Rocking Rodney Rat Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) I built the car in the '60s show rod style and I figured it needed a place to be shown. -RRR Edited May 13, 2020 by Rocking Rodney Rat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kit Karson Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 RRR, This is the "awesomest" show kar display ever! I kame from a time when you wouldn't have thought twice about building a display like this for you local Kar Show! The Portland Roadster Show was where I first saw a hot rod/kustom kar show! Then when we were doing model kar shows in Seattle and Goodguys Puyallup Show the Kool Kar Displays started fallin' away. Love what you've done!! -KK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 You used to see displays like this in Model Car Science all the time! This one looks fabulous and is a perfect enhancement to the model on display. Era perfect too! Some years ago my club did a display at our NNL on a 4x8 sheet of ply. There were over forty cars on display in a modular show setting and it looked stupendous. I tried to float the idea of an international modular show display, like the N scale railroaders do, when I used to post on the other Forum but the idea sunk without a trace. Maybe it's time to get it going again? I'll see if I can find some photos to show what we did. Great work Rodney, inspiration galore right here!
