As usual:
Comments for the Contest go here to keep the Entry Thread clean and organized.
PLEASE be kind to your fellow showrodders. Negativity is not condoned.
Everyone has worked very hard on their builds... This is a celebration, not a critique. If you choose to make "suggestions" on what YOU might have done, please do your best to present it in an encouraging manner.
This can be a touchy area for some when creativity is involved, so let's keep that in mind, and have some fun!

First off, I want to apologize for my lack of participation.. Between work and traveling I have been home about a week and a half in the last couple of months. It's been a busy summer.... I didn't make much progress on my Jeep.

Great builds guys! I think that I made the ugliest zinger ever...LOL. I just wanted to be part of this Shin-dig. ;D With multiple engines, you know I like it! ;D They are all really cool! The Viper, wow! and the shoebox Ford.. great idea! Ira's truck, the trans Um and the Chevelle are above and beyond... The '57 was my very first Deal wheels, I was a '57 Chevy nut as a kid, and they always make me smile... Great job so far! We'll leave the threads open... finish whatcha got and post it!

Great start on the 49 Ford, Don! I might suggest: Cutting out the wheel wells and lowering the body. Tuck the tires in some more. Racoon tail on the antenia...

I know, and generally I'm against it.... but these are supposed to be about fun, and it is summer time, most of our building tapers off in the warmer months... and this isn't a major one like our TD or Cobweb Classic, IMHO... I'm just hoping to inspire a few guys to get their stuff off the bench.
I know it's nearly impossible for me to finish anything in the summer...

Great job everyone. There are some slick looking models being submitted. Great start on the COE Zinger, Mysterion! Nice wheels! What kind of motor or motors are you planning on using? Thanks. If I had found this truck in time to seriously participate in the DW contest, I would steal a motor and wheel/tires from a DW kit. Seeing as I missed the contest, it's doubtful I'll use a motor other than what came with the truck. I think it looks better with just some big stacks coming off the back of the cab. I tried setting a motor in place behind the cab and it took away from the overall look.
