After years of entering various (uk ipms) model shop competitions, and getting several 2nd's/3rd's and highly commended i finally got a win !
POOLE Annual model show last weekend first place in Class 6 (civilian vehicles),,,,
Thing is i was trying to get my FRANK IACONIO Pron Stock car done in time but failed so grabbed this old JOHN COLLINS Funny Car instead,,,,,glad i did now !

Congratz Sean. Feels good all over, doesn't it? Especially that part where they call 3rd, then 2nd, and your name hasn't been called yet.

Here's to many more.

Congratulations on your win. You never know which one the judges will like the best; The last show I went to, the car that I thought was my best didn't do anything, but the other car that I was talked into bringing by my family took First. It gos to show, you just never know. Again, congrats.

Looks like a nice build. I really like the contests that limit individuals to one win per class. Just seems like a way to reward more people.

Congrats on the win! Looks like you use a couple of model to build that car. Starting with the MPC kit.

Would love to see some photos with the body down.

Thank you all for your kind comments, and heres a body down shot for Dave, the main parts body & most of chassis was an AIRFIX Black Belt funny car (probably a repackaged MPC kit for Uk sale) Slixx decals (didnt fit this body side stripes had to be cut into 20 sections each side !)
