that looks pretty cool. i got that model ive got a motor that im going to put in it that has a blower but i havent worked on it for a long time i got to get some new paint for it i messesed up and had to strip the paint off. i should have painted the inside all black but i did mine red/black just like my car came out pretty good
 
thats sweet dude :hail2: 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.

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
 
And here is my car as it stands now. Just picked up a set of Turbines (sans caps unfortunately) that I will be cleaning up and installing this spring after it nices up around here.
 
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!
