  1. Great 'Vette! Looks real in those photos! Sam
  2. Nice, clean rod! Great paint job! The chop is subtle. I would have to see it beside a stock body to notice it. Nice work! Sam
  3. Roger, the garage diorama is scratch built. Here is a link to the thread from when I posted it in the diorama section last year. I removed one photo of it in my flickr photo album. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=42708 Sam
  4. That is beautiful! Great paint and interior. It looks absolutely real in some of those photos. Excellent work! Sam
  5. It looks obviously real, that's why I'm saying model. Harry wouldn't make it that easy!
  6. Amazing work! Just beautiful! I can see why it won prizes. Great model! Sam
  7. Very nice rendition of one of my favorite Mopars! Great work! Sam
  8. Great concept, and well done! The shredded front tire is a great touch! Maybe it blew out and caused the wreck! Sam
  9. How about using a plastic dishpan instead of the sink? No drain to worry about.
  10. I'm 62 years old, so my automotive nostalgic time was the mid and late 1960's, which saw the introduction of the Mustang, Camaro, Firebird, Cougar, Gto, 442, Road Runner and others. The muscle car era was in full swing! And don't forget the Meyers Manx and other VW dune buggy craze. On the street, there were still many 1950's cars around with wide whites and fins. I still remember going to take the SAT test at triple digit speeds in a friend's 59 Dodge with a push-button automatic! It was also a golden age for model cars, with about a dozen AMT annuals each year, plus the Trophy Series 32, 36, and 40 Fords, 57 and 58 Chevies, etc. coming out. I lost count of how many 32's I built! I got out of model cars in 1971, when I got into R/C planes, which I still build and fly. When I got back into model cars, I was drawn to the models I loved in the 60's. Sam
  11. That is cool - no, it's ice cold! Nice build, and the ice cream looks real! Sam
  12. Ditto what he said. I never actually saw a 61 Galaxie that used that Styline nose. Very nice work on all of them! Sam
  13. Great rendition of what I always thought was a goofy-looking rod! Very nice work, great finish. I like to see old models like that saved from the trash can! Sam
  14. Nice! Great color, and the engine and chassis detail are very well done. sam
  15. That's insane! Love it! Great work! Sam
  16. The hemi looks great! This should be a great model! Sam
  17. Nice, clean build, great color! Love it! Sam
  18. Doug, great concept, and very well done! The guy looking under the car really makes the whole scene! Nice work! Sam
  19. Odd proportions, but I kinda like it, except for those stupid wheels! Sam
  20. Nice pickup! The color is perfect. I remember seeing many old Chevy trucks like that around here when I was a kid, and they always seemed to be dark green - and dirty. Farmers used them hard! Very nice model. Sam
  21. Very nice! The weathered engine looks very realistic. The rolled down side window is a great touch. Sam
  22. Cleaner than clean - it's immaculate! Very well done! Sam
  23. Cool! You don't see many lead sled Hudsons! Nice work. The paint job is really nice! Sam
  24. A beauty! The colors are great! Nice, clean build! Sam
