1932 Ford Street Rod

I added another car to my model collection and it was built right out-of-the-box. The car was also called a Classic Cruzer by Monogram. The kit had a "T" shirt decal included so I wondered how to use it. After cutting around all [...]

Tamiya 1/6 Harley Davidson FLSTFB Fat Boy Lo

Happy New Year to all. Here is something that flies but on the ground instead of in the air. This kit was absolute fun to build. Typical Tamiya superb quality let down only by the sub standard brake rotors and exhaust mufflers which were [...]

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider 1300

I’ve long been a fan of the 1955 – 1966 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider so when I found the Italeri kit I knew it belonged in my collection. The kit features opening doors and a nicely detailed engine compartment. Parts are supplied to [...]

1:25 Revell 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS 396

I haven’t posted any builds for a while now, and I built this 1965 Impala last summer and am just now getting to posting it. I’m glad I did—because my wife gave me a cool, portable light booth for Christmas, so I figured I’d spend [...]

Monogram 427 cobra sc 1:24 scale

My first of many models to come

FIAT 806 GrandPrix

The story of a nightmare This is the most poor quality model I have assembled in a long time. For me Italieri has done a terrible job with this kit, the plastic is very rigid and it is split by itself, practically all the pieces have [...]

A - 1/24 Scale Mercedes Benz/540 by Italeri.

I just posted my Rolls Royce car model so it's best that I duplicate another fancy model and like the "RR"model, I found some real photos of the "540." I have heard of the name Mercedes Benz company but what does the [...]
