That frame gets me! I just won a 1/43 Starter resin Shelby Daytona coupe for a pretty good price on Ebay. As soon as i find the right paint i will build that one, maybe i will get the balls to start the Gunze Cobra shortly after.

I have a couple 1/43 Daytona coupes one is the red one the other is $5.00 diecast by Yat Ming, it is actually very decent and some really nice Halibrand wheels wth some work it could be very nice.

Yes, I can think of at least two at the moment. I have original, mint, all cherry parts in the box, original AMT annual kits of '66 Barracuda and '66 Mustang coupe/convertible/halftop that I don't envision building. Just looking at and fondling the original, complete 1966 parts gives me a certain amount of pleasure.

Coincidentally, I had some thoughts about this too a couple of days ago. I have my share of modelkits and have kits that I don't want to build, because they are a little less favourite, a lot of work to get the body smooth, needs a lot of work for planned modifying, expensive kits I don't want to ruin and so forth.

I came up with somewhat of a solution that I am not sure yet if it will work out. I going in random. So every time I want to build something new, I let faith decide what.

Figuring that I usually get excited about basically anything, I just have to take the first step.

So in the last few days I wrote all my models into a database, gave them a dedicated number and found that I had a 319 models, oops.

Soon, I will finish the GT and start with the project and hopefully it works.

(I also gave a realistic value to my models for insurance purposes, I ended up with 13,439.35 dollars, more oops. I even dared to show it to my wife haha)
