Rick was a great builder/painter and I always enjoyed seeing his work , pretty cool that you have this one and can display it in his memory . How did you acquire it ?

That's cool , well done Michael ! I never knew there were decals available for this .

I think Jim is in Citrus Springs (Crystal River/Ocala area) which is a couple hours north of Tampa so I'm guessing he's doing okay . We're in Citrus Park (NW part of Hillsborough County/Tampa) so we're on the weaker side of the storm and are expecting the wind gusts and rain to pick up this evening and thru the night , probably will be some trees down and maybe some minor flooding here but hopefully not too serious .

I was stationed on Okinawa 1975-78 and remember seeing several RHD T/A's there , all 77's or 78's . Maybe it was a conversion done in Japan ? These and a few Cadillac's were about the only "new" American cars I saw on Okinawa .

Well done Rex , you built it just the way it should be done and the way I remember ! I built one when they first came out (not a complete disaster) and have one stashed that I may try again soon .

I was just about to reply to your WIP thread and thought I'd look here first . . . There's not too many if any kits that can be painted and built in 3-4 hours and look this nice , just think if somebody spent serious time and really detailed one of these !?! Well done Ray and if it ends up in pieces I'm sure it was worth the fun !

Not much to these but they're great little kits and look very good when finished . It's gonna look great in purple , sure your grandson will love it !

Very cool little Speedster , well done !

Great paint , the red and white really looks sharp !

Thanks much Don , glad you like it !

Super nice work Bill ! I know that you're not offering anything for sale but man o man that's a nice looking GTCS ! And those wheels are without a doubt the nicest anywhere . . . why the heck can't kit manufacturers get these right ?!?!

Beautifully done Chuck and in a gorgeous color ! Like so many kits that are said to be terrible or just plain garbage this one builds up into a very presentable model .

Wow that's super nice , very well done Ryan ! I've got two original flat box kits to build , I can only hope they are close to as good as yours .

Thanks very much Doyle !

Looks great , I preordered mine a few weeks ago ! I still have the MPC kit that I built way back in '72 , it's one of my favorites .

That '70 is a really nice kit , wouldn't mind finding one myself ! Those are some great prices , unfortunately the HL near me really blows and never discounts any models .

Wow that came out super nice , lots of great detailing for a 1/32 kit ! And that color is perfect !

Same here . Now prices are getting ridiculous , luckily I still have a couple that I want to build one of these days .

A couple of 1/32 Box Art builds . And a 1/87 scale resin Cheetah . And I have this 1/87 Willys Jeep that I may do one of these days .

Beautiful paint and some really great detailing , nice work ! I really like your display piece !

Thanks much Larry !

Oh that looks just beautiful ! You may think it's not your best but considering the origins of that kit you've done a wonderful job !

Those are very cool , bet they would sell !

Thanks much Carl !

Neat little car and very well done Mario ! The diorama in your photos really looks nice too ! I have the Tamiya kit stashed away waiting for a rainy day .
