Any model builders here?
Oh boy.... I was wondering how long before THIS topic popped up.
I've been building models for the past 20 yrs. seriously. I've had cars featured in Scale Auto, Plastic Fanatic, Model Cars, and Custom Rodder back when Rick Hanmore had his column. I've competed in shows from Masscar to Toledo, with NNL east being less than an hour from my house. I've been a member of the Central Pa. Model Car Club when I lived in Lancaster years ago and the LIARS club out here on Long Island. I'm also friends of most of the MAMA's boys from Maryland. I personally have approx. 200 unbuilt kits with some choice Mopar pieces. At last count I have about 8 MPC `68 Barracuda annuals, which are worth a full TTI exhaust system for the real car...
BTW: Dave Burkett in conjunction with AMT just released a limited run of the `66 Hemi Under Glass kit. Grab one while they're availible.
When I get a chance I'll post some pictures of my Chrysler Atlantic convertible, 413 cross-ram `32 Ford, a `64 Dodge with a Weber carbed slant 6, and a Hemi Dart that is better detailed than some real cars.
Sigh.... I wish I had the time to build these days.
