This is so cool - thanks Paul!
“ note: The Paddy Wagon, CV&T's, Bikes & Trikes contests are no longer available”
I know where there’s still some pics from the Paddy Wagon contest - do you want a link? 🕵🏻♂️

If there's enough. I don't remember any of the three contests. All I remember was saying I would build them and hearing 'no no no.. I got this' three times

The Kandy Koated Kitbash Kontest has been salvaged and is now available. See what we were up to in 2003!

It’s so killer getting to see all these old builds!! Thank you again Paul!
I wish we could get a contest like these together again - or I’d settle for a time machine to go back and have a shot at entering all these now 😂

It is only because of the effort and work behind the scenes by 'kabdriver', that the original 2006 Paddy Wagon Contest is now online and attainable through the Contest Central page

Hey Paul,
AGAIN, not trying to tell you what to do or create anymore work for you, but if you wanted to build pages from scratch for the CV&T's and Bikes & Trikes contests I found my entries for those I could email you. If you don't want to do it just tell me to bugger off and I am OK with that, LOL.
Thanks for resurrecting what you have so far.

Did I ever tell you how much I hated living in Indiana? I spent a decade there one year!

Hoosier Daddy (back home in the land of the Fast Boys from Illinois) Did I ever tell you how much I hated living in Indiana? I spent a decade there one year! I never paid attention to either one, but for some reason I have the feeling they weren't very big, participant wise. I just boilerplated the DC275 contest for the Paddy Wagon one today. Took about 5 hours, not counting my old man nap. So it wouldn't be a lot of work. So if you want to send them to me, I could put the framework together while you go out of your mind trying to remember who else participated. In each. Of course many people have left these halls permanently in the last 14 years, so maybe just combining the two might be an alternative option. C's V's T's Bikes & Trikes? Could work...
Annnnnd…

WOW, I am impressed that you think my memory is that good. I only remember mine for sure, and only because I have kept file folder for my models marked "MODEL CONTESTS". It took me about an hour to find which backup drive I had them on because I get getting sidetracked (squirrel effect), LOL.
I think they were low count entries as well, especially the Bikes and Trikes. As I recall most were some variant of the 4 different MPC Trikes. Can't remember for sure, but there was a pretty cool Tiki Bike either built by Tim Nolan or Mike Turk. I think a combined page would be fine if you even want to bother. Let me know how you want submissions if so.

Never mind

I thought I would post this here. I was digging through some boxes and I found this autographed picture I got from Tom Daniel for my entry in the Fools for TD contest. (I placed in the unfinished class, which is about the best I can do over the last decade.) I also had an e-mail exchange with Tom. It was a real childhood dream come true. The pic got water damaged in a house flood. Figures. What I always wondered when looking at the picture was how big were the pencils Tom was using? Take a look at his arms. Flounder
