I've been knowing JR ( modelcarjr )now for a LONG time from back in the Scale Auto Magazine Forum days and this fella has always had a knack for turning out these gorgeous auto builds of his. When he starts any new build, you can count on a completed auto adorned with an immaculate paint job, flawless Bare Metal Foil work and great details. That AND it has an inline 6 in it!! What has struck me with wonder as long as I've known him is how quickly JR finishes up with these beauties of his and make them look as well as they do. Hat's off to you John on a job well done with this truck and we're most certainly glad that you are here on this forum with us buddy.

Thanks, All! And a special thanks to Joe for inviting me to the forum and putting up with my poor photography! Everyone here certainly makes me feel welcome and I really like all the builds I have seen on this forum. I told my wife, when I was working, that when I retired I was going to spend as much time as possible building model cars. And that is why I build so quickly. I spend a lot of time at it and I enjoy it! Thanks everyone for all the kind comments. Model on!

Keep on rockin' with these great builds of yours John.........you knock every one of 'em out of the park.
