Man! So far I've seen you guys chopping and cutting up plastic for this contest. Had to kick it up a notch to TRY and give some competition. I'd been trying to decide what to build. I decided on the 1955 Chevy Nomad kit. I have something in mind so hopefully it turns out well. Not much going on yet. Boring stuff only, removing flash, cleaning it up and a few mock ups to decide what direction to take it.

Can't wait to see what you are going to do with this. I'm having a hard time thinking of what you could do to it, because I think the '55 Nomad is perfect the way it is, but I'm sure you will come up with something.

OK, you got me to keep looking at this, and I will now admit I have come up with ideas, but nothing major like chopping the roof or sectioning.

Dang man all you custom builders make me feel sheepish. Looking great Ice impressed with your custom skills man ! I just wish I had the build area that would allow me to try something. But not giving up I'll try and figure something out. Keep em coming.
