Ramfins59 Posted September 26, 2015 Author Posted September 26, 2015 Bumping this and hoping to see some Forum members at the Show this Sunday.
Nacho Z Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 The normal, (or abnormal, I suppose), crew from WV will be attending. I'm guessing around 8 of us, maybe a few more.
Ramfins59 Posted September 26, 2015 Author Posted September 26, 2015 Looking forward to seeing you again John.
Impalow Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Great show yesterday, Nice to see everyone and meet some new people! They appear to have posted some photos on their website:http://www.threeriversautomodelers.net/2015-show--contest-pictures.htmlLots of top notch work on the tables.
Ramfins59 Posted September 28, 2015 Author Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) Yes it was another great show with fabulous models on display. Vendors galore too. I was fortunate to win some awards. My '40 Ford Convertible took First Place Street Rod and Best Interior. My '51 Chevy Fleetline took First Place Custom..........and Best In Show...!!! You could have knocked me over with a feather...!!! In my opinion though, the model that should have won Best In Show was a Large Scale sunken submarine that had an unfortunate meeting with an underwater mine. Edited September 28, 2015 by Ramfins59
