curt raitz Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) Found a lot of bench time this year. thanx for lookin'... Edited December 31, 2020 by curt raitz
espo Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 You really did get a lot done this year. A lot of different subjects but they're all cleanly done and I like the NASCAR builds also. The '57 Fords all look interesting. The chopped top must have been fun.
89AKurt Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 Hey Curt, I still have that R&D Unique Chaparral 2J in the box, did you get it at GSL? It looks really challenging with the white metal parts. I have two of the Mercedes C9 kits, which did you build? Saw the start of your radial bike WIP, missed seeing the whole build. Good job on all!
Tom Geiger Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Kwap! That’s a bumper crop of great builds! Super year, making the best of bad circumstances!
bbowser Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Outstanding group of builds! Those Grand National cars are sweet and that bike is unbelievable.
Bills72sj Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 The last bike is quite impressive. What scale is it?

stitchdup Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Nice collection, the old race cars sure look nice but the galaxy has to be my fav
Curt Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Amazing and eclectic group of builds, Curt. Your class of ‘20 shines!
Slimguy Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 My goodness Curt, you got a lot done this year...what a great collection of super nice builds...thanks for posting these for all of us to see.

Yep, I won it at the auction. Was missing parts, but Gerry Chevalier found the parts I needed. I think I built the 1st issue of the C9. Yeah, I'm still waiting for Teresi to build his radial bike!

Bernard Kron Posted January 2, 2021 Posted January 2, 2021 Hiya Kurt! Great to see your annual production all in one place. For some reason I missed all too many of these here on the forum over the past year. It occurred to me that one aspect of your now-customary vast output has got to be the pleasure that modeling brings to you. The builds here range from intricate scratch building projects to the simplest of curbsides, all done to an impressive standard. My faves include the Brian Redman Lola and the Chaparral (whose 2j is that?), the two motorcycles (of course the radial bike deserves a wow!), and the '48 Chevy coupe (it looks like you made good on your intention to take on custom decals, LOL). I hope this pandemic will ultimately abate and that we can hang out together once again. All the best in 2021. B.
charlie8575 Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Some really nice builds, Kurt. The Triumph motorcycle is very nice. I also like the Bronco and Continental. Charlie Larkin
majel Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Holy cow Curt, that is a very impressive lineup for one years work!! They all look great.
Danno Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Whoa. Holy cowpatty, Curt! Don't you ever sleep? That's quite a fleet! Beautiful builds, all. I especially like . . . aw, carp! I tried to pick out 2 or 3 favorites but the list ended up looking like: ALL OF THEM ! Question: At this point, are you sure you haven't built more Curtis Turner race cars than he ever actually drove? My gosh, I had no idea he ran so many different cars/sponsors/colors! Your CT projects over the years have never failed to impress. Hope you are well, my friend, and continue to be so! Best to you and yours. -danno-
donb Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Those are some seriously suberb models. That last bike is something else! Excellent year.
1959scudetto Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 Goodness gracious, Kurt - while it took me 21 years to finish one model, you built that many in just one year (I did not count) - as a sports racers fan, I like the Chaparral 2 J most!
BeakDoc Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Fine looking builds, snd a whole bunch of em. Maybe it’s nostalgia getting the better of me, but the Beer Wagon is my favorite.
