These are all great builds!!! Everyone of them!
I have to say though - for sheer tenacity to do it all, Clive is just short of probably refining his own petroleum products to make his molds and resins. That is seriously a ground-up build!

Totally agree.
Transferring print dimensions to a block of wood to make a buck for a mold for a body.....that is completely old school craftsmanship without a doubt.
And a beautiful result!

Great photos all, nice work on your group Rob.
Watching guys like Strangebrew is fascinating. He makes most everything himself and the effort pays off.
Prime example. A box filled with cars you just can't buy. All bodies/chassis and most decals all hand made.
Keep it going... :auto-checkeredflag:

Jeff, that's exactly what happened to me! I originally had 30 some-odd, then 55, then I gave up and made that collage with what would fit.
By the way, that Plymouth Savoy is still my favorite.
