nice work
Very nice.I'll post some of mine when I get my mini Bird built.I have to send a few parts out for chrome (literally),and find some matching paint to the Sport.
I have one of those TC kits plus a 5.0 Mustang GT kit to make a copy of my T-bird. I need to put the thing together :hick:
Neat, you're really talented.
I have always liked those 280z's.
Very nice work. I used to be huge into building model cars...always wished they would become real so I could drive them. I was in 4-H and did model building every year. Even had one go to the Indiana state fair one year. Thats big deal when you are 12 or 13 yrs old, lol.
I'm diggin' on that Willy's gasser that is a really neat kit. I may have to snap some pics of some of my models and post them up now. lol.
This is too fun of a thread for me to not post some of mine too!! I didn't get my pics to come out near as well (probably should have turned the flash off).
1st is an '87 Buick GN. This is probably the nicest model I ever built. The pearl black paint came out perfect and I took the time to detail everything (note the mirror under the car to show the details!). A GN would be one of my favorite cars of all time.

Here is the 427 Fairlane. I'm glad I painted it yellow I think its neat. I always wanted one of these...

'87 Turbocoupe with 20" wheels. I was not very happy with the paint on this one and decided to try something different with the wheels. I've got a drag car '87 bird project I've been working on and need to get finished up.

Some more (pay no attention to the dust :D ). The S197 Mustang in the box will be my next build. The red '57 Chevy is the 1st model I ever built, with the help of my dad when I was 10.

Here's a '69 Z/28...probably the 2nd nicest I've built.

I'd hate to think of how many models I've built over the years. When I went to college my mom made me toss a bunch...my room was full and she was tired of dusting around them. I even had some vintage models from the '60s I found at a yard sale as well as a few planes.
I was huge into the planes. By the time I started doing the cars, I got a real one. That's a bit more fun (at times). :D
I haven't done a model in a looooong time. Used to be real big into it.
yeah, I hadnt done models in probably 7-8 years or more till last winter when my local forum started a model contest that kinda faded away and never happened. I figured it was time to finally post pictures even if there wasnt any contest since I spent so much money on them. You guys have some neat cars too!
