YBlock292 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Hi, my name is Ludwig. I am 57 years old and I have been building plastic model kits of American cars for a couple of years. Since I live in a town which hosts an installation of the US Army, I was always fascinated by the powerful American Cars, their size, the looks, everything was so cool with those cars. Because I could not afford to own a real American car in the 1970s, I started building model cars. Now I own a 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 (already since 15 years) and a 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0. V8 rules! Ludwig

Tom Geiger Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Welcome Ludwig, where in Germany do you live? I lived on the Pirmasens US Army Post from 1969-1972. My father was in the army. Did they have drag races on the air strip near you? I have photos from the ones we had in Pirmasens.
bismarck Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Welcome Ludwig!! I was stationed in Schweinfurt with 3rd Inf. Division. Lived in your wonderful country for two and a half years. Not a day goes by that I don't think about it. Hated to leave. Absolutely charming country. Edited January 24, 2015 by bismarck
Lucas van H Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Hi Ludwig, welcome aboard! You mentioned you live near a base, any chance that base is Teveren? If so, you're about 10 miles east of me. Lucas.
