Deriuster Posted September 6 Posted September 6 Hi all I’m Kat, I live in the UK. im really interested in building hot rods, really want to get the Ford Model A kit from Revell and customise it. i find kits for the older Ford models not readily available here in the UK which sucks ! I came across this forum and magazine whilst doing some research! America really does have all the cool stuff ! would love to hear of any instagram accounts to follow and or any other advice please 🙏🏻 Thank you in advance ⭐️
peteski Posted September 6 Posted September 6 Welcome Kat! While this forum is a type of social media, it is in an old-school format which has been around before other types of social media were even around. It is not Facebook, X, Instagram or others, but you can still learn lots of things here, with a large membership of experienced modelers. I'm not on any of the other versions of social media, and I find this forum more than adequate for my needs. That is not to say that other members aren't on other social media sites, but to me this forum works best. 1
meechum68 Posted September 6 Posted September 6 Welcome Kat! Enjoy your stay, lots of great folks here. Tons of experience to draw from as well. You have found a great place. 1
Bainford Posted September 6 Posted September 6 Welcome to the forum, Kat. It's a great place to jump into the hobby. Cheers. 1
Jim Dodson Posted September 6 Posted September 6 Welcome to the forum Kat. Perhaps as a Brit you'll recognize my reference to the Luddites when I disparage every other type of social media! LOL Jim D. Tennessee born, but Texas raised! 1

I rarely seek out a specific kit but buy what comes along. 1
