A little more than I do but you are on point. I guess the days of "just getting to it" are behind us. Replaced by far more accurate builds and better paint jobs. Bob

VERY exciting news. Revell is showing why they lead the kit market here in the States. I'm getting several. Bob

WOW, what a diverse bunch we have! Me? I worked at the same garage for 17 years fixing Audi, Mercedes, Volvo, Alfa, Aston, Porsche, Peugot, VW and the occasional Escort. Played Rock N Roll 2-3 nights a week for almost all of those. After the garage was gone [sad story] I dabbled in a few other things like selling tools and actually working for Mercedes Benz before winding up on the counter at the local Baltimore NAPA. Bob

Ridonkulous!!!! Bob

I don't have a pic but my Dad still has my 1/32 Monogram Fiat gasser i built from around 1976 or so. of course he also has almost everything I have done since then. About 450 builts in his collection. Bob

I went to URI for 3 years. Didn't build one model during that time. I chased girls and played in a band then. Model cars were the LAST thing I was thinking about. Bob

Monogram showed their kits for many years. it's why I bought a great many of them Bob

Yessir, the fall and winter is when I too get back to the serious business of building. Should be fun. Bob

Hideous..... Once you see something, you cannot un-see it. Thanks

Currently reading Stephen R Donaldson's "The Last Chronicles Of Thomas Covenant". Pretty Epic stuff. If you like Fantasy/Sci Fi Donaldson is one of the best. Bob

Geez that B#da$$ Wayne...... Bob

The car is worth asking price. Is there another better? Will there be 50 years from now? A Pittance if I'm asked [which I wasn't].... This is GRAIL, not some 69 Camaro with manufactured provenance, and we have seen a few of those. This is Muscle Royalty properly documented and case delivered. It's like the 39 mile 1970 Chevelle SS. It's a fact... It's documented. No one wishes to pay its worth... TODAY. Cripes!!! I'll be dead and gone [most of us will], before most of these cars enter the regions of the unattainable. They are attainable NOW. Pony up Beotches, You got a chance.... Bob

WOW, LUCK is the only word that comes to mind here. I am very happy that things were only as bad as stated. It could have been far worse. Your son did a wonderful thing and helped save that boy that was on the road side. I hope there was a lesson learned and that the future will see them BOTH wearing helmets. In 1985 I was in in Daytona during bike week on my scoot. At only 15 MPH I was run off the road and stuffed underneath a mailbox with multiple fractures, punctured lung and a broken bike to boot. All by a 72 year old retiree who was late for his Tee time. I had a small skullcap on which is my preferred helmet and that was all that saved me from being a drooling idiot for the rest of my days. I still have most of the scooter and [arguably] most of my grey matter. I consider myself lucky and I'm certain they do as well. 6 years later I was AGAIN run off the road at a much higher speed and again was saved by my admittedly small skullcap type helmet. Although considered a minor accident by the police and Ins co it was not minor to me. Bike accidents are NEVER minor. Nice to know they are in good nick. Bob

Geez! What those other guys said.......................................................... Bob

Shane is BACK!! This pleases me.. I too have been on hiatus building wise but your return may signal mine as well buddy It's looking great as per usual Shane. Bob

A Masterpiece!! Bob

I've been playing Battlefield II for almost 7 years now and Batllefield III since it came out. That and M.A.M.E. and the bench can get lonely. All on PC of course. Bob

Short drive from B-More, I'm in Ken Bob

Nice build of a super cool kit. Bob

Gosh darn it, that's nice!!! Bob

Your builds are always super tight. A pleasure to look at them Bob

VERY cool. A tad poppy for my tastes, but they chose cleverly. Looks like fake me out Tamiya to boot. B

Flakier than an ex girlfriend. I like it. Bob

The best 2;21 I've spent in months. Thanks Bob

Guess I'll throw it away then..... Bob
