I started building model cars back in the very late 50's and early 60's.  I stopped when I graduated H.S. and discovered girls, cars and bars.  I guess either my parents threw away all my stuff after I got married in '68, or, my younger brother destroyed them all, like he did my Lionel trains.

I rediscovered the hobby in 1991 and off I went again.  I joined the LIARS Club in '92 while living on Long Island, NY and have been a member ever since, even though I moved to the western PA/Pittsburgh area 9 years ago.

I enjoy building Street Rod and Customs and an occasional Light Commercial vehicle, however, my new goal, started 2 years ago, is to build or get every make of car for every year of the 1950's...... when cars had individuality, style, and tons of chrome and stainless steel.  If I can't find or get a model of a particular car, I'll get a diecast in 1/24-1/25 scale.

My favorite part of modeling is detailing and flocking interiors.  I love using different colors and adding colored wire piping to really make interiors POP...!!
