  1. Spectacular! Great job and fantastic photography. Well done!
  2. Great job! I'm sure those louvers on the trunk lid were a challenge. Well done! I have a wild and crazy '32 on the bench as we speak (errr, type) and have the same '30 kit in cue. Wish me luck and look for me in a month or two.
  3. All I can say is WOW! Spectacular!!! This belongs in a museum or on Mansell's mantel.
  4. Less cluttered but possibly less lucrative. Regardless, nice job! I think the Gurney Eagle looks great. We don't see enough vintage Indy cars out here.
  5. That is a very cool collection, and all exceptionally well done. Can't make up my mind on which I like best. But what struck me is I don't remember Wilma being such a "hottie," or is that Pepples all grown up? Happy New Year
  6. Congrats on a good year! Really enjoyed the Plymouth. How did you replicate the 357 G/G on the doors? Happy New Year
  7. Well done! I really enjoyed the surf mobile! Below are pics of my 1:1 '65 bus and its 1/25 duplicate. Keep building and Happy New Year!!!
  8. Fantastic! The back stories and time involved for each are fascinating. I don't have room on my bench for more than one serious project at a time. The ambulance and Herbie were my favorites until I scrolled to the Black Widow. It is stunning!!!! And I have a personal connection to that airplane. My dad worked for Jack Northrop at the beginning of WWII. His first project was to design the P-61 crew ladder in the nose wheel well. Thank you for bringing back those memories!
  9. Thank you. I agree and will pursue the printed options online. Those I've seen look like they'd be perfect, but I can't tell if they are printed as one piece or if the tires are separate. I've asked that question several times, but no responses yet. Have considered grinding there tires away, but that seems like it would be dangerous given how fragile resin can be. My backup plan is a set of Torq Thrust from the parts bin. Have always liked those classics. I appreciate your help!
  10. Thanks, Steve...what kit was that....not having much luck searching.
  11. Sent Can-Con an inquiry. Thank you.
  12. Hi Steve; Beautiful builds! I have a couple questions, if you'd be so kind. Where did you find those wire wheels on the Chevrolet Panel Truck...? I am looking for a good set of wires, but want to put some pie crust slicks on the rears. Are they 3D resin in one piece, or are the wheels/tires separate...? Thanks in advance, Steve
  13. Oh...so that's the secret!
  14. Great paint and fiber!
  15. Difficult times, but your Willy's looks great. Nice paint job!
  16. Hi Steve I am prepared to make either size from any of the 1930s Ford coupes work. My priority is finding wheels that look realistic with V8 hubcaps. The example above from ScaleParts, available on eBay, would be great if I could use different tires. I have asked the supplier that question but haven't heard back yet. I need to know if the resin wheels and tires are one piece or separate pieces (two halves, plus the tire). Thanks for your help; the search continues. Steve
  17. Hi Greg I found the two examples above from ScaleParts on eBay, but I need to know if the resin wheels and tires are one piece or separate pieces (two halves, plus the tire). I want to use different tires with them. I have asked the supplier, but I haven't heard anything yet. I appreciate your help, the search continues. Thanks
  18. Hello; Found these on EBay, but not sure if they are "one piece" or if wheels/tires are separate. I have sent inquiries, but no response yet. I'd like to use different tires. Does anyone know or have experience with these specific items...? Thank you
  19. Hi Gang; Anybody know where I can find a "proper" set of 1/25 scale Ford V8 wire wheels for hot rods from the 1930s....? Thanks
  20. Wow....what a fantastic Bonneville! Congrats on your accomplishments. It is perfect!!! I grew up riding in the back of my parent's Bonneville wagon. Will look for your next award winner in 2026...or before. Happy New Year!
  21. Very cool! Thanks for the inspiration. My next build is going to be a Ford Hot Rod! Happy New Year
  22. Wow....great work! Really like that Super Snowshoe (errr, Sport) What fun! Happy New Year
  23. Wow...what a great year. Supurb builds, each and every one! You even got Ol Shell in there, and I particularly enjoyed the Ford GTs. Keep building in 2025....HAPPY NEW YEAR!
  24. Whoa...that Phantasy Pheaton is very cool, and I really like the Stuedy. Each and all are great! Happy New Year
  25. Fantastic! Please remove shoes before entering.
