  1. It looks like the '70s, I remember seeing a lot of these on the road. Nice, clean build. The spare had to be out front or maybe a small motorbike.
  2. Nice job Tulio, every nut and bolt looks right. I have always loved this model and you have done it justice on a factory stock replica.
  3. I like this old issue, that's the way they were, very fragile especially the door hinges. It took me a couple times. The real truck was not much better. I had a '41.i like the gold, looks very old school.

    My Ford T

    Nice looking T. Is this 1/8 scale or the little 1/24th? It is hard to tell.
  5. Bold color choices indeed! I like it though.
  6. Nice job Tim, very clean build, maybe it's the white. Great hot rod, looking forward to building a few of these.
  7. Wow! That was quick! I was just looking for this and POW!!! What a surprise when I just read to "Look for the Prince." Nice job on the graphics and the photo in the decal. Way over the top! Well, maybe not for you. Nice job on a show stopper. Love it!
  8. I like it a lot! I want to do one of these now.
  9. Nice custom! No problem on the exhaust, I do it all the time, cut it then just piece it together like on real cars. Just a different way of looking at things. I wouldn't change a thing on this one though.
  10. You are an artist with another blank canvas, love it! Hope to see many more of these from you like your '50 Chevys.
  11. Nice looking model! I love the colors and the overall look.
  12. Beautiful examples. Thanks for sharing with us.
  13. THANKS Danno but, nothing wrong with building models, besides I can't spend all day in the Sun with my fair skin. I did manage to swim in the ocean and pool several times a day while the glue and paint dried. WIFE WAS BUSY READING AND SHOPPING. Nice vacation and very relaxing for just the two of us. We were celebrating 40 years of marriage without the kids and grandkids along. Been working on three models since we've been back home with none complete after almost 3 weeks. This is more my normal pace.
  14. I still love all the AMT '32 Fords having built them many times. This one is a great kit. I always wanted to do the box art like yours but, don't know why I haven't. You really nailed it, what a great look!
  15. It looks exactly like my first car when I bought it 50 years ago for $300. The seller kept the neat wheels. I painted it blue, my favorite color. It looks better in red I will have to admit. Nice model. Thanks for the memory.
  16. I like this one. Would look good next to a VW. Lol i actually have one of these minus engine, more like a promo. Also missing boot and top. I bought it from a guy along with Ghost Busters Cadillac to do a conversion, his idea, as he needed some cash. I will probably never finish it. Did yours come as a complete kit or did you have to modify it with engine and so forth? Just curious. Also is that paint or polished plastic. The pink looks exactly like mine.
  17. Looks fantastic! Wish I could have made the meeting to see all the rest. Since you mentioned the too short driveshaft, I have seen this subject come up in the past. I think I recall someone saying upon research he found that the wheels were not centered in the openings but, instead came forward allowing room for extensive travel to the rear suspension. Remember the roads of it's day were very poor at best and the Model T was an all terane vehicle. At the center of travel the wheels were close to center of fenders. Just a tid-bit , does that make any sense for the too short driveshaft?
  18. It looks perfect to me! This one is on my bucket list.
  19. Different and cool, very creative. Nice job.
  20. Beautiful build. That's the way I like 'um. Right color, right stance with a good story on why you built it. Awesome.
  21. I love all the new photos. Thanks for including them.
  22. Very nice, your friend should be happy.
  23. It looks like candy to me! Nice job.
  24. Beautiful paint work on a nice model, what is a million dollars in scale money? That's what you should set your reserve at on eBay.
  25. It looks good Jim.
