What I built a 100 years ago.

I remember most of these models from years ago on this forum. All killer models in their own way! Love that ‘55 Convertible with Corvette windshield and interior integrated, especially with the quad seats.

 I also remember that a few other members here really had it out for you and really thought the way you ended up being treated by them just sucked.

Well @Dennis Lacy, that was a lifetime ago, and I'm not one for holding grudges against anyone. Let bygones be bygones, and move on to keep enjoying life, and being here now ?.

Nice story at the beginning, I personally think on the whole that the world is a better place, I'm glad this site is too. 

Your build are amazing, would be a shame for us if you didn't share them! 

I'm glad the haters didn't win... 

Thank you Atin @Funkychiken

It is nice to be back, and you other builders are truly amazing with such beautiful workmanship from so many.

Nice to be in such great company again on such a great forum ?.

Jaw dropping work! Thanks for showing them again. The Auburn is one vehicle that I always loved in particular. Any in-process pix available?

@misterNNL

I was just going through those today, so I can post some in the next few days for you .?

I have hundreds of pictures because it took me 7 years to build it, so I'll pick out a few for you.

I had to build my way in to enough skills to finish it, beginning in 1998 ?.

How can anyone badmouth workmanship like this. I would call this professional model building. I am also from the 50s and these are some of my kind of cars, but all of them are quality work ad deserve respect. Great stuff.

Nice to have you back David.  Your building skills are amazing.  I could be wrong but I believe you kitbashed (and then some!) a Firebird and a Koenig Testarossa Ferrari (I believe it was in 1/16th scale) back in the 90s that was always one of my favorite builds.  I apologize if I have that wrong.  In any case your custom work inspires me and happy building .- Mark

How did I miss this thread!  Absolutely stunning work David. Every last one of them is a jaw dropper. How long ago were these built?  They still look like fresh builds. 

I’ve been on here for about 10 years, and never seen any haters. It’s sad to know there was a time when anyone could hate on someone else’s work.
