thats sweet dude glad you ditched the bling bling wheels in the first shot. I think those are the wheels that came with the convertible 5.O model the 5.low as they called it horrible what they did to that model.

That is sweet. Real clean man. I like the two-tone paint, good color choices, please post more pics.

Oh and, my Viper wants to race! Be sure to take note of the two tanks of laughing gas in the hatch!

I have tried my hand at models, and decided I like N-scale model trains. I have a 4x3' set that I am making into a coffee table... very very slowly. Here are some pictures of a building I made, and a couple cars that I weathered.

Ok, here is my first attempt after MANY years of not making models. Made it back in August of this year as a way of seeing how some ideas of what I want to do with my car would look. Forgot how much fun it was to make cars so I got back into it...maybe this is an illness? LOL

Great looking models all!

bhuff: my brother used to do trains and he got iinto "N" scale as well, its cool because your layout can cover more stuff than "HO"(for the uninitiated "HO"[say H-O] is a scale designation in model railroading, not speaking of the oldest profession here)

4bangen: I got a 69 L-88 vette I started, I reworked the rear fenders to accomodate a wheel tubs and funny-car slicks. I'll try to post pics of that one later. Great cars, I go to a local annual model car show and hardly anyone else builds great pro-street rides like yours!
