a few kits from the case and repainted turn signals and head light enclosures. \u00a0Prelude, ITR, Dart, Coronet, &#8217;66 GTO. \u00a0I also finished a 1\/64 scale diecast bus as a favor. \u00a0Along with the bus, I finished the clear racing hemi project I started a few years earlier.<\/p>\n<p>This was also the year I moved into my new workshop. \u00a0I spent most of my free time converting an old storage room into my man cave.<\/p>\n<p>Finished this year:<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Bus\" href=\"http:\/\/importnut.net\/models\/bus\/\">1\/64 Scale Bus<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Clear Racing Hemi\"

wheels, which turned into painting window trim which turned into chipping an impossible to recreate color, to a full repaint&#8230; It certainly escalated quickly!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1'
