Is anyone else out there like me??

I tend to do cars in batches, and even when doing in batches I tend to build basic body of a few cars at a time, then paint them, then decal them and then detail paint them, so I eventually land up with quite a few at different stages of completion.......

This is what I have on my bench at the moment........







what is on yours.....???

Rene: awesome - why your interest in LM 2001?

In my bench (a little down in the list
are 3 Audis to redo in the correct detail....

Howmet - thanks - but in reality it is merely showing my age

come on - share some pics!!
I would love to do a Howmet - if I could get a body.........

Three different pieces of track-to-be there is on my bench right now.
1) An upslope for my own Red Pine Sport, with an open S at the top.
2) A fourlane crossover, to be offered to the community here.
3) Two big and long hump back bridges, also for the community here.

That's about it, as it is.

Ok here goes. I am making a VW bus that will have fender flares and a front spliter and rear wing. It will also have a rear facing camera. It will ride on a fly Lancia Beta chassis witha Slot-it V-12 motor.

I am also converting a old Scalextric Ford RS200 to a Scalextric sport Subaru chassis witha V-12 engine.

I have a Lister Corvette resin body that I want to do in the colors Jim Hall ran before he made his Chaparrals famous. BTW he ran a Lantham supercharged Chevy engine.

I am making a Chaparral 2H running on a Fly Ferrari 512S chassis.

I am also trying to make molds of the 2 and 2D, as well as the 2H. I will also be trying to do a Mclaren M16 Indycar as well as an AAR Eagle of the same vintage.

BTW anyone have a grill for an Eldon Chevy impalla?
