Hi Everyone...new member here. Well I must admit, that I am blown away at some of the builders works on these boards. I really enjoyed the 62 Catalina buildup that Marcos performed, and the 62 Impala by Len & Bill. I really enjoy the early 60s era muscle car builds the most.
I have not built a model in 15+ years...and I am currently getting some tools and supplies together. So far I an building the same Catalina that Marcos has. The last time I built the car models, there were no air brushes, and foiling, as far as I remember...maybe there was, but, due to not having the internet I did not know. This build is on "hold" right now, as I am awaiting some detail parts in the mail...(etching, foil etc.) I would like to begin the 62 409, but would like to get some nicer, larger tires and slicks for it, as the stock tires are too small.
I recently bought Hubert Platts T-bolt, Pettys 64 Belvedere, a 62 Bel Air 409, and Don Nicholsons 61 Impala, and 64 Ford Galaxie 500 XL (Pro Shop). I really would like to post some pics of the Pontiac, but my camera is terrible at photographing detail. If I can borrow a quality camera, I will post some pics of the Poncho.
This is a really cool site here, and have been looking in on it alot since I joined a few days ago. Already got some great links on here for parts.
well basically I just wanted to introduce myself, and get involved in the model community at MCM. Thanks.
