Joe's Year in Review

[mustang1989]

Well gang, it was NOT a very productive year for me numerically. Usually I pop out 3, maybe 4 but this year had two holy grail builds that I put a lot of effort into. One was a repop of a car that I used to drive when I was younger in fastback form. I owned three 67 Mustang Coupes and always wanted a fastback, so I built one as I would've built it had I owned one. My AMT '67 Mustang GT Fastback:
 

The real car:



On one of my visits back home earlier this year, I re-visited the first two cars that served me well in the early 90's. Car #1 is in the background and Car #2 in the foreground.

;

The second build for the year was what was going to be a first car for me as a kid but dad quickly said "Not a chance kid!" when he saw the 350-4speed combo in the car. I've always loved the lines of these early 2nd generation Camaros. The AMT 1970-1/2 Camaro Z/28
 

And then there's the ongoing build that I've had out on the bench for the last 4 months or so.  I'm now about 3/4 of the way through the build.

Nice builds

 

[Slotto]

Great builds Joe. Really like the Mustang!

[Plowboy]

Both models are super nice Joe! To me, it doesn't matter how many I build. All that matters is that I build. Maybe 2023 will be better for both of us?

[Phildaupho]

Two gorgeous pony cars.

[Keef]
