Genegenie Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Hi Guys - I've been building Rods and Customs since the fifties - when '57 Chevvies were brand new ! It started with a 1/32nd Scale Revell Mercury Montclair (still one of my favourite cars), then the Chrysler New Yorker, Mk1 Lincoln Continental and Buick Riviera (echo's of Broderick Crawford and 'Highway Patrol'). I have since built hundreds of AMT, Johan, MPC, Monogram and various others between building 1.1 scale cars. Edited August 21, 2013 by Genegenie
PappyD340 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 WELCOME to the forum Eugene, got some NICE looking builds there, Glad to have you!!
crazyjim Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Welcome Eugene. Some good looking builds you have there.
Genegenie Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 Hello Guys ! I have at least 50 started models, which I'll have a go at finishing this winter. Is that a Plymouth Duster there - PappyD ? I used to have a '74 - for real, red too - but back in the 80's I'm looking forward to the MPC Dodge Demon due out soon to reproduce a replica of mine. (well, it did have the same bodyshell).
PappyD340 Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 Yes it is Eugene, not mine, but I did own a 72 340 it was white with black interior!
DumpyDan Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 Welcome Eugene, I have a daughter in the UK, where about are you in the UK? I plan on going over to the UK next year. Got some nice looking builds, and I can relate I have about that many on the go now.
Genegenie Posted August 23, 2013 Author Posted August 23, 2013 Hi there Dan. I live on the sunny borders of North Yorkshire and County Durham. We don't tell the Londoners about our beautiful countryside - because they'd be up here buying up all the property !!! PappyD - still wish I had my Duster - but sold it to a chap who I thought was as passionate about it as me - but just pulled the 340 motor for his stock car. ?? My other US cars were a '79 Camaro and '69 Mustang Fastback.
