slammedi'am Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) The local hobby store here had a small model contest today...So I took 2 of my cars and my son took one of his also...Was only gonna take on,the 72 Cutlass I did for the Revell contest but decided at the last minute to take the 66 Fairlane too....We entered and hung out for a bit but I had to go do some other stuff...We came back for the awards and noticed the Fairlane wasnt with the Olds...Look at the awards table and I took best paint....Really suprised me as I had spent more time on the Olds than the Fairlane..There was some nice ones there...My son didnt place but they did give him a gift card for entering....Didnt get any pics at the show(running late this morning) but snapped a couple of the car and plaque...Probably checking into some more shows next year Edited October 21, 2012 by Casey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle potts Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Congrates. It can be surprising what can win at a show. This summer I took a diorama, that I expected to place, and a 1/87 32 ford roadster that I didn't expect to do anything. The dio took 3rd and the roadster took 1st in their respective classes. You never know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VW Dave Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Congrats indeed! I must admit I'm jealous, however....one of mine won 'best paint' at our local HobbyTown's fall contest last weekend, but the award wasn't nearly as impressive.

Dave Ambrose Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Congratulations! The car looks great. I really like the way the red pinstripe sets off the yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
