"All Things Great and Small" (BBC?)

"Stingray."

A test of your '69-'70 TV knowledge. The actor you might get, but what was the show and why is the car in this picture? (No imdb-ing)

As beautiful as the whole thing is, the wheels really give it that ring of authenticity.

Tim, yes, that qualifies perfectly. In fact I have that one that I was considering myself. But go ahead and do yours. There are many, many (too many) other ideas I'm just as happy to pursue if and when I can. I'd love to see this particular kit in its finished form. Danny, with the addition of the Gundam parts, yes the Ford GT qualifies.

X2. The glass dome, the pushbuttons, I'm a big fan of the whole retro futurism. Glad you posted those.

That's yours Niko??? I'm SOOOOOO jealous. What a beauty!

If what you're saying is completely correct, there may be deeper issues here that will require patience and understanding... like southpier said, dementia, alzheimers, stroke? Even if he's getting too unreliable to keep track of his own meds that can result in behavioral changes. Though there's obviously pre-existing tensions, see if you can find a way to check his health.

Wow, you really did it. I've never seen that before. Looks like a lot of work but worth it if you want shiny cement.

Link to Wikipedia entry that describes what this means. Really bad news for Bianchi & his family.

This is easily my favorite. When I was kid I got chills listening to this awesome retro song and may have influenced my love of horn bands. They weren't a horn band, but this song was. REALLY dated. A time capsule.

Straight, no chaser.

Hey, I'm only a month late responding . All modeling has stopped for me for a while until I can free up some evening commitments, but it's not been put away yet. I sure miss it. Since this is a CBP, it's not just my project. I certainly welcome others to express their creativity and show us where your vision takes you. I'll continue to moderate this thread.

LOVE it!

Amazing that something as significant as that can be done with a simple vote. Historically aren't these things done with bloody revolutions?

My experience with painting white over dark or bright colored plastic is to prime it with grey first, it covers better, then hit it with white primer. If you try white primer from the start you will layer it up too thick before the plastic color goes away. Then paint your finish coat of white paint over the white primer. Plasti Dip spray would be like painting with spray tar.

Paul, that Vette is a honey. Lovely detail and that engine looks like it belongs there.

It's tedious to take and upload all those pics, but your efforts are appreciated. Thanks.

You may have outdone yourself Jim. Quite snazzy. Might be one of my favorites of yours.

Trip to Winnipeg to get away from it all and explore new places and restaurants with GF.

Hot Rod Lincoln comes to mind. Sorry, I don't have a photo credit for this nicely built Revell model.

I think retro is... well, maybe on the decline. But given the choice of which style is dead, embalmed, six feet under and memorialized, I'd say retro still has a pulse.
