Hi Folks, I attended my first model car show last week, the Desert Scale Classic. Awesome show and I had a great time. I had my 2 metal projects together on the projects table and thought they looked kinda cool together. Here are a couple of pics.... Will post up some progress pics on the front brakes as soon as I get the pics sorted out. Thanks for looking in ! Randy

Hi Joe, Hope you feeling up to snuff now and can get back on this project. Great to meet you at the show and see all your great looking models in person!!! Randy

Hi Tim, What fun it is to come back from a great show , DSC, and find that you have some progress for us to look at and drool over !!!! The hoops look great and those x braces are just beautiful. We've got to think about having east and west meet in the middle somewhere Randy

Hi Chris, Really enjoyed seeing this in person. The more angles I see of this masterpiece the more I appreciate your skills!!! Very cool to see the body on the chassis pics. This just keeps getting better each update Randy

Hi Ray, These little guys look very cool!! Randy

Hey Brad, Glad we could spend a little time together, hopefully next year I can stick around a bit longer ! I have to tell you folks that this build is one of those special ones that does not disappoint when you see it in person. The fit an finish of this project is off the charts!!!! Can't wait to see how the clothes turn out. Thanks my friend Randy

Hello Brizio, Your scratch building skills are always so impressive !!!! Randy

Hi JC, You are a patient man with good eyes !!! Car is looking great with those wheels. Randy

Hi Mike, These are awesome conversions !!!! My favorite is the one with the Trans-am front clip. Randy

I want add my 2 cents about the DSC......What an AWESOME show!!! The Cactus Modelers put a lot of effort into this and it really showed. The venue was unique and very cool. The quality of the models was outstanding. I just wish the host club's display area would have been larger, alot of great models there. The 1:1 bikes and car displayed outside were great. The highlight for me was meeting some of the folks that I see on this forum. I have to thank Steve Prideanx , Mike Cassidy and Chris Sobak for talking about their models with me. I got to meet Joe Goss , Ray Kunn and Greg Meyers. John Teresi and Art Laski are so talented yet so humble. Brad Norgaard and Danno made me feel like part of the family the moment I got there. I even found some goodies to buy ! Thanks to the guys for posting all the pics above. I'm coming back for sure! Randy
