Attended the 21st annual NNL North show today, and I just want to extend a giant "Thank You" to those who attended and saw fit to award my '67 Ford Galaxie XL with one of the Top 10 "Peoples Choice" awards.

I am very humbled.

I also need to give a big thank you to the great guys from the Winnipeg Model Car Club, who gave the Galaxie their coveted "Best Road Car" trophy.

What a huge surprise and a humbling event!

Met a few old friends and made a couple of new ones.

It's always great fun and I look forward to returning again next year.

Over 400 vehicles displayed this year!

What a great turn out!

 

Thanks everyone!!

I'm not surprise. That Galaxie and your four '60 Mopars are all beautiful cars. Great job. It was good to see you and your wife at the show again. It was also fun to finally meet MoparFarmer and a see other old and new friends. A great show, great models, and great guys and gals. I always love the NNL North shows. And I'm always impressed and enjoy see your models in the flesh. Wow!

 Sweeeet! I have one of these as an old built up that I plan on getting to...one of these days. 

[cobraman]

Wasn’t sure where to post this . It’s a 1/160 scale porcelain Cobra Daytona . It’s is tiny . 

[Straightliner59]

I have all kinds of stuff on the way, now! Moebius Dyno Don Comet, I won an auction for a Johan Pinto Funny Car (under $50, shipping included!), carbon gouging rods (for a resistance soldering probe I am going to build), and a right angle mounting base for my Sherline rotary table.

[Modlbldr]

Got some beautifully cast resin parts (wheels and bumpers) from Superbird McMonte. What a great guy!!

Got the new Mobius 66 Ford pickup, looks really nice. I'm thinking about kitbashing it with the Foose 56 to go with the Foose truck I built a while back. Any thoughts(good or bad idea)on that kitbash?

Should work...I'm doing something similar, only with an AMT '63 that has been converted to a short wheelbase (but still a Unibody wide bed).

[john66]

My favorite hot rod, 1/25 Revell metal body '32 Deuce Coupe from American Grafitti. I also have the '55 Chevy

1/25 metal body coming later this week.---John

Very cool and neat idea...

[Hotrod 97]

Got some supplies for the Workbench. Sandpaper, hobby blades, Dremel cut-off wheels, a jewelers saw with extra blades, and some New and Improved Bare-Metal Foil.

I also got some more Mustangs to build.

Thanks Mark, Tom, and Carl for the comments. I'm still kickin' it around. Not sure how far I want to go with it. I'm wondering if I should use the Foose frame/suspension/engine, or try to lower the Mobius suspension a little and adapt it to the Foose engine. I don't think the Foose  rear wheels/tires will fit inside the Mobius fenders, so I might have to try switching boxes, or using front tires on the rear and rear tires on the front. Guess I'll play with it and see what works.

[Tom Geiger]

Rich, it deserves at least a test fit. When I built the Foose pickup, the whole time I was scheming which other bodies would fit over it. What won? I shortened it and stuffed it under a Datsun pickup!
