vamach1 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 It’s taken a while since the move six months ago from VA to FL but I bought some extra shelves for these three display cases and finished arranging them today. The sizes range from 1/144 to 1/16. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramps46 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Excellent displays Rex. Must have been quite a chore but fun too getting re-aquatinted with all of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been many years but I remember the IMC J-Car being much better , is that right ? Been looking for one and may get the one on ebay right now .

Yes the MPC kit goes together very well compared to IMC version. The J-Car has a lot of parts in common with the MKIV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted February 11, 2022 Author Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) These three kits ( the MKII and roadster are Lemans Miniatures) are hard to see in the first photo of the display. I wonder why😄 Edited February 11, 2022 by vamach1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A oldie but good won a 3rd place today at an IMPS show. I probably built that kit 30 years ago or more. The gentleman that runs the show said it was of the worst kits ever made and was therefore impressed I built one that actually fits together pretty good. For a 55 year old kit I think it was way ahead of its time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safire6 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Congrats on the Ford GT40 win Rex! And I really like those display cases too. Can I ask where you picked them up from? I'm starting to run out of shelf space and am looking for something just like those. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
