Hello from Hendersonville, Tn

Hello fellow modelers

Been back in the hobby about 2 years now. though i haven't completed much more than a couple cars. I think this time around i been spending more time researching and watching others wip's, that i haven't got much done with my stuff.  

Also, been trying to get my work shop set up better.  But i think i need to just start getting something done as time allows, and the rest will work out later. What a great place for more resources! so many great builder out there. lots to learn from.

Ive  always been into automobiles since i was a kid. Dad restored old cars and showed me modeling when i was a young boy. and pretty much built them intel i was 16 years old or so. then like most here, girls and 1:1 cars came about.  i also was watching and helping dad work on the real stuff, ever since i can remember. and then eventually  my own cars. I loved going to car shows and swap meets. remember all the models for sell and bugging dad to buy one. wish i had some of my old builds and parts still. but i lost them after my first marriage. 

In high school i had the oldest car,  a 51 chev. 2 dr deluxe with a 216, 3 on the tree. pretty much all stock except for chrome reverse rims and the paint. 6 volts and all. after that, always had a old ride. was not one to only stick only too, or favor one make or model. I've had chevs, fords, dodges ect. these days i own a 67 Ford fairlane 2 dr post club coupe sedan, with 55000 orig miles. never been restored and mostly all original with arcandian blue and 2 tone blue int. 

The most exciting thing about model building for me....and others I'm sure, is that we have the ability to build as many makes and models as we desire at a fact of the cost and time! I look forward to learning from all you guys here. just hope i can control myself from spending to much time looking and not getting anything done, LOL

  

     Thanks, Dan
