DanR Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Right now I have a near completed AMC Gremlin with a chassis and engine from a '49 Merc and the filled body of the '48 Ford Coupe... Why is it so hard to stay on one subject at a time sometimes???
mikemodeler Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 And your problem is what????????????????????????????????????????????????????? We all suffer from modelers ADD, some of us have it worse than others. I would guess that I have at least 20 WIPs, but that doesn't stop me from buying and starting more!
DanR Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 I need to focus!! I'm delaying completion of the Gremlin because I hate foiling. Once I do the trim, the rest will fall in place in an afternoon. I found a Lindberg '32 Ford (the one that builds 3 ways) at Hobby Lobby for $10 yesterday and now I'm eyeballing that!!
DanR Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 At least I have incentive for the Merc' - my better half asked me to build it, picked out the color, the grille, hood, side skirts, tire, wheel, and bumper options, and now asks me regularly how it's coming along. I do love it when she takes an interest, it's a great motivator.

I would guess that I have at least 20 WIPs, but that doesn't stop me from buying and starting more! Couldn't sum it up better myself! I think I have more WIPs than there are Galaxies in the observable universe!
DanR Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 I promise that all three of these will be completed and pics will be put up!
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Quoting Wayne Buck: " I think I have more WIPs than there are Galaxies in the observable universe!" Finally, someone who has more WsIP than me..........
rmvw guy Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I'm never going to let bmf ruin my life again! Repeat that 50 times, that's the way I feel. I try to choose vehicles that don't have a lot of chrome but, when I do build one I use a metalic silver pen with clear over. People think I masked all that off all the time. No more bmf nightmares! I have about 8 WIPS going right now but, who's counting?
