What are you not going to get finished this year? Here are a few of mine with no hope...

Oh, sure, I've got more, but these are the ones I'm pretty sure I won't be touching anytime soon!

I was hoping to get these two done, but as they say - Life gets in the way. The land speed Vette was moving along pretty well, then got sidelined by one project then another Vette project. That's the second pic. Then we decided it was a good time to move. It was, and we got a what will eventually become our dream home. But my building stuff is still packed away. On top of that I am working on my teaching credential. So these two will sit until 2011. The Land Speed Vette will follow the Drag Vette.

Model wise, I'm surprised I even got that Challenger done...........RC wise, I've been working on this one for nearly 2 years now.......it's painted and that's about it :(

More annoyingly, I haven't even gotten around to photographing it since painting it :(<_< <_< <_<

Probably the only one out of 50+ I have started is a phantom factory concept 65 Chevelle topless wagon, with a 66 Chevelle interior, chassis and drivetrain.

There is a good chance that the '66 Nova that I started over 6 years ago (and moved from Illinois to NC) will see the display case. I have been busy as of late and hope that the Thanksgiving weekend allows me to get caught up and put a few more in the "completed" category.

Once I clear my modelbuilding desk, I will tackle that box of "WIP"s that I have yet to unpack from the move 5 1/2 years ago. That might happen over the Christmas holidays but no promises!

:) I dig your avatar. My picks are the old Buick, '56 Chev,

the Rambler wagon, and the VW with orange top. Is that a 48 Chev on a smoothed vdub body? keep a pluggin'.

ps - have a grey cat also ~ not as fuzzy tho. I named him Fizzle when he was small because he wasn't fuzzy.
