Got these recently in a trade deal. They are pertty rough, but I like a challenge. Not much detail to them so I made interiors for them, and a camper type shell for the one.

Guess I'll have to find a boat, and trailer for the one.

Junior,

I find these HO Scale builds cool and a 'blast from my past', as I used to detail both HO and N scale vehicles and buildings. I used to take the horrid N Scale Bachmann Super Bees/RoadRunners and cut the hoods open, make the chassis, detail paint them, and convert/scratchbuild Hemis and 440s for them. I did the same for a lot of the HO scale autos. Perhaps when I get the space again, I will dig out my HO stuff and get back at it. Thanks for the memories, and you are doing a killer job with these tiny motorcars!

Brad glad to have brought back memories for you. Yeah it's a blast doing these little ones. I used to do 1/25th, but the room just wasn't there anymore for them. That and I got burned out on trying to super detail them for contests. I have a N scale 39 Ford coupe that I hope to chop yet. It's a resin cast so no engine going in it. Nice thing about this scale if you mess up it's not quite so noticeable. Still just about costs the same as doing the larger scales though. I will be looking forward to when you do get back into the small scale ones again, would like to see some of your mods.
