Very nice additions there Jesper, plenty of General Motors goodness! I almost picked up that Camaro kit a week or so back, it's a great looking kit.

This came in the mail yesterday from all the way in the Ukraine.
It is a 1/24 scale replica of wheels of wheels made by MTechnica, a company that I design wheels for. USCP has a pretty large selection of transkits and resin wheels.
Quality on the wheels seem pretty crisp and clean as well.

I haven't seen the '54 Hornet kit around, looks good. Are you going to build it for the '50s Group Build?
Nice pickups.

Nice picks, Richard. I was contemplating the Chrysler 300 muself yesteray... no time. I would love to see a build blog - as I never touched a Moebius.
Cheers!

Great buy's there Richard.
The Moebius ´53 Hudson is a superb kit. Can't see wy the '54 and the Chrysler 300 shouldn't be equally as impressive.

Picked this up!
Best buddy in England had one of these in Red, I will paint this one red for old time sake.
This may well be the start of a collection!

Yes, those resin wheel casts look clean indeed.
I bought the 1/35 Ford F-350 by Meng. I wanted to compare to the 1/24 version.

Richard, nice pick. I have my eyes on it since long. It's the only Mustang I like, actually.
Will be nice to see a build blog.
Cheers!

Thanks, guys. I'm looking forward to doing The General. I just hope I can do it justice.
The '49 Mercury will be a police car similar to Sheriff from "Cars".
But without the "eyes" in the windshield!
