Lyle Willits Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 This geriatric Nascar had the left blinker on through the entire meeting. MUCH more at the link: http://public.fotki.com/mamaprez/model-clu...hilly-sit-down/
cruz Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 Hey Lyle, thanks for posting the pictures, we had a lot of fun with the guys over there, I just finished posting the pics for the guys in Puerto Rico and they are loving it........
MrObsessive Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 Gee........I wish I coulda made it! I had to work Friday and Saturday overnight and would've been too tired to make the trip and get back for work.
Randy Kern Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 You will definitely have to try to make the next one, Bill. NNL-worthy models, slot car racing and pizza in a hobby shop. Now that's a meeting! The Philly boys were great hosts, and it was cool to have guys from five clubs there.
Gregg Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 Lyle, is that `49 Caddy a diecrap, I mean die-cast?
Nick F40 Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 Lyle, is that `49 Caddy a diecrap, I mean die-cast? No, it is a model, it just has lots of detail! 8) I certainly had fun, especially with the slot cars! :mrgreen:
Gregg Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 You must tell me more of Caddy, who, what, where, why, when, whatchamacallit, etc.
bob paeth Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 I think that the Pontiac "dream car" in the background is interesting. I would assume it is a resin-cast ? bob :shock:
Lyle Willits Posted February 26, 2007 Author Posted February 26, 2007 You must tell me more of Caddy, who, what, where, why, when, whatchamacallit, etc. Well, unfortunately, I don't know the builder's name but he told me it started as a Franklin Mint '49 Caddy hardtop. He removed the roof, scratchbuilt the boot and repainted the car and added various details. He will PROBABLY be at NNL EAST.

I would assume it is a resin-cast ? bob :shock: Bob, it was part of the cars from the 1954 (I think) Autorama show. All of the cars started as plastic. They are not resin. His display has been shown for 3 or 4 years now at various east coast shows and I think they were in a magazine,,,,but, of course, I don't remember which one. I think he is with the Silent Traffic club. CAN ANYONE PROVIDE THE BUILDERS NAME?
Mike Cole Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 CAN ANYONE PROVIDE THE BUILDERS NAME? Neil Blanchette
