That's a fantastic build! It looks like what I've seen in VW World magazine and occasionally on The Samba. It would indeed have fit well in the Real or Model section.

Oh thanks George! Now my mind is fighting with this image of Pat as Barney Fife. Oh now my brain hurts!

My gosh they're hard up for help here! Seriously Pat is a level headed guy that will be an asset to the Model Cars Magazine Forum. Good luck keeping us all in line Pat!

Well Joe it goes to prove we're all different because I really enjoy the B-J auctions. I do agree however, that they get to be a bit much. It was much more effective when it was on once in January and that was it. Now they have 3 or 4 live auctions and then repackage to whole shebang to show over and over again. That's when it gets boring. The live stuff from Scottsdale is fun though. Especially last night waiting to see if the whole thing was going to blow away. To each his own I guess.

This is my daily driver 2004 Ford Focus wagon. The pic in my avatar is the fair weather summer driver 1931 Model A Ford Town Sedan.

I have to chime in and say that is a real clean build of that kit. I makes me want one. Great work!

THE OTHER THEMES ARE: Repeat: One of the things to remember is that the main themes for NNL East are: 1985: Back to the Future any vehicle from the 80's AND Pickup Lines: What's the Utes, Any form of pickup. The 32 5 window and Sedan are just the internet theme. Just sayin...

Bumbles is one sharp lookin' bug. Great work!

Hi from beautiful snowy Penetanguishene, Ontario!

Great job Erik! Makes me want to go out and pick one of those up. Nice colour as a change from the usual silver.

Somebody's knocking at the door. C'mon let me in!

Sure! Good ploy Gregg. Hook us on the new Chat room then watch us panting like junkies when we can't get our fix. Get us hooked on it then take it away so we sweat then give it back for a few days then take it away again...yeah sure I can see where this is going...we'll do whatever you want just so we can have our chat room priviledges back.. Lying, stealing it will be a slippery slope. Yes I can see it now. Why yes I do spend too much time by myself. Why do you ask?

Group 25 in Toronto is 33 years old. Formed in 1976. Anyone wanna disco?

jhuntsman: That kit hasn't been done in quite awhile but it was very common in it's day. They show up on the auction sites or at contest/flea markets.

That's a good looking Stig you have there. Not very talkitive sort is he? He'll really drive the wheels of your sports cars though.

He has this article in the latest issue of Fine Scale Modeler so I guess he's still active in the hobby. Post-apocalyptic Peugot Some "mad" fun with a rally car kit By Pat Covert

Check out the pics from the Kingston Modelrama held in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Approx. 250 entries. Check out the Futureliner built by a 20 year old modeler. Wow! http://public.fotki.com:80/fordalover/kingston-model-car-/

Glad to see some of the board's members at the show. Saw the Big Kahuna when he first arrived at the Ramada. Here are the pics I took. Enjoy! http://public.fotki.com/fordalover/nnl-east-2009/ Peter

I don't know if he is Marcos. I dug mine out from last year just in case he doesn't That doesn't help if you haven't been there before though does it?

Hey! I like it. It looks like a real little canyon carver now! Good restoration and updating on that Bimmer.

Hey! That is a fantastic build of a great Canadian driver's last ride in the Lemans series. Thanks for sharing it!

Our fleet includes a 2004 red Ford Focus wagon (mine), a 2004 silver Ford Focus sedan (hers) and the fine 1931 Model A Ford slant windshield Town Sedan (ours) named Archie the A featured in my avatar.

Yeah! You wanna bet I have to spell it everytime I have to give my address over the phone!

UUmmmm... Yeah what those guys said. Just a lame excuse to post to show my Model A avatar.
