David G. Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Thank you to Cactus Car Modelers and their many sponsors for hosting another great model car show and swap meet. I had a great time looking at all the entries and even entered five builds myself. My first time participating in a real model car contest. I didn't take home any awards, but I did win a kit in the raffle and had a great time chatting with other modelers. I also found a few kits I've been looking for. The 71 Charger is the kit I won in the raffle. Thanks again for another great model car event! David G.
Agent G Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Man I so wanted to get there this time. We're so short handed at work they went and left me in charge over the weekend! Looks like I saved some $$ though! G
my80malibu Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 It was a good show we really missed some of the regulars this time. But hey maybe next year. I picked some really cool stuff at the swap meet and raffle, Saw some great models, said hello to some friends All in all a great day.

Looks like I saved some $$ though! G You could've saved more if you were there... Based on retail/ebay prices, I must have saved at least $50 or $60 on the kits I picked up! David G.

Mooneyzs Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 This was a great show this past weekend. A big thank you to the Cactus Car Modelers and to the MoonLight Modlers for putting on this show. Was a great time to be had by all. There were many beautiful builds and nice to see them in person. I wished that I could of met and talked with more of you but to those that I did get to meet and talk to, it was a pleasure, What a great bunch of guys. I look forward to to the show next year and plan on being there for sure. Thanks again everyone!
AzTom Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 It was a great show, sold more than I thought we would and took some hardware home I did meet a few more new guys from MCM this year but still missed some of you again. We need to get them to announce a get together during the show or wear MCM badges. I'm starting my plans for 2012. Tom
Mike Kucaba Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 I too had a good time. I wasn't feeling that great as I was "breaking in" a new lower partial denture,but the show and swap was great. I unloaded a few items,so the "pile" got a little smaller
Rob M. Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Hey guys, glad to hear it was a good show. Hopefully, I can make it up from Tucson next year, sounds like it's worth it. I'm new to this forum but have been building models forever. It's kind of dead down here in Tucson when it comes to modeling so I'd like to see what goes on up there. My specialty is Northeast modifieds, both dirt and asphalt (being retired out here from NY). I have stuff posted on a few sites back east but nothing here yet. Is there a section on this forum to post that kind of build? Thanks for the help. Rob
