Ed, is this civilian vehicles only, or are military trucks or cars allowed?

I have both in the stash of couse, but was planning on a gun truck and one of ICM's WW1  Model T kits later in the year.

Got a color scheme picked out Ed?

I've always liked True Blue but I'm not getting a blue to turn out the way I want it.  Dark Shadow Gray is also a possibility since Gravity Colors has Magnetic and Liquid Gray.

Does it have to be a new build, or can it be started?

New builds are always better, but if you have something in the works let's see it.  I only have a few rules to get some people building in here and be no pressure.

Definitely want to build another auto this year. Just about to finish up my MPC 1970 Super Bee and I may want to build a second in close succession before I forget all the things that needs fixed with the kit or that I could improve upon. Also have a Monogram 1/48 71 Plymouth GTX I want to get built.  GTX seems like an easier build though, so I guess just put me down with the Plymouth for now.

Ed-looks interesting.  One question (for now...)-are cross overs allowed?  I've got a couple of Japanese autos that I'm thinking of using for the Japanese GB.

If not, no problem-I have plenty of autos that will fit the bill.

Thanks

Bob

I havnt seen a general auto buld in a while and the GBs are getting a bit thin.  I also have a bunch of cars I need to get started on.

These are the only rules,

  1. Must be a car or truck.
  2. You have till the end of 2024 to complete something.
  3. Can be stock, modified or imaginary.

I'm not sure how much time I'll be able commit to this but I'll try.
