Never built a funny…but I’m sure it’d be a good challenge Cody…great choice!
Funny cars and dragsters are a kick. Hmmmm, maybe I should get me some. [^o)]
Heading to my lhs on Sat morn. Gonna pick up a P-51B and get that started. I will also prowl the aisles for an ‘automotive’ Mustang. It really has to pop for me to get one, something unusual. We’ll see. Also, gonna keep an eye out for something Boeing.
Rob, It won’t be hard. Take a look at this website.
And that is just a sample. The rules will be any Boeing related/partnered company’s i.e. General Dynamics, Bell, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, McDonnell Douglas and the list goes on.
Wayne is even going to build a JGSDF PATRIOT 3. The field is wide open. I suppose one could even build a BMW since they are a partner as well.

2 more days until the start of the build.
Here is a website I found of a P-51 restoration. Some interesting photos.
Loved the "fuel to noise converter’… 2 things in this world you will never forget the sound of once you have heard them…The sound of a 12 ga. pump shotgun being racked and Rolls Royce Merlin at full song.
Warbird lovers candy store there.
Check this vid out.
Do we have a page set up in the GB section yet?
Cody and I will start one up Saturday night.
I’ll take the front page with the rules and roster, Cody is handling the second page with the completed Wall of Fame pics.

Sounds great Steve!
Put me down for a Tamiya 1/32. I’m leaning towards Passion Wagon. Should be fun. John
I have you down John, welcome.
Steve, I’m officially in now:
I’ve done a few of these in the past and it’s a solid, trustworthy build. With my ‘planned’ paint scheme, she’ll be a short build. I should get to this sunday, IF I get that beast of a Hind done!!
Ah yes, “Old Crow” Captain Clarence Emil, “Bud” Anderson flew 116 sorties with the 362nd FS of the 357th Fighter Group, scoring 16.25 victories.
2012 kit. That should be a really nice build. You deserve one my friend. I’ll update the roster.

I had a brief moment of inspiration there…I almost could have crossed over with this one to the Aces GB…BUT…the rule there is u need a pilot and this kit doesn’t have one [:(]…still…I may have a pilot in my spares box…gonna check
Yeah, Ken doesn’t care. Just some generic guy will do. Seated or otherwise.
Nah…not a good enough pilot fig for that build…SO…I’m gonna keep with my original idea…she, unfortunately, won’t be Old Crow…[;)]
Well here she is- Got all the parts for the “K”, but not the decals. The little bags in the last pic are metal prop blades and the metal ends for the wing clip.
Looks like that’s gonna be a sharp build Goldhammer…good choice!
That looks like it’s going to be a really cool build Goldhammer. I am really going to enjoy watching it come together. Miss America is one of my favorite racers. That and Rare Bear.
