One of my all-time favorite "roadsters" Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupe!

Guys! This has been a kick!! Everyone has a story, and it deserves to be heard. Let's keep this up and hope we hear from everybody here on the forum! -KK

My first AMT kit was the '58!

This was my very first model car kit... if I only knew then what I know now! -KK

'33 Coupe mockup & Saltster

Well done, Brother!

Excellent! Turned out great!! -KK

This is the step-by-step pictorial for making the valance that goes between the rear pan under the trunk lid and the frame pinned between the rear inner fender wells:

No bones about it, Mark you have an eye for adding authentic details and an excellent execution style to match! -KK

And, Tweety Pie 2

When did we first see Bryce's roadster? Was it on TRaK? Keep working on the 3W we're all waiting to see the results of your effort, Brother! -KK

Yesterday I sat down for the first time to reacquaint myself with where I left off with the '33 3W coupe... A close look shows areas of bodywork that will need to be cleaned up... Pins & holes all cleaned up... the piece above the rear inner fender wells is a valance that goes between the rear pan under the trunk lid and the frame... More pins! -KK

'34 5ive Window Full Fendered Chopped Coupe & Gangster Deuce Sedan & Tubster Deuce Found one more shot of the chopped '34 5W on its fenders... -KK

Valient effort, Brother! https://public.fotki.com/jferren/34-5ive-window-heav/ Simple 5W chop... http://public.fotki.com/jferren/kit-karsons-33-ford/ One not so easy '33 3W chops... I will be following along with our fellow '33/'34 Ford Coupe lovers! -KK

@Rocking Rodney Rat

Pat, totally rethinking taking on the notorious task this coupe appears to offer up. Picking up on the additional touches of detail are greatly appreciated. Dare I say a hopped-up version might be hidden under that classic design skin. I picked this kit up at our local IPMS show and swap meet a couple months ago. -KK

Have yet tried weathering... now I know why! It's an art in itself... @Rocking Rodney Ratdid a job on our '29 PU V-12 Midnight Auto Salvage! Keep up the good work and your teaching all of us a great lesson on weathering. -KK

This is modeling at its best! Continue on... -KK

Gotta love a '67 Vette! Well done!! -KK

Fun! @Rocking Rodney Rat& I met there several years ago... Enjoy your visit! -KK

What is most interesting is watching your mind work through the minor modifications just to make everything fit and work together. Parts from here and parts from there all coming one at a time left matching the right a tuned concert of modified hot rod and drag car trouble cliff and bass cliff notes sounding louder with every step you take during construction, Brother! Here comes the parade!! -KK

ABSOLUTELY

Who'd a thunk? Having a deep junk yard stashed out back would come to be a thing. Actually, been trading kits for more parts that are getting scarce! -KK

Tim took great pics of all of 'em! -KK
