Currently I'm working on a 1983 Buick Nascar kit and two very secret 3D projects
How about all of you?

It's hard to say what I am working on? I have so many irons in the fire right now. Firstly as everyone knows by now I am pretty active with my grandsons. Right now we're pretty active with flag football practices and games. I got roped into coaching too. I haven't been this sore in a long time! LOL! However, we did put some time in on some modeling. We have been practicing with spray painting. At 7 and 9 years old they do have a hard time spraying with rattle cans. Their little hands have a hard time controlling the nozzles on the spray cans. So we are moving to an air brush which should be much easier for them. The 9 year old is working on a Salvino Jr Alex Bowman NASCAR 1/24, the 7 year old is working on a Revell 31 Ford 1/25. On my workbench I still have the following; 1972 Lance/Jorgensen McLaren - Donohue 1986 AMT March - Rahal, 87 Unser Sr., 87 Mears 1987 AMT March - Michael Andretti 1993 Tamiya Lola - Robbie Gordon I hope to get back to the above hopefully sooner than later. I also did have a Jorgensen 70 Colt on the workbench. That has been put away, since Lance has now released his new Colt. I hope to be putting one of those on the workbench soon. In addition to the above, I have a number of 1/72 scale aircraft in different stages of completion. Amongst all of this it's been a pretty rough year for us, but we are holding our own right now. Hopefully things will start looking up soon.
Oh! I almost forgot to mention that I am restoring a Minichamps 1993 Valvoline Lola of Al Unser, Jr. I found it at a consignment shop for $5.00. The decals on the car were fried. I stripped the car of the decals and I'm in the process of re-decaling it with Indycals decals.

I'm building the Silver City 19801 March for my brother Lou. He wants it built as the Blue Poly car driven by Tom Sneva. Having the decals made by Starfighter Hobbies.

I have been struggling to find my next project, will probably take a break till after the first of the year. Well, I'm sure the Colt took a lot out of you to get completed and two issues of it already to boot! I am very happy that you have completed it and usual it's a beauty. You have a number of great projects that are already started and I'm sure witch ever one you pick will be great! 66 Shrike, 70 GC Murphy Eagle, 67 Gerdhardt, 72 Vivitar Eagle, 69 Foyt, 70 Scorpion, just to name a few. Oh! don't forget you also had a really nice 76 to 77 Parnelli you were working on at one time! Well, I see why it's so hard to pick the next project, they're all great!
I think it's good to take some time off, you have a lot to think about! I'm sure you'll come up with something. Take your time no rush.

Are they gols, or what? Am trying to attach a picture of the M16. Hope it comes through. I painted the wheels on my 64 winner gold, toned them back a bit with some silver. I just began working on the 61 winner. John |
