Cool! Thanks for the information, Ryan.

Very cool! What kit or die cast did you use to produce this?

Great concept, well done. Love the chains on the slicks.

Very cool little Comet. I think they were nice looking cars. Kudos!

I think perhaps the Cabriolet goes with the french on the box - Plymouth GTX Convertible/Plymouth GTX Cabriolet.

Very cool build. Kudos!

Wow! Beautiful truck. Great scallop work. Kudos!

My spray booth area was designed with sitting to paint in mind. But I now find I prefer to stand which now means bending over to do the painting.

Andrew, if you look just below here there is already a thread about Paul & Joe both being burned out. Sad hews indeed.

You could try Scalemates. But the best source is the book by Coulter & Shelton, The Directory of Model Cars/Prices.

Fiskars makes a nice cushioned handle that fits the hand nicely. Can be found on Amazon, I believe.

Great pics, Tim. Saw you there yesterday but did not get a chance to day hello. Dean Milano and Mat Irvine were behind us in line. I recognized Dean but did not realize that was Mat Irvine. It was a great show.

Curious, Dan, how does it feel dated? Looks very modern to me. There again I still have a flip phone......

For the drive from here to NNL East the 40 minute charge time would probably add over 2 hours to the trip whereas Hydrogen that fills as fast (or almost) as fast as a gasoline car would not. Don't need to add 2 hours on an already 12 hour trip. To each his own.

Looking forward to it!

I think we can partially blame Tesla for the push to electric versus hydrogen. Somehow Musk has managed to convince a large group of people that this is cool and the way of the future. And once they've drunk the Kool-Aid, you can't convince them that there are serious downsides. Even the left leaning Toronto Star published an article on the "dirty" side of electrical cars namely the environmental disaster of producing batteries. But it's hilarious to see Tesla devotees attacking anyone who says the least uncomplimentary thing about the Tesla vehicles. In the end Hydrogen makes more sense. It could be set up at every station that currently uses gasoline. It doesn't take as long as an electric car to get back on the road after refuelling and it's just water coming out of the tailpipe.

Discord seems like an inappropriate name for a chat room service. It literally implies you're going there to argue and disagree with people. That said, now I know something new.

Seems to me we end up with enough discord in the model community as it is without needing a site for people to go argue and fight. Maybe it would be good, people could fight and argue there instead of here on the forum.

Sweet! It certainly looks like the pics of East Coast cars that I've seen.

Beautiful clean build of the Del Rio. Kudos!

Hi, Barry, welcome to the forum.

I think the Crown Vics are popular for converting vintage Ford trucks to modern engine and chassis. They will probably become scarce fast.

1 is a Hudson, 5 is a Studebaker and 6 is an International

Welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy the content here.

This is the second year it's been gone. The chief organizer has health concerns (as does his wife) and no one was willing to step up and take the show on. Also he was the chief contact with the school where it was held as he had taught there for many years. So now Heritagecon in Hamilton and Torcan in Brampton are the 2 big central Ontario shows. WelCoME show is happening in Guelph on November 4th.
