.

Great looking bunch. Love the Bronco.

Great job on the 442, looks superb in this color.

A very well built and preserved GTO. Thanks for sharing .

Great take on the classic ford. That vivid green will sure turn some heads around. Great use of the background.

Perfection on all counts. Excellent photography makes it look real. Something to be proud of.

Awesome paint job both the color and the finish look absolutely perfect . Looks like the sales brochure of the period.

Great job on the impala. The interior looks great in this color. The white top adds a nice contrast to the body.

Cool bug. Seeing one built never gets old for me. Great color choice. The wheels in body color is a nice touch.

This is one cool looking rod in this combo.

Thanks Rich. I used the kit decals, somehow my shaky hands managed to behave so I was able to install them almost perfect. The kit decals are easy to position , they slide very easy they are resistant. Thank you everyone for the kind words. As I said before , I get a lot of inspiration by the beautiful builds on this forum.

Beautiful job on the Caddy. These kits are a joy to build. Nice and clean trim too.
