Hey All, I'm on a couple of other boards but its always good to expand one's reach. I'm an older builder but just got back into things recently. I'm trying to do more challenging builds than my usual mild customs. Working on a '57 T-bird custom that I ran into a prob with last night (that whole measure twice, cut once thing), have a longer term resin build I'm working on (Cadillac XLR Pro Modish race car), and I have a Pro Street '06 Camaro in the box which will be a combination of kits I parted out.

Welcome poet. Sounds like you got some cool builds going. I have looked at that resin XLR body thinking about getting one. Would love to see your builds. You may be surprised at how many of us here are close to your age. Quite a few of us are just getting back into building again too. This is a fun site and everyone is helpful.

Here are my complete builds. I don't have an update of the Stang because I screwed up the windshield and have to get another one. The Impala was my first one since coming back. I hope this is the right way to post images :-}

Welcome Poet! It has been many moons, but I've spent time in NE Ohio...had an aunt in Mentor, and a cousin in Ashtabula. I lived over near Lorain until I was 9, then the family moved to Colorado.
