Aside from the Corvette clip tacked on the back and a couple of extra fins on the spoiler, I don't see that it differs much from some of the other tooners I see driving around Phoenix. Now if there was some way to mount the wheels on the roof and drive it and drive it down the road on the outer edges of the rims... that would be different! David G.

That's about a year's worth of rain here in Phoenix. David G.

Hmmm.... 106 and 38% humidity yesterday... and I did a graveside service at noon... in a black suit... in the sun I don't mean to make light of anybody's suffering, but monsoon season in Phoenix can be as bad or worse than a Midwest heat wave. I know, I grew up in NE Ohio. Regards, David G.

I'm glad to see this one again. Nice progress, keep up the good work! David G.

Abso-flippin-lootly Amazing! David G.

Maybe the woman bought the car, drove it home, then had a stroke or some other health issue and was unable to drive it. Having no relatives, to make her get rid of the car, or take it from her, the car sat undriven until she died. As to why she let it set for more than thirty years- maybe it was a symbol of accomplishment- her first new car bought with cash. Maybe it was an incentive for recovery, "Some day, I'm gonna drive that car!" Who knows, I think I'll bid on it if it comes back up again. I'll have my brother in Jersey pick it up for me. If I get it, I'll let everybody know what I find out. Later, David G.

Welcome back Brian. I noticed you weren't on the boards recently, I hope everything's alright now. David G.

Very cool, thank you. David G.

Very nice! I love these stock builds. Good work on this one. David G.

Romell, As always, your work is awesome! I've learned so much from your builds. Now if I could learn to apply some of what I've learned! David G.

That's one cool dragster! I would be interested in seeing a couple of shots of the bottom to get an idea of how the engines and transmission are put together. David G.

Excellent work! I wouldn't be surprised to see this one featured in a magazine some day. David G.

I . Just. Keeps. Getting. Better! David G.

That's what I would call an "All Business" sedan. A very agressive looking car, especially in that first photo. David G.

Actually, it looks pretty cool with the paint stripped off. Sort of like it's made of pewter. Can't wait to see how this one comes out. David G.

Janne, Thanks for your comment. Yes, it is the AMT Taurus police car molded in black styrene and repackaged as the official Robocop 2 movie police car. There are a few differences between the kit and the car used in the movie, so it won't be a replica, more of a representation. And it's not a highly detailed kit, though it sounds as if you may be familiar with it. I'm wet-sanding the body now and deciding on how best to work with the flat black paint and decals; the two don't work well together. I think I'll paint it with semi-gloss black, apply and fix the decals, then hit it with dull coat. I'll get some more pics posted as soon as I have something worth looking at. Thanks again for your comments and thanks for coming up with the CBP, without it, I may never have built this kit. Regards, David G.

As promised, here art the pics of what I've been able to so far. and... More updates soon (hopefully) Thanks for looking. David G.

WOW! I'd really like to see more of this. Excellent work. David G.

I was wondering how your rebuilding efforts were progressing. David G.

Smooth and deadly. David G

There are so many cool builds here, it makes me want to jump in on the action, so count me in! I've started one of the police cars from the Robocop movie. I'll get some pics posted as soon as I get some time to take and post them. Regards, David G.

Thanks for the kind words! I've hit another snag. I want the main cooling intake and rear exhaust "thruster" to have a chrome finish. The Testors Metalalizer is nice, but it just doesn't have the look that I want. I'm shopping for an airbrush so I can spray some Alclad. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks, David G.

Those old racers just bring a smile to my face. Great job on this one! David G.

Nice detail, especially the lettering on the tail light. Very cool! David G.

Most impressive, sir! There's so much going on here that I don't know where to begin. David G.
