pure coolness Lyle!

very nice work Bill! I enjoyed watching the progress.

Happy Birthday Chris!

beautiful work!

I like the changes, way to go! I just wish everyone would drop the other site on the same day and use emodelcars! Scared to list the "good stuff"?...don't be scared, I will buy some! I have a feeling people tend to go the other way because most of us are after the older stuff or resin kits etc... Seller's worry they won't get enough money for their stuff....if ya have it there, it will sell for what it's worth! Forget about the "dreamers"....guys selling the same kit month after month for 500bucks....it's not going to sell! Other than those kits, what is REALLY high priced on the daily? Not much guys....let's get everyone to EMODELCARS so we can spend less to make more....or make more to spend less and errrr... hey it's FREE!!!! Pay to make money?.... hmm Make money without paying?....I just don't know what sounds better? (I know I am hypocritcal, I rarely sell on either site) but I would if people would do the same and make the switch! Thanks Gregg!

Work was slow, so I was able to sit and read through. This is a good issue! I understand some points made, but to me ....this is the best issue and it's not because my coverage ends up in it. I love looking at models like the rest of you. I don't get much out of how to's and advertising though. Maybe I am different, but I get much more out of viewing my peers models and getting a little info about them. I love seeing models by my friends and there are always a lot of them! The repeat models in several issues...that's not an MCM thing. I know from experience that some people travel to multiple shows each year with the same models and they are soooo nice that each show they end up getting photos taken. It's really up to the builder to not get photos, but some guys love the coverage no matter how many times it comes around. I personally don't shoot the same model twice, unless there are changes made to it. Anyways, I don't ever buy any SA issues....but the one I do buy is the Contest issue. I think that's their best magazine. As they say "to each their own". Please keep things going the way they are. If you want any requests for a change....I don't have any.

YOU KNEW IT WOULD COME FROM ME FIRST RIGHT??? Gregg, Harry thank you for using my photo of James' Impala on the cover! I will take this to work with me and drool all over it tonight, GREAT JOB EVERYONE! Also thank you to Darryl Gassaway for helping me with my articles during a rough time!

nice, post more pics please!

Nice! Wheels and color choices are key in this build, looks good!

looks great thanks for your mo'photos!

nice job! I like the profile from the driver side and everything about it is just "right".

Dang! Must be my day to see another Kustom! I really dig this one! I used that plaque also on a build, it's too cool not to!

Both are really cool! Do you have any pics of the Kustom's interior? I have not seen a 5window with a visor, I kinda like that! Nice work on the both of them.

I don't care if he wants to spell it like CHustom...I am just trying to educate the young man. If more people were open, honest and educated each other, there would be less idiots in the world. And no...that's not an insult to anyone here.

Not to keep this going, nor to even invite drama..... but telling me or anyone else what to say is plain biased. I am sure you have also said things in other people's threads that is either correctional truth or your own opinion. I don't think my welcome or schooling was improper in the least. People need to lighten up sometimes. Just going by your user name, I bet the shoe would be on the other foot if someone started misusing Tom Daniel's work. To each their own buddy. Take a deep breath and read things slower....think a bit about it and then reply.

Just an fyi Mark, George is 84 and still doing what he did. Anyhow, I was agreeing with you until you said Golden Sahara was nasty? To each his own, I know it was gawdy, but it had some major components that are still added into kustoms even today. I don't care for any Barris stuff past the late 60's to be honest....but then again I don't care much for a lot of stuff done in that period. "To each his own" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hh79rjltJJI

No need to be offended, I just didn't think we should debate any further on his thread. It was a friendly invite. Kustoms are not a recent thing with young guys..it's been going since at least the early 50's. I thought it would be an interesting topic, but obviously you are feeling cornered. You don't know what I am about evidently. " leave people that post pictures of plastic alone" <---proves my point.

I am not hammering the kid, just trying to teach and help. If you want to get into a debate on Kustoms vs Customs...join me at my place. www.thedpmcc.com/trak.html

I have been going back and looking at this thing since it was first posted and I just love it Ron!

hehe yeah I know Mark, but I never said it was not "custom"...I just said it's not kustom with a K. The spelling does make a difference in many people's eyes, even George Barris would wonder what was "K"ustom about it.

nice job, looks surprisingly cool with the Sombrero's!

What you have here is a "custom built" model, to your specifications or likes. Kustoms are much different. Kustoms are cars customized from the '50s & '60s done in styles of that time period. (see example photo) Don't sweat too much , I know you are young and will catch onto things. Welcome and again..nice job! Rik Hoving image

I realize you are a young guy now. You do very nice work for your age! If I can offer some more advice? Don't use K in custom unless it's really a Kustom.

what's "K"ustom about this, the 4wheel steering? Sorry but I don't get it. Also hate to be a whiner, but if we all have to stay away from swearing and hiding swear words with letter switching and symbols....then I think you need to change your user name. Otherwise, welcome to MCM!
