Daaang Gary! That trailer and load is looking great! The tiedowns and labels add a lot to the realism. David G.

The chassis is coming along quite nicely, top notch work on that! David G.

Hello Everybody! Just a quick update on the ambulance retrofit. I spent some time using hot water to straighten and reform the most warped of the castings. It's definitely easier to work with in this manner than styrene. Resin is softer and more susceptible to heat and seems to have a bit better shape memory. Following that, I spent about two hours filing and cleaning. The two side rails are very rough, I'm not sure I can use them. I'm trying to decide if I want to build my own set or omit them altogether. Here is a rough knock-together mock up just to see how everything goes together. I'm really glad that most of this gurney will be permanently hidden inside the ambulance. As always. Time is the only thing that we can't get any more of, thanks for spending some of yours here following along. And please feel free to post any comment or thoughts you may have. David G.

Thank you Carl, I've sent you a PM. Thank you for your kind comment Steve. It's true about the rabbit holes, If I didn't rein myself in I'd probably never finish a build. David G.

Thanks for the link Thomas. It was a pleasure to see all three Lambos together. Fabulous paint and detail on each one of them! I built the Fujimi Lambo kit last year and boy was it fiddly! It's the one with the operable doors. I got them to work, but just. Here's a link to the WIP if you're interested. Thanks again for the link! I'm not sure how I missed then but I'm glad to have had a chance to see them. David G.

Gorgeous builds, all of them! David G.

Excellent work on each one! Kudos to you for wrangling all those decals! You must have a lot of patience. David G.

An absolutely beautiful set for the year! I'm partial to the Lambos, which kits are they? David G.

Impressive work as always Marcos! Each one is fabulous but if I had to pick a favorite I'd go with the Charger. David G.

Thank you Bob! David G.

A great looking set of builds for the year! Fabulous paint and detail on each one but I especially like the purple Ford. David G.

Exceptional work on each one Ryan! If I had to pick a favorite, I'd have a hard time between the Packard and Starliner. David G.

Yes indeed. I always try to be polite whenever I can. I did consider that Carl but I'm trying to keep this one as uncomplicated as possible. I don't want to go too far down the rabbit hole. David G.

Nice set! I especially like the Ford Galaxie. David G.

Nice rescue! David G.

A very cool project and a respectable challenge. What you've put together so far looks great, I can't wait to see how you make the rest of it work. But it's like I say: "Model builders, we're problem solvers who create our own problems to solve!" David G.

Paint, detail and construction all look perfect, what a beautiful build! David G.

Hello Everybody! Just a bit of an update for the Surf Shark ambulance retrofit. To help dress up the interior and draw attention away from the Ghostbusters equipment I purchased a gurney from Three Inches Under. Unfortunately the castings are a bit on the rough side and have some warpage issues. I can certainly address these but it would have been nice not to have to. It's like I say: "Model builders, we're problem solvers who create our own problems to solve!" As always, please feel free to comment if you feel so inclined and thanks for taking the time to stop by for a look. David G.

Thanks Carl, it's always great to have you along. I appreciate your kind words. Thanks, David G.

Nice catch on the molding issue Kevin as it certainly would have shown itself after you put some color down on it. Speaking of color, that blue over the silver looks fabulous! David G.

It looks good Pat. After the way it's fought you it must be nice to be so close to finishing this one. David G.

That's a great color for a Corvette Joe, and the paint looks beautiful. I can't wait to see how the wheels turn out. David G.

Thank you Jim. These cars are huge! I had the chance to drive one years ago and it was like driving a ground-level bus. Similar to driving a full presidential stretch limo but not as maneuverable. Thanks again for posting you comment Jim. David G.

Thank you.

I didn't know that there were that many Brass Era kits out there! ? Fabulous work on each of them. David G.
