george 53

Ya Got that right, Big guy! I'm gonna be back next year an I'd sure like ta see ya again. It was a real pleasure to meet you, caz after all, you are one of my heros! I'd be great to be able to just sit around wicha an shoot the bull.Maybe, next year ,hu? We could make plans for the GSL!

I've never met Bob Paeth, but I've known about him from the ol Model Car Science,and Model Car magazine. He truly is a pioneer in our hobby. My prayers are out for him and his family.

Yeah, that's me Jon, glad it was a picture book an I din't hafta read nothin, or I might still be there!!! Now go De-frag your computer, I wouldn't want it to get a virus!!!

######, Santiago, all those pics people took over there, a you the ONLY one who got a pic of me! Hope the Cameras ok! But you got the essence of why I went, Ta meet all you guys an to see 300 in all it's glory! Heck it's been 2 days an I'm still geeked!!!Thanks for takin the pic!

Thanks Lyle, Now I'll remember that an not feel like a fool when I see you guys again NEXT year!!!

REAL NICE build Dude! I thought about mixin the 2 kits pretty much like you did, But yours is much nicer than what was in my head! It looks great!oh, and in my book, yeah,it's a HOT ROD too!!!!

######, Ponch, The rides jus keep gettin badder an badder! You seem to have this Lo/Lo stuff down! Guess I'm gonna hafta give it a closer look! Thanks for the pics, they are ALL beautiful builds! Keep it up Bro!!!!

Ok 408, Don lies tu mee. Ju had too MUCH Corona an cut off de top by mistake?eh? Well bro, it wont a bad move, caz it looks pretty cool already! Let us see that bad boy when it's all finished up, caz it looks like it's gonna be a cool ride!!!

Harry, I know its just to show us, but do you think you can finish it? It already looks like it'd be a nice lookin ride. Did it start as a 48 Chev like the ones from Galaxie? Either way, it does look pretty cool, and I'm sure whatever you do to it'll be BAD!!! I like it already!!!

Guy's was there ANY doubt that he wouldn't win?? I came to Toledo just to see 300, and it was worth the trip! I had no idea what a great time I would end up havin!And all the really cool people I wound up meeting! Anthony an Santiago are a pair of nuts, who build KILLER models. And no kinda bad words for anyone! Really great ambassadors for our hobby. Glad Mr.Biggs got it, after all I did vote for it!

######, Jurg, You build, paint an cast, Man your your own model car club!!!! I gotta admit, it looks GREAT dude, you gonna end up havin a killer salt raceing team! Again, GREAT BUILDS! keep 'em comin!!!

ORALE Pancho,Dos are som tuff lookeen rides ju got dere, my man! I'm not a real lo/lo fan, but I could have a change of heart after seein these! Where'd ya get the Cutlass in pics 3/4? I've never seen it. But its cool.Really liked the New Caddy all opened up like that! They ALL look great, What an intro! Welcome to the forum, your REALLY gonna like it here! (is Pancho short for Fransisco?, or just a nickname?)

Rob, that chassis hasn't changed since they originally popped that kit, so ANY change would be for the better! You look like you got it down though. It looks real enough to me. You gonna do a Melanie Griffith bounty hunter to go with it? It sure would set it off perfect!

WOW!, What a beautiful veiw! I don't ski(bad knee) But if I did, THAT would be a killer run!

Maybe not no power glass, BUT it do got a hellashus air con system!!!!

OK Harry! Now you went an dunnit! Ya got over ta the Henry Ford Museum an took some ringers ,Eh? Well olbud, I say this ones REAL.I can HEAR it sayin" Don't trust him George, I'm REAL" So, I'm goin wit REAL! Heckava NICE model if it ain't tho.! Great job Harry, ya got me thinkin on this one(OOOhhhhh, my head hurts, it's too early for thinkin!)

Billy, my man, it sure was cool to meet ya an thanks for lettin me hang with ya! The pics are great! Wasn't them some of the BEST models yad ever seen? Man I hope we get to hook up again next year Bro, caz I'll definatey be there! Thanks for introducin me to so many guys, I wouldn'ta met em any other way! Again, Hope ta see ya next year!!!

Bob, It was great to meet you too! And ALL the other guys! Hey, not to worry about the pics, NEXT year, I'll listen harder to hear when you call for the group photo! But it WAS a BLAST, wonit? I had a GREAT time, and plan to be there every year for as long as I can breathe! Hopefully Bob, I'll see ya again then!!!

pssstttttt, Harry, are you up yet? Harry.......HARRY!!!!! I know it's not your fault(OK, MAYBE it is) But, I've got whats known as an adictive personality, an when I find something thats "stimulating" to me, I tend to gravitate to it. Ya went an got me "stimulated" Harry. I'm findin I REALLY need this RoM to start my whole ###### week off! I'll be ok though, as soon as ya gives me my fix. SO GIVE IT TOO ME!!!! I can only be so patient, or I'll go out kill somethin!!!! But since I live in ol' Deeetroit, no one will notice, Don't let them die in vain Harry,..........HARRY!!!!!!!, PLEEZE wake up, derr iz zo mush todo today my preenze! De day awaits!!!MWAAAhahahaha! Oh, de sun iz so brite!

I'm with Clay on this one Gary, Thanks alot for te pics an for takin the time to show me the wip pics of the bug. I certainly deserved the award it won!!!

Tom, thanks for the great pics!

Well Mike, Likes been discussed many times before, If you can make some money doin what you like to do, More power to ya!(kinda like retitement! )

WoW Jurg, The pics are great. Man do you build nice clean models. Other than the engine compartment detailing, and the foil trim in the interior, I don't see a whole lotsa doo-dads to take my eyes from your clean building style.Man,the color an the way she sits really set her off!GREAT build Jurg, I likes it!!!

Yep, Pat, see ya there!

Yeah, I know what you guys mean. Gregg was over in the corner takein pictures, when I walked up. I waited for him to get a quick break so I could introduce myself, and when I did introduce myself as george 53, , the look on his face was like "oh, I know you" and let me know he was a genuinely freindly person. He spoke with me very easily, laughed at my swimmin in from Hawaii comment, an sold me a shirt, all inna span of a few minutes, caz he really was busy. I'da liked to talked with him more, but like I said, he was REALLY busy!
