I’ve been lurking on the forums for some time and finally decided to jump in. I’m 63 and was an avid modeler through school and through 25 years ago or so when life intervened. Built 72nd aircraft with the occasional 72nd vehicle thrown in and stick and tissue flying pieces. Have a sizable stash of 72nd unbuilts I’ve been continuing to collect in the interum that I now plan to get to. My family and I are into re-enacting and we are the proud owners of a 42 Willys MB and a 42 Ford Sedan we show and take to events to honor my dad who was a P-47 pilot during the war. Looking forward to participating in the many interesting topics on the forum.
I have a friend who has a '41 Willys street rod with a blown 427. Only thing bad is that it is a trailer queen. He doesn’t drive it. I asked him once if I could go for a ride with him some time and he looked at me like I had just stuck a knife in his heart. He also has a '60s era Dodge that is 100% restored. Also a trailer queen.
Welcome to the forum, WillysMB! I look forward to seeing your builds!
Malvern, eh? Have you ever visited the local club, the Delaware Valley Scale Modelers (DVSM)? We meet on the first Friday of every month, at Artisan’s Hall on the Boulevard in Philly. Our club website is http://www.dvsm.org/ If you’ve never been, you should stop up some time!
