Thanks Curtis.  I'll have to put that kit on my list.

Found a couple at a semi-local hobby store. And they do unadvertised flash sales, so these were significantly discounted, which is always a nice surprise.

Just back from HL. Went to get a detail brush but then stuff happens. A little scared of the lightning because of the tailgate issue but mine was the last thing put in the box.

Wow, that was FAST!  Won this pair of Heller Gullwings on eBay Sun. night, 12/30.  They were delivered by the USPS today, 1/2.  Pretty impressive, especially considering it was over a major holiday.

Went out on a limb, going to try Splash paint.  I got the Lambo and photo-etch some time ago, was thinking of painting it green, but everyone else is doing that, and I like purple.  Plus had to see what the Forged Carbon decal looked like.

The Beetle is going to be a replica of what my parents had before I was born, for the GSL Common Kit class.  I better get hopping on that, starting with the ski rack!

That is quite an unusual multi-point icicle on the front wheel. Will you be replicating it, too? :unsure::)

Not sure if it's an exact match, but maybe a start. Fujimi sells a set of 1/24 scale skis, poles, racks (and surfboards). It's Fujimi #112527, Garage & Tool Series #22.  Available from many different vendors, or eBay. (Pic stolen from internet).

Nice. I just built the purple Dodge Charger and it was a nice build. Looking forward to doing the Camaro. I meant Challenger.

mailman delivered an original 1979 General Lee kit today, along with an MPC Mopar 440 I ordered just to get the exhaust manifolds.

Just like Michael of South Carolina. I was really impressed with a very fast delivery today...... I placed an order for a rattle can of cellulose Ford Imperial Maroon paint to build a 1960 Ford Anglia, which was yesterday 3rd January and by midday today, 4th January the paint had been mixed to order and delivered to my home address. This is so fast I cannot understand how the company did that? Sent an email to say thanks for a brilliant service!

Hey Snake! Haven't seen you in a while. I don't go to RF much anymore. Good to see you here!

I have this on the bench. I've got special plans for it. :)

I got these 4 Fords off Ebay . I am curious about the 36 Roadster & Coupe kits.

I know they are from the old AMT 3n1 kit, but I have one that was molded in grey & another in black.

Anyone know the timeline on which came out 1st?
