Very talented model builder. I used to love to build models. But with work and family it had to take a back seat. I love the racing models. I am a racing guy myself. I really appreciate the time and skill it takes to create models that are magazine and award winning worthy. Thank you for sharing Mooneyes.

thanks Guys for all of the comments.

Randy.....You just build life size ones.....

You'll love this I've got a 64 impala that I am going to build like the one in Cheech and Chong up in smoke. I also had build a 64 impala which had hydraulics on it. but I think I sold that way back. I just may have to build another one. Had a bad a$$ 61 impala that I did as a low rider. I'll have to find the pic. I ended up selling it to some girl that wanted it bad. Wish I would of really kept it now.

tkanaz.....I hear you that it had to take a back seat. When I went away to college my model building was practically put on the back burner. And since I've been living in Az I've done a little building but not as much as I'd like too but that will soon be changing. I am finally getting my model room set up in my house....after being in it for almost 3 years now.... I have a big thing for race cars and Pro Streets but I'm starting to get a few import kits

Ray what kits you got laying around??

wow Chris, those all look amazing. I saw the price tag on some of those upgrades you use and thats just insane for $10 just to add mock 5 point harnesses and stuff. I tried doing a model when i was younger of a 54 Ford and it drove me nuts cuz i would paint a part and then when i tried to glue it together the paint would come off and the plastic would start to melt or something from the glue so i gave up on my model car career early.

can't wait to see what this model looks like after i hand it over to you

Thanks again everyone....

Tim your cracking me up....

ok I was able to find a pic of the '61 Impala I did as a lowrider. and Yes it is sitting on Dayton's. sorry the pics are crappy but the friend that took the pics didn't do a good job and since I took a digital pic of the photos well its not the best pic.

The glue on your fingers is nothing, just don't pick your nose.

Especially if you glue them with CA glue..... I've had to take my Xacto knife before to cut my fingers apart....
