Bernard Kron Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 Year 2 of my return to modeling. Every build was another step along the way. Thanx to everyone on the MCM board for lookin’, for the great builds, the stimulating discussion, the super tips and information, and the encouragement and camaraderie. And all the best to you and yours this holiday season! B. The Tube Rat tubular framed ’29 Ford Cabster Built for this year's “Cats ‘n Rats†theme at NNL West.

Sixties Sam Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 Incredibly nice collection of models, Bernard! I like the classic rods. The 4 door 40 Ford is great. I never saw a 4 door 40 before. All very nice!
vizio93 Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 You did a nice job on the "Tube Rat", and the '30 Ford Five Window. Can't wait to see next years builds
caine440 Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 Very,very nice builds. You really had a good year.
Harold Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 Love that '40 Ford fordor. Nice bunch of builds .
Raul_Perez Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 Great stuff, Bernard!! My favorites are the '29 Highboy and the '39 Roadster!! (I've always been a huge Model A fan)... I can hardly wait to see what you come up with next year!! Later,
Bernard Kron Posted December 19, 2009 Author Posted December 19, 2009 Thanx for all the kind words everyone. I especially appreciate the fact that your favorites range over such a variety of styles. So far I'm building in a solidly Old School vein but it's still surprising what a varied selection of subjects and types of builds can be gotten out of this seemingly narrow area. Maybe for 2010 I can move into more contemporary themes! But I gotta have my hot rods and diggers....
