Yes, that is right, this is being included in my 1/72 scale armor/vehicle collection because; despite being a civilian vehicle, it is a 1/72 scale Model A Ford. I only managed to get one semi-decent picture of this, despite numerous efforts for a clean, sharp shot. The base sort of helped get it this good. Here it is, the 1/72 scale Zebrano Ford Model A car:  Built out of the box, it was a delicate little thing; it only measures an inch and a quarter long. Completed in early September it, now joins the collection of vehicles I have in 1/72 scale. Thanks for looking; comments are welcome. |

That looks great. You must have hands as steady as a rock and superman vision!

Thank you guys for the fantastic replies! My hands are pretty steady, but for my eyes; I just remove my glasses and I can see everything quite fine.
I did the base some time ago; it was part of a package of Monroe Purdu resin bases that I'd won in a raffle.
I do have to get better pics of this.

Yeah, I'll admit to being crazy. After all, I have 31 years of married life to prove it! LOL!
Thank you for the awesome compliment!

I'm trying to comment on the build itself, but the number 880 is a lot to take in Mark. Now THAT'S a feat to behold right there!!!
At just over an inch long this is truly amazing to look at. Very well done Mark!!

Thank you Joe Rix! I'm really happy with that one.
Thank you Carlos! I didn't think about that! Cool!
Way to go Lee! Congratulations!
Thank you Silverado Joe! I am thrilled both with the count and with this model. I am so looking forward to getting more done.

It looks great! You are far ahead of me as I have been married for only 26 years. Congrats on your 880th build!
