I was thinking after this nasty year it might be fun to have a 6 month build of anything on wheels to roll out of 2020 and into 2021 here at OSM... Start time would be Jan 1st to June 31st so you would have plenty of time... this would leave it open to cars, bikes, planes, armor wheeled vehicles, trains, in fact if it has wheels it qualifies even rollerskates and skateboards!!! Do I have any takers who would like to join me? I have a number of cars that are calling my name to get back to them... and Jim has been poking at me to do some more too, ha, ha!!! The only criteria is you have to start with a new kit or new materials if you aren't using a kit, nothing started before Jan 1st... on the 1st you have to post what you are going to build in the thread I will set up for this group build and when completed they will go into a finished group build gallery!!! Come on, who's in with me??? Lets blow this old year out of here!!!

Yes Joe, I saw it. Same story though. My plate is full. Maybe if I get caught up and people stop reminding me of projects, which need to be finished. (Wink, wink, prod, prod.)

Decisions, decisions... I have two Tom Daniels Paddy Wagons, I could do one as is and convert the second one to a US Postal Service hotrod for my bride... or I could go classic muscle car, sports car, pickup trucks, a 1910 British bus or even a tv or movie car like Maxwell Smart's Sunbeam Tiger, Smokey and the Bandit Firebird, the Monkeemobile, original Batmobile or Beverly Hillbillies truck or Franco's Daytona Spider from Gumball Rally! Could do another comic build as I have the Glitter Bug dune buggy also! Also have a classic Duesenberg and a Bugatti T.50... what do you guys think?

Hey Joe,
Its gonna take you six months just to decide on that list. I think you should do them all. LOL
So you better hurry up and get that desert Dio of Brits done first.
We all want to see that.
See, this is why you never ask....."what do you guys think" LOL someone just might tell you.

Just cause I ask it doesn't mean I will go with your choice although I am leaning towards the truck slightly...

Nice try Ski... has to be an unstarted kit... so you have to pull out a new kit and get rolling... I know you have kits on your shelf from when I was there that will qualify with wheels... ha, ha, ha!!!
