Looks great sill Tom. Could you post a picture with this next to another car so we can get a visual of the size, it just looks tiny.

Looks great! The Eagle is very nice.

This is cool ! It reminds me of the Black Force model kit. The front is different but similar . Would have been a game changer with the brands name.

Nice pictures Gerry . I just love that forward control Jeep.

You did not hurt a thing with your rework. Looks great.

Man this is awesome !

Yes John and Harry , this is what I was asking about .

I was just talking about the price, and the way they were made.

Is this how you get the swirl look on paint?

For some reason I have a hard time comparing these hand built works of art with the average car. These cars should be compared with Art not other cars.

I have noticed that the paint comes off faster in July and August , as I do not have Air .

What you are looking for is a concentrated degreaser. I use the ZEP brand from Menards . it was made by Rubbermaid for a while but they changed brands . It is purple in color and comes in a blue one gallon jug. Just find a resealable container that you can leave the cab sit in so that it will covered in the degreaser. I just poor it in straight. As pointed out below USE GLOVES! This is a link to what I purchased last http://www.menards.com/main/housewares/cleaners/all-purpose/zep-commercial-ultrapurple-degreaser/p-1977297-c-7097.htm. Only 10.00 a gallon and it will last for years most of the time, just strain the big flakes of paint out and reuse .

If you get there early enough you can do a drive by of wear you want to pick them up at . Dropping them off should not be hard.The area by Ford Field does not have burnt out buildings next door. The NFL would not let a Super Bowl be held there if that was the case.

Now that is thinking out of the box. Awesome .

Yes that is what i was saying . I fixed my post.

Jeff check the resin section here we have a venders link right on top. maybe someone makes one. I think the altered wheel base car is a Tempest by AMT.

I agree Lee, the tires even look as if they were added later.

A base car would be awesome. Many kids drove the base car back in the day.

Nice party barge on wheels.

Like a kid he night before Christmas , except you have to wait for months. Enjoy your time there . You should try and talk your boss into coming to Detroit for the Autorama next March also.

And I thought you were going to put a Hemi in that little car. LOL Looks great Tom.

I have that same hood in a parts box of hoods. Frank. Same hole in mine also, factory AMT hole. Just no cotton glued to the bottom. Now I know what it fits.

Welcome Aboard.

Welcome aboard . You are off to a good start.

Very nice collection .
