EVERYONE'S INVITED!!!!! ALL MODELING SKILL LEVELS!!!!!

This is for all of us who love painting, remodeling, chopping, hacking, decaling and resin pouring cars to share with others.

VERY BASIC RULES

1. Cars are to be HO scale.

2. Cars need to have a running chassis (not a speed demon, but a complete one that can make a lap around the track :D).

3. Body must be unique, anything from painted/decaled, to custom resin.
NO "straight out of the box" cars.

4.Send $6 for return priority shipping. This can be cash, check, or money order sent with your car. (NO PAYPAL PLEASE)

5. When you send your car, add your hobbytalk name in the box. That will make things much easier for me.

6. This is not a rule set in stone, but I will try to send like for like. EXAMPLE: If you send a tjet, I will try to make sure you get a tjet, tyco for tyco, resin molded for resin molded, etc. Be aware that this CANNOT always be accomplished.

7. Deadline for me to receive cars: JULY 17th Late responders' cars will be kept by me!!!! :lol::jest::freak:

8. Send cars to:
Jerry Gill
101 Maple Drive
Port Townsend, WA 98368

Well, DUH!!! I forgot to say the magic words!! I'm in!!!

ill do it thanks for taking over jerry:thumbsup:

Actualy hojohn,

This X-mas in July is a new half way to Christmas deal-e-o Majober thingy. I belive Ed (Sethndaddy) will still be doing the original Chirstmas exchange as he always has.

Ed is still into ho slot cars as well as now dipping into 1/32 as well. I have traveled this route before in the 1/32 Eldon realm with plastic 1/32 model kit bashes in the past. Wait till Ed sees some of the 1/32 suprised that got mailed out to him today with the other stuff he bought from me...he is gonna flip for the HP in plastic that was going to be for some of my Hot Rod builds. Hopefully he will use them and show them off to us on Hobby Talk.

I even have a 1/32 custom on the table for Ed (not my first to get built table) that should make his head spin. It is gonna be another one of those "geeez this is hard to let go of builds". Sharing is caring...crap is for the toilet. *Flush it down baby* Lay down a good color and go for the Gold everyone! :thumbsup: It doesn't have to be perfect as long as it is from the heart! Mine will be perfect though...LOL :rolleyes:

Am excited to see what you pull out of your hat John and everyone else also. This is like giving a little piece of your soul to a fellow HT slotter & the return reward is awesum...a little car shows up at your place!!

It's the Ed and Jerry show Live via Hobby Talk!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob...I will try my best (that is all any of us can do)...zilla

Win,
Count me in! :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr


Box will head out tomorrow. :eek:

It's my first Christmas....didn't know if it's OK to post any pictures or not. Just got back the rest of my prints yesterday. Want to make sure I have good pics before departure!
Will post some pictures later.
Just need to run it through the "Speed Shop" for final tuning & tweaking & it's off.

Here in the first picture is the Son of a Gun in the Buster's Body Works shop prior to Memorial day weekend.

In the second picture you can see the the crew got to work on the Son of a Gun after the long weekend & stuffed the big block blown V8 in along with a full interior with a pair of seats, roll bar, full dash & steering wheel, and the floor shift in the center console plus the rock screen.

The third picture was taken at Rocky's Race Tires where the Son of a Gun was fitted with 5 knobby tires & appropriate wheels for some serious off roading.
84644
Finally in the fourth picture you can see the Son of a Gun loaded up & heading back to the high performance shop at Dick's Used Cars & Speed Equipment for some final mechanical touches before departing later this week.

I have the same trailor that I bought as a resincast.It is actually too wide for HO.I never tested mine on the track.Did you ? I am thinking of some dremelation & re-engineering to make it narrower.Your thoughts ?

By The way, :thumbsup:Great build on the Toyota p/u !


NeaL:dude:

The trailer was done by Doc's H.O. Cars (Vern Doxtator) before he bought the catering business and stopped casting. It's actually a bit narrow between the fenders for many 1/64th cars. Not sure if I would re-engineer it. Might be easier to build one from scratch with various PlasticStrut material & make what you want. Would be pretty much flat & straight pieces & good gluing tech.
Thanks for the nice words. Building some customs now & then is a nice change from the whole racing scene.

DEADLINE IS LESS THAN A MONTH AWAY !!

JULY 17th is approaching fast ;)

count me in, my package will be on its way tuesday.
