Nothing like a SHINY :) land yacht.

Very nice color combo. The SHINY :) ties them together nicely.

Yeah. It didn't happen if there's no pics.

Welcome back, Tom. You missed some drama and forum downtime while you were away.

Nice, clean, and SHINY :)

Sharp looking, SHINY :) land yacht.

Welcome, Jordan. What took you so long to get to the bestest model forum there is?

Looks good and it's SHINY :)

I never even heard of that car, but it looks terrific.

I like it no matter what the color. It's nice and SHINY :)

Man, is that puppy SHINY :) ? Terrific build.

Clean and SHINY :) . I like it.

I certainly am not into rust & weathering and I just wanted to say that your build and the diorama are FABULOUS!

Somewhere I have those Victory at Sea LPs too. Good music. I even have a turntable to play them on. You mentioned Vietnam and the New Jersey, Pete. I got to call in a fire mission from her one time. It really messed me up, too. I was used to calling 8 digit coordinates and the Jersey wanted only 4. The round was like a freight train going over our heads and made one hell of a crater. Our 105s would shoot for hours and not make a dent like one puppy from the Jersey.

Clean and SHINY :)

If we're going that far back, the Gene Autry show needs to be mentioned as well as Outer Space Theater featuring Flash Gordon.

I have years and years of old SAE's in mint condition that I'd love to trade off. I have a list if you're interested.

Outstanding. I was watching Karate Kid II last night and change the color and bada bing bada bang, there's your model.

How about Victory at Sea? Remember that show?

We had a really good deal with the Florida Auto & Scale Trucks club (FAST). If a FAST member paid the $25 to join IPMS through the chapter, they got a Jeep CJ7 kit right away and then if they signed up for the Reviewer Corps, they got more free kits. So do the math - $25 annual IPMS dues minus a Jeep kit ($20.00), minus 6 kits a year ($120), and you're way ahead of the game.

Another beautiful build, Rich. Naturally, I like the SHINY :)

SHINY :) RULES! Nice build.

That's a hot rod. Gorgeous and SHINY :)

Whoops. Yes, I agree the Ala Kart is/was awesome. I have the kit in my stash waiting it's turn to be built. I think it was Sam Barris that built the Hiroshima?? Mercury. It's my understanding that George Barris puts his name on builds that he never touched. I don't know that for a fact though.

It's KILLER!!!
