That's one lucky grandson to have a g'pa like you! He's gonna be to kewel for skewel!!! All's forgiven for not playin wit de plastik!

Ah THERE YOU ARE! I see it took George to get you back to working on your KEWEL T. Openin up the grille on a 1/32??!! Are you crazy?? Oh I forgot who I'm talkin to. Great to see it back on the bench!!!!!!!!

I don't know, maybe it's because boxes and bags are more to their "scale" (pun intended). Tom gets pissed off at Rosie because he can't fit into a 1/25 car box and I don't have any truck kits!

I know what you mean about the "little ones".

Hi Texas! You might e-mail sdrodder and see if he'll add you to the list. The way I see it the more the merrier!

Well I finally decided what I'm going to do for the "Custom Build Off". It'll probably take me another week to figure out how I'm gonna do it!

WOW!!!!!!!!

You're way behind....?? I haven't even picked mine out yet! At least we have 'till January 31st!

Oh yeah. That i'll work especially with a white interior.

Well peel the tape off already!

I'm going with model.

Around the first of the year sounds great. Thanks for spearheading this Florian!

I can relate. I ran across the re-issue of the AMT Styline 61 Galaxie.... was the chrome tree in it? Nooo. But I did run across a few candidates. Now which one to do????

Nutz I'm already behind!

It sounds like a good idea to me. A long lead time would be great as I have to finish an Impala for our club contest first though.

'welcome on the caps idear! Great use of spots for taillights. I prefer headers to stacks, but on this'un I think stacks to match the induction! X2

Thanks Bill and George. I'm gonna have to put some Zeppelin on to get those songs outta my head!

Welcome Henry. It is a great site. Although the "Rants and Raves" section gets kind of.... well rambunctious at times.

THAT'S KOOL!!!!

Thanx for the words on the Cord. Still unsure if that's what's going on the bench. Been following the build on your KOOL T. Wuz thinkin you might find some 1/25 hub caps with V8 or Ford emblems for the ends of your gas tank?!

You added more pics while I was replying. Man that 66 'bird has the look. What color is the 68 Firebird?

Neat stuff. Love the 58 Plymouth!

I was originally thinking the Cord with the Jada Cobra wheels, but those things are huge! Digging through my stash I found a Matchbox 1/32 Mercedes SSK and Packard Victoria and a 1/48 Renwall Packard that might be good candidates. Plus their odd scales might add to the interest. I also ran across a Lindberg Auburn Boattail. I'm going to have to go through my boxes to see what else I have that I've forgotten!

The clear stencil sheet looks great. The clarity is impressive (along with your work). You might look at Squadron.com # SQ9003 "Clear ThermaForm". I don't know if it is too thick or not, but it may work with vacu-forming. The people at Squadron are great.
