The loss of ones mate is ALWAYS devistating,the only consolation being that they are with Almighty God, and at peace. My deepest and heartfelt condolences to the Gassway family, May God keep you strong in this time of grief, and rest well in the knowledge that you will one day be together forever. God Bless you and your family.

This IS the best model car website in the world, with some of THE best modelers in the world. Unfortunately, I'm not in that class, but they let me hang here with them, and for that I'm thankful.Just sit back an relax, caz your home now! By the way,Can you write a script? My old Psychiatrist shot himself, an the voices are gettin louder!

Welcom to the asylum Capt. Your gonna feel RIGHT at home here. I must add I am probably THE most sane person here(an THAT ain't sayin much!) and you will like the company of my personal commrads, ######'n Blaque,( who's on a medical leave of absence, cuz he's crazy),The Tree Hugger, IF he's not out huggin a tree,and a few others , who shall reamain nameless until I feel yur comfortable here, THEN I'll unleash them on you!!! But all that aside, WELCOME, I think your gonna like it here, and feel quite at home! Just remember to take your meds every hour, and DONT listen to the voices, caz they're jealous!!!

John, Well thats good advice, and I'll use it for sure. BUT, now I don't have to pay some ridiculous price for a 35 year old kit. I'll just wait for Revell to pop it and I'll have me a brandy NEW one for peanuts, compared to what I COULDA paid!!

Lyle, you had this bad boy at Toledo, din'tcha? Was yours a resin, or the original master? Either way, It's too cool!I got the feelin Norm will be poppin a FEW of these rascals!!!

How cum the Japs are usin cartoonists to style there cars? They ALL seem to look like they're Transformers or somethin. The bikes have that Japanese Animay look to them, I just saw a commercial for the o9 Accura and it doesn't have any style to it either. In fact, ALL Jap, Korean cars are lookin EXACTLY the same to me. But then again, I am a born in the wool Hot Rodder/ Muscle car Freak!.

Guys, are all those cop cars 1/24th? I have2 Lindburg Ford cop cars but those are 1/25th. It seems the size difference would be TOO noticable in a jellybean shaped car like the Charger. Not that the Ford isn't, but I think the scale difference would be very noticable.But I am a 24th scale bigot.It may be cool in other country's, but I was raised on 25thscale, and it's my favorite, except in aircraft, cause all I can find is 24th scale.

Yeah Hans 19/30 are the 2 guys I was talkin to from Sweden! They were both real nice guys, and seemed to be excited to be there.Maybe you can come with them sometimes, plastic don't care where it's built, and you'd surely fit right in!!!

Thanks,Clay! Yes Jurg, The WHOLE thing is commin out really cool. Sorry if i forget your in Europe, It just seems like your next door when we're on here. I wish you were, caz I'd come over an check your builds out real close an personal like! You seem tohave a good grip on our culture, by the looks of your builds. They really are nice and I don't think ANYBODY would know your in Austria by the looks of them.Austria is in the Alps or vice/versa ain't it?

Thanks Mike, and it was cool to meet you an see the lil Fury up close an personal. I still can't get over how takin the center door post out changed the WHOLE look of that car! Whooda thunk it! It truly IS a GREAT build!!!

DUDE, that 41 pickup is killer, an that Caddy(I like Caddy's) is PIMPIN! Those are some really nice rides(all of them), You've made quite an enterance! Welcome to the Best model car website on the PLANET! you'll like it here, an just keep on postin the pics, caz they's some cool lookin rides!

Well, it may Be fast, But why did it have to be SO ugly? That is about one nasty lookin mug on that car!.

Thats for sure! I myself would like to try out that "Rommels Rod" But by time I wanted to, It had been out of production for Quite some time(years) When I did find one on the bay, the foo was askin 200.00 bucks! Man I'm glad to see it come back, and I hope the greedy suckers who have original kits and are scalpin folks choke on 'em!

Hey, Daddy-O, just go ahead and subscribe. You won't be sorry, Just ask anyone who has,an they'll tell you it's a better Mag than SA. I subscribe to both and to be honest with you, MCM is the BETTER of the 2. SA only publishes 6 times a year, For 25 bucks, We get MCM 9 times a year for 30. 3 more issues for only 5 bucks? I'll take the 9 issues thank you. Besides, you can say you actually have a editor who can relate to. Not like that other guy who is too busy to talk to his subscribers. I found this out at Toledo.

Jurg, I just noticed the salt crud on the rear fenders of the truck and trailer! The details are too much ,man. This project is comin out TOO COOL! GREAT BUILD! Now, finish up that lil 32 up an lets see the whole kittankaboodle!!!

All Right Jurg!!!Now thats gonna be worthy of bein towed by yer lil pickup! I hope Lee's towing is successful at the flats!!!

WOW Lyle, Noel Neil!!! The original Lois Lane! Hey, she ain't too bad lookin for her age! Still has a beautiful smile! Too bad that Kryptonite bullet took the Soop man out!

What da heck Dave , go ahead an TRY ta build em all. It couldn't hurt.Besides, your mistakes are cooler than most guys purpose built stuff. Like we've been told, "you can't take it with you" so go ahead an give as many as you can a purpose for bein made!

What a nice build of a funny lookin lil car! I remember these from the old Superman TV show. Supe's detective freind AND Lois Lane drove one. I always wondered how they changed the front tires, but I guess when Superman is your buddy, you don't worry too much about changein flats!

Welcome Paul, glad to have you onboard. Your gonna like it here. Just keep postin pics of that lil 36 an you'll see. The guys here are all willing to help with ideas, tips, parts, what have you, cause we're all just one big happy family!!

Duuhhh You beach you! I thunk this waza famwe site!

408, maybe if ya did the chassis in a nice contrasting color, like a nice Root Beer brown, or somethin like that, it would help? You could really do some nice detail painting or somethin that would still make the chassis "pop" without the need for chrome.Just an idea, but whatever you do, that lil truck is gonna be a killer!!!

Well, fellas, I wentan dun it, an joined the Downriver Model Car Club. What a great bunch of guys! Every one treated me like I had been there for years,and was just another member of the family. I also met Larry Alexander of the Alexander Bros. Customs. What a neat guy! he's 77 years old an sharp as a tack! he had a bunch of cool stories to tell me too. It was great. I'm just gettin to know the guys, so I know it's gonna be a fun ride! Just wish I'd done it sooner! Hopefully next month I'll get to meet some of the fellas I din't get to meet tonite, Including Pat Redmon. If any of you guys have a chance to join a club, DO IT!. The commaradery is just too much to pass up, an you'll have freinds to build with, and enjoy their company.It was great! Can't wait till next month!

Merc Man, REAL nice build, and them big ol' donk wheels seem to go withit really well. I still like them ol' full sized cars, an your is cool!! Great job!!!

Wow, thats really done up nice! Don't know if I've ever seen a real one but YOURS is too cool! It came out GREAT!!!
