Hi, everyone. I'm Eric. A few of you may recognize me from other forums. I'm from the lovely and beautiful city of Charleston, SC and now live in the equally beautiful area around Myrtle Beach. I've been a builder since I was 8yrs old, and got my start with aircraft as my dad is a former helicopter pilot. I got into cars in high school and have been building car models since early college. My goal is to get one of every example of muscle car in my collection, plus a few other notable cars. Outside of the hobby I'm a gamer, artist, and fire-arms collector. I love spending my time outdoors and going to car shows. I've been lucky enough to have a couple of muscle cars in my personal life. My 72 Chevelle was a project car. Unfortunately, shortly after buying it I lost my job and had to live off my savings. I was forced to sell it at a loss after a few years. I just paid off my 2015 Challenger and it is one of the two best cars I have ever owned; I absolutely love it! I've been cruising the site since this morning and there's a lot of great stuff on here. I can't wait to show off some of my builds.

Eric, I'm glad you made it over bud and thank you for responding to the invitation. There is a wealth of good talent and a great atmosphere among the members here. Pull up a chair, grab a kit and let's build something together! BTW....I never knew you had a 1:1 Chevelle at one point. Sorry you had to sell it off as those are cool cars. Life just aint fair sometimes but it looks like you've got yourself a good cruiser now.

Very nice cars,welcome aboard,we live north of Asheville and sometimes visit friends in Summerville,and enjoy Charleston,any good model shops around you? There's one in Myrtle called Ed's. It's just off main St near where the Pavillion used to be. Sadly, no good ones in Charleston that I've found.
