X2! I like the windows up without the top look.

I have seen at least one of these kits packed this way that the tires ended up with "dents" in them from the way they are cradled in that sprue. I suspect that kit had been stored somewhere hot for a time. I personally think its a good idea to open them up and check everything out. I'd say $10 was a steal, congrats!

Well done. Don't see many of these built.
-
Great pair of Chevys. The vinyl top looks very realistic. Not fond of the blue line tires however.
-
Great model of an icon. Well done!
-
That's a beauty! I have this kit in the stash, anything unusual during the build to watch for? Hope mine looks 1/2 as nice.

Beautiful, great restoration! I didn't know these existed in promo form.
-
Well done, the decals look great.
-
My favorite year Thunderchicken! Great model.
-
Well done, great photographs!
-
Looks like you won the battle! Well done.

That's a beauty! Great paint and foil work.

2016 nascar ford fusion using the new revell snap kit.

I agree Mark. There's a ton of good info over there but they are pretty fanatical, it gets a little tiresome. -
Nice, I missed this the first time.

Model car builders are cheapskates, right?

That's the 2nd generation turbine car, I'm looking for the "Silent Sam" 1967 car that nearly won the race. I saw it run in person during time trials, eerily silent as it swooshed by the grandstand! Hacked one up as a kid, would love a second chance at it.

Very nice. You rarely see a Judge convertible.
-
I like this a lot, something different than a Ford from that era. Love the Stovebolt 6 banger.
-
Very nicely done. Don't see many of these built, great job!
-
One of the best looking new generation cars I've seen, well done! Love that paint scheme.

I'll freely admit to being cheap! Most I ever gave was $60 for a kit and it worked me hard . I've got about 130 in the stash so there's no pressing need. If I ever do find a MPC 1/20 Indy Turbine Car I may just beat that! -
Thanks for all the kind comments. I've really gotten fond of these older classics.
-
Great models! Are they curbside or is there an engine under there?
-
Nice clean work, well done!
-
Nice work! I've always liked the look of these cars/wagons.

Latest off the bench is this Alfa Romeo Gran Sport, 1931. It's an old Union / Airfix kit, curbside no engine or much chassis detail. I figured it would be an easy slump-buster. Wrong! Cycle fenders are not fun. I did enjoy building it, comments welcome as always. Thanks for looking.
