You have an amazing production line turning out top notch cars of such a wide variety

Spectacular Deuce. Fantastic paint job. Very well done top to bottom. Looks very much like a 1/1 '32 Booby Alloway built a few years ago.

The Hirohata Merc is going to be auctioned Saturday January 15, 2022. Check out 73 photos of what the car looks like now. It is going to be interesting to find out how much it goes for and where it ends up. I am going to try to watch on-line. 1951 Hirohata Mercury Custom | S152 | Kissimmee 2022 (mecum.com)

Great photos of GT350R prototype which is going to be auction Saturday January 15 1965 Shelby GT350R Prototype | S160 | Kissimmee 2022 (mecum.com)

Thanks David - I have really enjoyed doing the conversion. Next time you see it I hope it will be Under Glass before the end of the month.

Fantastic project. I have been watching Dakar 2022. There are some incredible looking vehicles competing especially the Audi E-Trons

That is a fantastic idea. I bet it would sell very well on its own right and also for all the cool parts it would have like the engine, chassis and wheels. I have yet to build the Foose Cadillac and will likely use the interior and running gear under a different body. There have been many other the cars that have come out of Kindigit Design that could be scaled to make worthy and popular models

Thanks guys. The model was no longer in my display case and I came upon it in the attic looking for something else.

Excellent pair of models that look great in your photos. Well done. The California Kid is still on my want to build list.

Thanks guys - I thought about making a few changes to my old model including paint to make it more like the Kindigit car but I have new projects to get finished

I just finished watching the Bitchin Rides episodes on the Kindigit CF1 Corvette. As always the cars that come out of Kindigit-Design are superbly designed and built. It did get me thinking of a model I built 15 years ago combining the Revell Tom Taylor designed Vette-Agin with body panels from a stock '53 Corvette.

Great project and introduction. Looking forward to seeing it at GSL in 2023

I figured I had better finish the whole under body assembly to make sure everything fits. You can see how I removed the rear wheel tubs and shortened the interior side panels. I decided to build the Ranchero how I would have liked one to be if I had owned one as a young guy back in the mid-1960's with a hot engine, Torque-Thrust wheels, a floor shift and a tachometer. The FE engine came from a disassembled AMT '60 Ford and the wheels and tires are from a Revell Deuce. The dark green "upholstery" is kit decals. The door panel decals do not fit properly as the cut outs for the arm rests are too high. I did have to do some trimming to the leading edge of the dash to assure the windshield will fit properly.

Great looking model of your very attractive race car. A model is so much better than a photo for bringing back memories.

Arrived Victoria BC Canada today January 4/2022. Looking forward now to 211.

Great project and I look forward to following your progress.

Fantastic to see all your 2021 builds in one place. All are very interesting, well thought out and built.

Three great models. I am glad i checked in as I realized I missed your 57 Under Glass. It turned out fantastic. Looking forward to more from your bench in 2022.

As mentioned above I decided to separate the wheel tubs from the floor pan and attach them to the pickup floor and added molding on the side panels.

Thanks Mike and happy New Year. It sure would have been great to see and hear those two gassers racing. Thanks Ed - I was sure pleased when the kit was re-released in white plastic. I was never happy enough with the more available AMT Willys to ever build one. It is very satisfying to finally have a SWC in the display case. Happy New Year

Two great models from two great model builders

Great looking cars with fantastic well detailed engines.

Great thread. Enjoyed the models and the history.

Incredibly cool and well done. Love the concept, the livery and the wheels.

Really nice to see your old MB F1. It really was very shapely for its time. Mercedes always made great race cars and still do.
