While I am mainly an armor builder and sometime sci-fi builder, I do build the occasional car. I just finished the 1/32 Airfix VW Beetle and am working on the Tamiya Ferrari formula one race car. Rob Gronovius Modern US armor at

Hi Steve,

I build mainly scale auto, also dabble in armour and other stuff.

Cheers

Your list is exactly what I build.

Cars, tried trucks but no interest.

Military softskins occasonally when get bogged down on the latest unfinished aircraft project.

The occasional car, truck, ship for a clent.

love to build a honda 305 superhawk but the kits are overpriced.

1/12th F1 here and the a 1/35th Scammell Transporter. AVF and a Sub, otherwise mainly aircraft. I do have a couple of un-opened car kits by Tamiya, the Toyota Celica (Carlos Saines, Spelling????) and A Impreza.

Well, I have only one kit, but I guess that still qualifies ...

It's the Monogram 1/24 1934 Duesenberg Model SJ Torpedo Phaeton.

Just had to have it ...

I do cars as well as A/C and armor. Mostly rods and muscle cars.

Bill

Mostly armor, but I've built a few NASCAR, fire apparatus and pickups/cars for buddies, and working on a few motorcycles for myself.

Cars,trucks,motorcycles? You mean there are models of such things?

I've built a car and a truck (technically a softskin military, but by no means a combatant) in the last two years, which represents about 20% of my total number of models completed over that period. Never mind that those are the only two automotive models I've built in the last twenty years. It's present trends that count, right?

I cants live without the amour!

The Keeper (of too much crap!)

I've been known to purchase and occasionally build the odd-heavy commercial vehicle and/or a commercial-conversion of a pickup truck... Some cars as well - I'm still learning the polishing thing.
