  1. Hello Bill, went to Marks house today and guess what’s comming from Agora. 1/8 scale
  2. Boy Snake , you have a great list. Since I only built 1 for 2021, I’m probably going to do the same for 2022. I have a 1/8 cobra 427 comming soon. Well depending on the container issue. A 1:8 ford GT , and a 935/78 also. Here is the 935 engine so far. But since it took weeks to do this engine, I only have 52 more to complete the rest. LOL
  3. Thank you Chris, did a little more
  4. Hello TransAmMike, thank you and it’s a 935.1-12 scale. A model factory hiro kit. The martini car.but I’m making a “what if car”. My friend Mark gave several friends a 1/12 scale mfh 935/78. So we all picked different cars. I am doing a gulf oil kind of car. They never sponsored a 935/78. It’s fun because I do not have any kind of car to copy. So as long as I use the gulf colors , or close, it’s use your imagination.
  5. Thank you TonyK a little more finished
  6. A Ferrari 166. 1/24 scale. Mfh kit
  7. Here is the kit I did in just a few days. Out of box. Paint then assemble. Hard to beat a tamiya kit. For the money, tamiya is the way to go. Bought this kit for $40 at a estate sale. If you want detail, then MFH is the way to go. But you will pay for it in money and time., thank you for the nice comment.
  8. Thank you TonyK. It’s crazy that you pay so much for a model factory hiro kit and you have to have so much attention to ever part. Sometimes they fit and most of the time they don’t. File here, cut there, modify, drill , it’s crazy. I built a tamiya 1/12 Ferrari f1 kit in 9 days, this engine alone has taken several weeks. Just crazy.
  9. Added turbos. What a pain!!!! I must like the punishment. Turbos took a very long time.
  10. Added turbos. This took a couple of days. This is the hardest kit I have ever started. Every part is a pain. I’m wondering if the pain is worth it. My cobra was “ model factory hiro lite”. I’m a idiot. I must love the torture.
  11. Boy, what my brain wants to do and my body wants to do seem to be different things. Well doing a mfh 1/12 935/78, hope to finish this year. Also have a mfh 917/30 1/12 in progress. A 1/8 cobra 427 from Agora is comming. Have a 1/8 ford GT in progress from DeAgostini. When the 427 cobra comes all other kits are on hold. Very excited on this one. Going to repaint it and add detail to it. This is what my brain wants to do …. So we will see…I would like to do a few 1/25-24 kits also.
  12. I am sorry as my daughter just helped me. I just sent you a pm.
  13. Hello Bill. Can you pm me? I can give you Marks home phone number and his e/mail address. But the best thing is to call. He just does not want it all over the internet.
  14. I was just informed that mine is on the way!!!!
  15. Thank you Ray. Just added the throttle linkage. It’s so much more complex than the cobra. By the way, have a great Christmas sir.
  16. Thank you sir. The most complex 6 cylinder engine I have built. Still have a lot to finish on it. Glad you like.I thought I could do this on a weekend? Boy was I dreaming.My 427 cobra engine was a breeze in the park. There are so many parts, the engine is so complex that they would have had reliable parts issues. Here is a early build of the two Porsche engines” not even finished.”A 1600 hp monster and a 800 hp monster on the right.
