Roger's handcrafted 1:12 scale models

Pretty nice! -

My AACA magazine for March/April arrived today, and, as always, it is a great issue! The magazine features a story on Ted Brito's 1932 Oldsmobile Series F Six Deluxe Convertible Roadster. Ted wrote a wonderful article about his buying and the restoration on the Olds. This is one beautiful car! The photos by West Peterson really capture the car's grace and style. Congratulations to Ted and Michele on The '32. The awards are well deserved. John

Well, in that case, I did. Thanks TerryB

Does starting it up count?

I had a similar situation with my '49 Studebaker, I wound up rebuilding the fuel pump, clean out the fuel lines, and tank, and she was fine after that.

1956 Dodge Wagon, not mine
John S. replied to Xander Wildeisen's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Nice solids car, with a good looking interior. Never cared for the patina look. That gets old quick. -
I use PayPal without any problems.

Roger, you're even great building cardboard cars! Amazing! -
The benefits of this forum and how it has helped you.
John S. replied to BobinVirginia's topic in General Discussion
What I enjoy about this Forum, is the family that has been created here. This is a comfortable place to stop at any time and catch up on projects, conversation, and information . I love following the restoration post, from beginning to end, and then seeing the finished car, truck, etc. at an AACA National. After following Ted's restoration on his '32 Olds, seeing the car, and finally meeting Ted and Michelle at Hershey, it was like "Old Home Week." I felt like I knew Ted for years. No matter who I am chatting with, Roger Zimmerman, hursst, Steven Pollard, auburnseeker, Ted, etc. I consider all to be a part of a wonderful an extended family. This Forum is the College of Automotive Knowledge. I thank Steve and Peter for all of their hard work in making this Forum the place to be. Thanks. John -
Chris, The MG looks great. I would mock it up with every bolt in place. It may be time consuming, but all of the work that went into the car up to now, I would go the extra route to make sure all the panels are on tight for a perfect fit. All your hard work is paying off. Excellent work.

AMT 1949 Ford
John S. replied to junkyardjeff's topic in Memorabilia, Toys, Art, Signs, Clothing and Printed Material
That is a neat project. I am building an A.M.T. 1949 Mercury with a Flathead with dual carbs. Thanks for the pictures. John -

Roger's handcrafted 1:12 scale models
John S. replied to Roger Zimmermann's topic in Our Cars & Restoration Projects
Roger, what size flat screws do you use, or are they machined to look like they are there? Stellar work Mr. Zimmermann. -
Beautiful work. I would used a different color primer for a guide coat, but everyone uses what works for them . The car is really coming along nicely. I love your work. John

I admire you, and the work that you are doing on the M.G. Block sanding is not my favorite part of body work. The car is coming along nicely. Really excellent work. John
