Rob has been busy! He stopped by with the latest of his builds.

This is an original 1/24 Revell AC Cobra in its original molded purple. Rob chose to leave the car in the original molded color and focus on the small details.

Sounds good Bill on Rob's participation with us in the NWTSR races. We are having some good turnouts and good racing. Have him stop by next Sat. for the 962 race if he can make it.

He likes to run all the cars he builds. He is hoping for some "vintage" car races to be held in the future, something I would also like to see. He has also expressed interest in racing with the True Scale guys. I am currently looking for cars to get him going.

Does Rob race these beauties to give them "honored war stripes"?

This is another restoration project. This Monogram Ford was in poor shape before Rob brought it back!

Although Rob does a lot of restorations, he also completes some new builds. This Porsche was built from a new Revell body kit and placed on an original Revell chassis.

Rob came by today with some of latest builds.

First up is this Strombecker Cheetah he restored. One thing Rob is really good at is getting the bodies lowered on the chassis for a better ride height. I should have wiped the car down before taking these photos. The dust distracts from the great paint job!

Rob does some very nice work. I was never or still a very good modeler, but as a kid everything I built was with the intention of blowing up or sinking beneath the waves of Hartung Pond. There's gotta be a lot of boats full of gravel ballast in that pond. Made me a crack shot though.
