January 4th Roger Hayes, aka Plowboy passed away. https://www.lakesfuneralhomemckee.com/obituaries/Roger-Dale-Hayes?obId=26835242 I always enjoyed following what Roger was working on…he had keen eye when it came to body shapes and proportions. RIP Roger.

Guys, found some info and it’s not looking good. The obituary at the link I posted is for Roger D. Hayes from Tyner Kentucky. A few years ago I sent Roger some parts and still have his address, sadly it matches the address listed here… https://www.yellowbook.com/people/roger-hayes/kentucky/ Rest in peace Plowboy, you will be missed.

I have also been wondering about Roger. After reading the posts here I did some checking on line, it doesn’t look good… Check this link. https://www.lakesfuneralhomemckee.com/obituaries/Roger-Dale-Hayes?obId=26835242 . While I’m not 100% sure it’s him, it definitely appears that this is our friend, in one of his last posts he mentioned he had COVID. While it all seems to fit together…I hope I’m wrong.

Great looking Truck…the Torque Thrust wheels were a good choice!?

Very Clean!

Very Cool Bernard…definitely captures the look of an early 60’s comp car! Really nice job converting the Rat Roaster interior into a convincing race car cabin. The double dragster wheels and tires were a great choice on this one.

A few more 1/24 Monograms…Thanks for lookin’?

Well done…love this era of drag racing ?

Nice…very cool concept?

Good lookin’ Truck Bob! Love the subtle dark green, looks black on the indoor pics. Would definitely be a wicked ride in 1:1?

Cool old Gasser Ray…the flake on the roof is a nice touch?

Very cool truck…the patina is very believable and the blanket on the seat is a really nice touch?

Two very cool Hot Rods…love the channeled car with the caddy engine?

Beautiful models Phil…the Fleetline is very attractive and the bodywork on it is soooo…. Smooth?
