Kyle, I would jump in, but I believe the only one I have is already entered in the big scale. I have a 1/8 Grip John Player Lotus kit from the 70’s to get started on once my demon is done.

Oh man. That Monogram type 35 is one of Monograms best efforts. It holds up today. I Cannot WAIT to see you tackle this auto Union Gary. With a year at your disposal you can take your time and I have no doubt you can tackle it. Pinto’s models are not easy but I’ve seen your work and I know you’re going to be just fine. Hey, Kyle, thanks so much for that vote of confidence! đŸ¥ƒ I do hope I can live up to it. I found a build of the 1937 Vanderbilt Cup version of the Pinto Type C on another car model forum from back in 2020. There were quite a few differences than the '36 version I have but it was an amazing build with a lot of scratchwork and improvements, even opening all the many louvers on the car. đŸ˜³ It's going to be a valuable resource, I believe.
I believe I've IDed all the resin parts and it does look "doable" to me. Look for an article soon from me with pics of the parts and some questions about working with resin. I've even toyed with the idea of building that old Monogram Bugatti 35 (bought a vintage kit on Ebay several years back!) concurrently with the Auto Union. But, that's prolly a "bridge too far".

So can one of you guys move my Brabham build to this group build? I have a few other kits in my stash that may make it, just depends on the time frame of this.

Excellent! GB doesn't start until next month but I'm sure one of the admins can accommodate.

I was thinking the same thing. Can you move my Matra? It's kind of stalled waiting for more out of stock paint and decals anyway?

This is going to be a long term build. 1 year. July 1 (after the current automotive group build wraps) to July of next year. Plenty of time for more builds!!

A year to build? McLaren MP 4/7 Tamiya 1/20, Renault RE 20 Turbo 1/12 or Williams Renault FW14b 1/12, with all accessories. That is the question here.

But I would much rather build this McLaughlin Pennzoil machine instead of the faded paint job of the Newgarden car. I had heard they were tossing in a set of carbon fiber decals. That is awesome!!

We want everyone to have plenty of time and not worry about being busy with ongoing projects so we decided a year sounded good. Any of those will be awesome. I can't wait to see what you choose.
