Hi everyone, I built 1 1/2 cars this year. The complete one is a Ford Ranchero. The 1/2 car is a die cast ‘Cuda. I need to assemble it, next year.

You did a really good job on that Ranchero Mike! I love your custom paint job! Now that you are retired I am sure you will be building a few more in 2024! All the best to you and Kelley! Joe

That's hard to say as my dioramas have lots of individual kits on the board yet I only count it as 1 build. Rough count 138ish on display. We are small potatoes though when you figure WardWorks and MadDuke have over 1,000 built, ha, ha! Much smaller scale though... 1/72 scale doesn't take up much room!

You're way ahead of my 2023 numbers, Mike! I finished one that I started three years ago! Haha It joined the other 174 finished ones in the display case. The stash has around 800 kits in it. I could probably be persuaded to part with a few if you get to needing anything.

A good looking Ranchero for sure Mike and a very unique, but cool, scheme down the side of it. You got anything under the hood of that puppy or is it a curbside build.
Cuda is off to a good start as well. I think I have that same die cast some where.

I did add 5 1969 Plymouth Barracudas a couple of weeks ago! They will go on the car transport trailer that I need to finish.

Oops, I mean the die-cast section. I am glad I can edit my posts!
