    Really a great show yesterday, loads of nice cars; especially a 1960 Bel Air that was bought originally here in our city according to the dealer badge on the trunk; an older lady said she had owned it since 1971. Also another '69 LeMans owner, though of a convertible, who had the car since highschool. Very nice cars and very nice morning show.

    Went east the highway for the first car show of the season, the Bruce Mines car show. 45 ish minutes on the highway which I drove; also the real first time I drove on the highway. Gotta practice for the G license test so I can then drive the you know what. Very awesome car show, better than last year I think. Loads of nice cars and some I haven’t seen before (you’ll see the pics in 1:1 car shows thread soon). Was also good because my dad was able to talk with the owner of a ‘69 LeMans convertible about parts and what not, and to get a better idea about things we need for our ‘69 LeMans coupe. Really a nice car show today it was great.

    Beautiful model, and that gas station diorama is way cool 👍

    Notice how the other two cars parked by it are also Buicks. Shows just how much superior styling was back then compared to now.

    Wow that Tatra sure was cool, never heard or seen one of those before. Also liked the ‘60 Chrysler and the ‘67 and ‘68 GTOs

    '59 Buick. Even the '58-60 Lincolns. I mean I was lucky enough to score a '59 but for others who may want to build one the kit would abviously be more accessable if it were reissued.

    My dad built that Reher-Morrison drag Camaro kit when it first came out around 1983. Still looks good to this day though he regrets not painting the body since the white plastic has now faded beige. Circled in the center is the model back in 1983

    Took HS on yet another cruise yesterday, though not another classic was sighted. In terms of action it was a bit boring, and I was banished to the backseat again, but it is always a pleasure to be in the car and out on a cruise. Now if I could just drive it... HS on the move.mp4

    Ooh a Saab; the only European car I'd buy

    oh yeah that's right it's just a thread for Round2. 1962 Galaxie hardtop then totally

    I thought about trying it myself; I could see myself probably getting away with doing the front bumper/grille, and the hood I believe would be a mix of heavy sanding away of those scoops, and I think some filler, can't remember if the scoops have the holes. I have a built '69 GTO but if I were to build my LeMans I'd probably buy the kit again. Oh and also the lower part under the bumper is different on LeMans than on GTO. As for seats; I almost forgot, my car is a bench, automatic on the tree; no buckets. But I think I have an extra bench seat hanging around somewhere. Probably not going to start this anytime soon; I still need the '69 GTO kit anyway, but I like to make sure a custom build is plausible before I actually make the commitment.

    Whoa that is actually very cool 👍

    I would so totally build the barracuda when it is released! Still waitin’ on the new release of the 1960 Plymouth hardtop though…

    Probably the longest stretch, but If I want to build a replica of my own car I would probably need that if it exists.
  16. Falcon Ranchero
    Oh yes I've seen this meme before; ha ha

    No photos, but I saw a little blue Datsun truck, a red '61-ish GMC, and a brown '85-ish Olds Cutlass

    Found out that if Roy Abernethey didn't angirly hit is head getting into a prototype AMC Marlin, the car's roofline would've been a few inches lower.

    Oh yeah those are nice. There are actually quite a few here in town, 6 that I know of and only one is a two-door. Plus back in the day my dad's aunt and uncle had one, and even a driver for it. And a same year Cadillac. 1979

    Hmmm…. knew this looked oddly familiar..LOL red with a black roof is a good colour combo👍
  21. Falcon Ranchero
    Never get tired of seeing these. Looks good 👍
  22. Falcon Ranchero
    That is very beautiful; I almost had one of these. Kinda disappointed I missed out on it but I am more keen on finding the Fury hardtop. Again, very well done model 👍
  23. Falcon Ranchero
    I like this, I have to find one of these
  24. Falcon Ranchero
    That is really neat; looks very clean 👍
