.....That Makes Three Unfinished MCSS's

Three's company - one full size and two 1:24ths...all 1986's!

Sweet!

I just bought an '87 NASCAR Oreocoupe - you'd better believe it is black and silver with a big #3 on the side. Goes with the '86 SS, '87 Aerocoupe, and two GNs that remain opened, started, and untouched for the last decade.

That said, I am in the midst of building an '04 GTO drift car with my oldest daughter.

One day I'll get back to mine.

I have a GNX kit that I plan on doing once my car is more "finished." (Heck, maybe I could just make a tribute to when my car was flat grey out of it.)
I do have an unfinished model from years ago. It's uhh...
>_>
<_<
It's a two-tone metallic teal / gloss black Acura Integra Type-R.
...
with a flat black hood.
........
and I might have made some bad decisions on where to put the gloss black.


All that reminds me of another I never finished. I was making an excellent '96 Viper GTS coupe, until I went too heavy on the body paint and it got a bunch of spider cracks in it. :/

Is an oreocoupe similar to the Oreo Camino?

I'd say it was autocorrect, but what autocorrect in its right mind would think "Oreocoupe" makes more sense than "Aerocoupe?" ha

I use to love building model kits as a kid. My thing was tanks and airplanes from WW 2 and then later cars like the Snake and Mongoose. I guess the side affects of the hundreds of tubes of glue I used over those years (back in the 70’s) to put the models together did not affect me too much? Wait, what is this thread about??? ....oh well....lol

Nope, it was a totally deliberate misspelling. 😀

Will it Hemi???
I'm thinking of swapping a Hemi into the white chassis and doing an early 90's styled budget drag car.
