Roger what is the source for the wheels on the firebird? 

They're Pegasus Hellas. Also seen them called Hollis.

As it turns out, although I take a lot of WIP shots, not many mock ups. So I thought this would be a good opportunity to go through and count up the WIP's. I'm happy to find the list of models in progress isn't as bad as I assumed. Nine. Although by the end of the weekend the count will be ten. ?

To kick it off, a 1925 Model T track roadster.

Shadow Box Diorama - this will become a priority very soon. If I attend GSL, I want this one done. It will feature a 51 Henry J, project car.

Working on a replica of my ‘56.  I had this car back around 1978. 

The '56 will be cool Tom.  I'm assuming you drilled the trim mount holes on the side.  Cool idea for mockup.

Mock up of my '48 Revell Ford Custom Coupe. I rechopped the roof, slanted the B pillars and laid the roof down. I also made a new rear crossmember to make her a tail dragger.

That is cool. I'm build a motor home out of one of those. 

I love the ambulance idea.

Steve,

Thanks! Never be afraid to experiment, it's just plastic.

I found this Brad Leisure drawing online:

To this: I decided to add a hose reel and an old fire extinguisher to the trailer.
