New Kit From Ertl?

[Dave]

I've got to join the masses in saying how much I also enjoy you photos, kits, etc. And to add a personal note, you've been a big influence on my model building as I have a few "Vintage" stock cars on my bench right now, as opposed to the uual batch of todays NASCAR/ SPRINT /NEXTEL /WHOMEVER cars.

Thanks Dave, I really appreciate that. I'd like to see some of those builds. Must be something in the water around here that pulls us in the direction of those larger than life drivers. After all, it is the same water that was spread around to keep the dust down as all this history was written. Sometimes it even worked. LOL

That's right. I usually put the shop, track or whatever base I'm using on the roof of my real car. It gives just about the right perspective for the real trees in the background. Unfrortunatley, most of the trees are fast growing pines and it won't be long until I have to put the bases on the roof of my Ford F-100 and stand on a ladder to get the same shot. That's how my camers came to have a violent meeting with the ground a week or so ago that means I'm in the market for a new camera unexpectedly.

Ow! That sucks!
