[Romell R]

Hey guys we would like to see the crown jewl of your collections the one model you love the most....So post em up here for all to see. And feel free to leave a brief comment on why its your fav. Let's have fun with this one !!!

[Romell R]

This is my favorite build of all times, because Its the model I introduced my wife to my hobby with. I started this one the day we returned from our honeymoon. She didnt know that I built models but she was really pleased to see the quality of my builds (she even helped me out at times) This one nolonger exsist as it was a victom of UPS shipping (which is another story).

I hope you enjoyed!

Well, of all of the slot-car bodies that I did, this one is my fave, just looks so dang cool

It also shows my sculpting in the fact I did that blower scoop & casted it.My all-time fave is this Willys coupe. I stuffed a Ross Gibson motor in it. I've sold several other full builds, but this one isn't going anywhere!!!

[Scale-Master]

I am especially partial to this one… While not scratchbuilt, it contains more scratchbuilt and hand machined parts than most models. Lot of little things stuffed into it. And it is blue! It is also the 2007 GSL Best of Show, Peoples Choice BOS, and The Augie winner.

This is my most prized possesion. Tho built by my buddy Dave Reese, I was fortunate to acquire it this week. He builds amazingly clean models, and when the Hairy canary became available I had to have it. I was at Fremont Drag Strip in 67 for a match race with the Canary, Brutus, Samson, and a few others. I was 50 feet off the track, at the traps, and the Hairy Canary came flying throuh, 16o mph, crossed up, rear wheels in the dirt, never lifting off the throttle. Of all the grails, this is the most absolute hoiliest of the holiest. I am proud to display Dave's work, and most proudest to have it in my collection.

Yes Mark, great one. I remember watching that one go together.

[bbowser]

Mark, there's no oil on the dipstick! You'll burn 'er up. What an amazing build.

This one is my proudest to date...

I really enjoyed all the little camper details, something different. My first real attempt at kit-bashing.

[Eshaver]

For me , I dunno Rommel. Ive actually got a few that "Rank ". I guess this one , a 1921 Kershaw . The company only produced the one model and none are known to exist today .

Some beautiful models there guys. They are truely drool worthy.

[Bartster]

Wow! you guys set the bar pretty high. Beautiful models, one & all.

It would be the pumper based on the 1/16 scale HWY 61 truck. It was the most work that I have put into one of my conversions. It required shortening the wheel-base and lengthening the front bumper attachment and scratch building the rear body and the pump and piping, hoses and ladder mount etc. It is a replica of a truck used by the local department and not just something that I dreamt up so it had to be authentic looking. It now has pride of place in the Chief's office.

My Lo-Lo's..

Actually, it has clean synthetic in it / on the stick…

Ed Shaver

If none exist… what about that one in the photos?

[Jantrix]

I think it has to be my shop truck and salvage trailer. Two first place trophies so far.

[Harry P.]

Ok, am I seeing things or are the numbers on that plate actually embossed???

[Guest]

This is for you Danno!! Don't really know why, it's just one of my favorite builds.

[Haubenschild]

I am proud of this one because its the 2nd or 3rd model I had built

[Scale-Master]

You are seeing that correctly, the lettering is raised to replicate a stamped plate. It is reflective with proper (also reflective) tags too.

[moparmagiclives]

This is my best so far. #4 of my long (so my wife says) line of models to finish. I was able to incorperate a little of everything I've learned so far from this site and the magazines I've been able to get the last few years. I'm not very fast.

[SuperStockAndy]

How the heck did you raise them? Punches I'm assuming?

Ok... so the obvious question is... how the heck did you do that?

[Jantrix]

A magic wand. Seriously.

[Dave]

OK this may not be my best build, but it's one that made it to a magazine, so I'm pretty proud.
