Tim Hofstetter
There's a sweetie. I do love me some old-model pickups. 😎

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks Tim Hofstetter. I have built at least 9 vehicles from 1929. My mom was born 7/16/29 and I tried to picture what life was like when she was born. I find the older cars give us a special insight into the past.

Tim Hofstetter
That's right around the same time mine was born. I'm trying to find a model of a milk truck from that era; one served as her school bus. 😎

István Szücs
Great work so far!

Curtis Caden autor
While not generally a Ford fan, I did really like this model. It still looks good 8 years after I built it, too. Thank you Tim Hofstetter, Rui S, Bob Hall, Dave, Neuling and Istvan Szucs.

Robert Podkoński
Good job, Curtis!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Robert Podkonski.

Mark K
Nicely done!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Mark K. I found the model very detailed with many small parts. Some of my alignment was a bit off but I felt a sense of relief when the model was completed. It was a somewhat unusual model that our IPMS chapter president was selling and I thought it was worth a go.

Ho Ko
Nice project,
I found the kit at an antique fair. Thinking about building it.
Did you have any problems building it?

Curtis Caden autor
Ho Ko working with metal kits always brings their own issues. Hubley and JLE Scale Models have a lot of flash and I found a small 3" metal nail file worked really well cleaning the parts up and then I soaked them in vinegar which helps the primer bond to the metal. I was encouraged by a model railroad friend to build these cars and I had a lot of fun doing them.

Ho Ko
Hi Curtis,
Thank you for your answer and for the tips
I hope to find the time in the next few weeks and make the first building steps.

Bozzer
I love these old AC Mack's. There's some history in the story behind them. That chain drive looks menacing in real life though!

Neuling
Very nice!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Bozzer and Neuling.

Bozzer
That's amazing, mate!

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks Bozzer. It is for a club monthly contest coming up on Villains. Elsewhere you will find my Joker Goon car. Harley Quinn (Dr. Harleen Frances Quinzel, PhD) a former psychologist who fell in love with the Joker during her internship at Gotham City's Arkham Asylum. She has transformed into the Joker's villainous accomplice Harley Quinn. Her relationship with the Joker is known for its abusive and codependent nature. Harley Quinn possesses multiple superhuman abilities, having won a gymnastics scholarship at Gotham City's Gotham State University. Harley Quinn is skilled in using various weapons, often employing weaponized clown-themed gag items, including pop guns, rubber chickens, and a gun that shoots a boxing glove, as well as oversized pistols and mallets, the latter being her signature weapon.

Rui S
Beautiful work 👍

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Rui S. Perhaps not as interesting as the Polar Lights Coca-Cola or Herbie but it is for a contest of Villain vehicles.

The 1957 Ford Fairlane has appeared in several movies, including Thunder Road, Die Another Day, and The Adventures of Ford Fairlane.

Not quite the same thing as it is electric and not magnetic levitation but similar in concept - "1967 AMC Amitron EV Concept Missing for Decades Found in a Barn" autoevolution.com/ne..n-a-barn-245536.html

Spanjaard
interesting story!

Geert
That first picture… Great shot!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Rudy R, Bob Hall, Ekki and Geert.

Dave
That is nice F-84.

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Rudy R and Dave. For a Monogram kit it turned out pretty well.

István Szücs
Such a great looking Bel Air!

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks you István Szücs.

István Szücs
Nice Mustang in great color!

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks you István Szücs.

Ben M
Nice nostalgia built. Engraved in markings and everything.

Curtis Caden autor
Ben M thank you. The Atlantis models have been fun to build, simple and inexpensive. My only complaint is the scale sizes. I built according to directions which advised to not paint the outer skin of the aircraft and I do find it has a pleasing appearance.

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Rui S and Martin Oostrom. Y'all need to check out my '55 Chevy Bel Air Street Rod. Building the AMT was quite a bit different compared to the Revell. The '55 is a good looking car and I am glad to see people interested in these models.

Bill Newcomer
I have that kit. I like the red and white color combo. I think there was red/white 55 Chevy in one of the Back to the Future movies.

Kyle DeHart
Another great build!!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Kyle. Thanks to some fellow scalemates I painted the canopy and rephotographed it with a background that shows off the brown propeller.

Kyle DeHart
I like it a lot!

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks Kyle DeHart. Denis Dogadov and 5 others had commented previously and it felt good to take some advice and make the model and the photography a bit better.

Gundamn0080
Really nice looking model!!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Robert Podkonski, Mr. D and Gundamn0080.

Spanjaard
beautiful p-51

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Spanjaard. I liked the distinctive blue nose which is painted Tamiya AS-8 Navy Blue.

Spanjaard
I think I used X-4 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Beautiful indeed 🙂

Spanjaard
very nice

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Spanjaard. As one of my model buddies would say "It's a clean build".

Moreno Baruffini
I totally agree, and, as I'am Italian, I like a lot "Alitalia"

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Moreno Baruffini. You put a smile on my face.

Spanjaard
very nice. great finish

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks Spanjaard. A great song by Alan Jackson is Mercury Blues. Youtube Video

Spanjaard
very nice

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Spanjaard. I did like the ESCI kit and I liked that one could choose the cargo door like the C-47 or use a standard door like a DC-3.

Spanjaard
gorgeous lambo!

Curtis Caden autor
Thank you Spanjaard. Maybe I need to put on my bucket list to take a drive in a Lamborghini at a race track near me?

Mike Thomas
Great job, Curtis! Love those old NASCAR kits. Finished the Tide Monte Carlo a few months back.

Curtis Caden autor
Thanks Mike. I'm just going through a sort of purple phase right now. My next two car builds however will be maroon!
