Wow, those are very cool rat rod trucks. Keep sharing the eye candy.

LOL, Joe, how do you think they lost their teeth in the first place? The hordes ate through everything, but the TZH SQUAD appeared on the scene to STOP them!

This one is easy too, I think!

Love that color. Very nice. Keep it going.

The real car and the models are beautiful.

Bernard, I love it. Unique and wonderful model in your collection.

LOL, John! (Oh-oh, book plug coming right up!) There's a recipe for Doctor Cranky's infamous Scrapple Sandwich in my book which describes the process by which I go about making a great HOT SCRAPPLE SANDWICH. I will try to paraphrase here: SCRAPPLE is one of those mystery meats (like SPAM, but it is nothing LIKE SPAM) which you can buy in block form. What I do is I cut off 1/4" thick slice and fry it up in a little bit of salted butter until it is crispy around the edges. You can saute some rings of Sweet Vidalia onions at the same time. Slice open a 12" loaf of your favorite Italian or French bread, drizzle some olive oil, sprinkle some salt and pepper to taste. Thin cut some green tomatoes, add them to the bread halves and top with the Scrapple and onions. You can dress it up with some French mustard, pickles, garlic, a little mayo if you prefer. And THAT'S IT! It's going to boost your energy (in particular during the winter months) and give you lots of "brain" food for the brain. Oh and I think you can order it from many places in the East Coast. Best, DC

Wow, what a beauty. Gorgeous model. Will really save a lot of work for those of us always tempted to chop off the coupe!

Wow, a hot pink TZ HUNTER! Just when you thought you have seen it all. I love it. A pink MINI COOPER TZH! I love this thread!

LOL, it could work either way, but IT IS the Zombies the ones who are TOOTHLESS! HA!

Another round of wonderful builds were created this weekend and added lots of eye candy to our eyes! Thank you, and we'll see you all back next year, right?

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE BEAUTIFUL WORDS AND WISHES. I HAD A GREAT DAY YESTERDAY, and now it's time to get back to work and build more models! A big hearty HUG to all of you. Cheers, Doctor Cranky!

Look at it this way, Terry, you are about to finish another wonderful model for your collection 24 hours or not! Rob, that's a great build. Congratulations!

Andy has a lot of experience with these paints. I've only used them a couple of times and do find them tricky, but the results are good.

LOL, Lane, thank you! Yes, it's turning out to be a great 50th! Even General EYEGORE is wearing a birthday hat and chasing after one of the Pinata strings!

Steven, the shirts are TZH SQUAD commemorative shirts. If anyone is interested, please contact me outside the forum through my email. Thank you.

Keep up the great work, everyone! Cheering everyone on!

LOL! You guys have made my day! Thank you ALL!

Thank you, CRANKYHEADS. Delighted (and honored) to share this hobby with so many of you. Let there me an eternity of Styrene Addiction!

Wow, that's a great resto project. I love the color. Keep it going.

Wayne, those bolted panels look great. Nice to see it in primer. Keep it going.

Ah, that's a wonderful picture. Thank you, everyone. For dinner I am have some great Chinese food, the Doctor's favorite other than HOT SCRAPPLE SANDWICHES. LOL. Cheers, DC

Wow, Jeff, J, and Rob, those are looking excellent. Tim, I like your car too. Great work, and definitely builds to be proud of for only 24 hours worth of work.

Thank you, my friends. Yes, I think 50 is the mile marker at which you get to say or do as you like, if not, what's the use, right? I say build more models, and keep the Styrene Fevers running high! Cheers, DC

I just got my card too, it's a great reminder. Doctor Cranky wants to be there!
