Ramfins59

Welcome to our plastic playground Jim.

Since I got into my "build or get all of the 1950's cars" quest 3 years ago, I've bought all of the 1/24 - 1/25 plastic or resin kits, builtups, promos and diecasts that I've been able to afford on my limited income from either show vendors, online sources or EBAY. I'll pick up newly issued kits of other cars that interest me now and then ('47 Chevy's by Galaxie, '29 Roadster by Revell). I have enough cars in my TO DO pile to last me several years at the rate I've been building lately. I have a stash of about 100 kits of which about 30 are Street Rod kits that are just waiting for some attention once I complete the 50's car quest. I keep looking to fill "holes" for the years 1950 through 1954 but the pickings are pretty slim for those years. The search for "filling the holes" is fun and especially rewarding when I can acquire a car that I've been looking for at a reasonable price. Hopefully I'll live long enough to be able to complete my collection.

That's why we left Long Island, NY 9 years ago. The R.E. taxes on our high ranch home on a quarter acre hit $10,000 yearly. Here in western PA, for our 3 bedroom ranch on an acre they're only $2,300 "at the moment".

Welcome to our plastic playground Stan.

Great job Philippe.

That's looking great so far Sam.

You did a great job on that Chevy Jim.

Welcome to our plastic playground Philippe.

As far as I know it's up and running...... But there's never anyone in it...!!!

Welcome to our plastic playground Mac.

I absolutely agree Ray. Yes I get annoyed when I get sniped at the last few seconds, but sooner or later I'll win the one I want... It just takes a bit of patience.

Great looking wagon Paul.

Great work Spencer...... you've been busy.

You got some really nice stuff there Tommy.

A nice variety of good looking builds Jesus.

Nice work on all of them Sam.

Great work on your "year of the decal" Bernard.

You had quite a productive year Michel... good job.

Good job so far Tom. Making and/or accumulating the detail stuff is a lot of fun. I've been accumulating various luggage type stuff/parts for when I eventually build my '59 Rambler wagon kit.

Nice variety of subjects Derrick, and good job on all of them.

Wow Chuck, congratulations on finishing all of those models... you were very productive....... and did great work on them all.

Great group of models Emmanuel.
