The R/T conversion of the Monogram 1/24 Super Bee kit. This was a fun one. Thanks for checking it out guys. I do appreciate it. 😊

Thank you all, sincerely. I love this bodystyle and already have 3 Super Bee's. So I wanted something a little different.😊

Geno, My cars do not compare. Your work is impeccable. Everything is crisp and clean. Love the interior and the engine bay.

@carsman1958 John, don't kid yourself. I think you do an exceptional job. I love seeing your models. Please keep sharing your builds. And thanks FOR sharing them with us. I love seeing everybody's work. We aren't getting anything from the Mints anymore, so building kits and modifying diecast are a great substitute and a great way to truly add unique models to our collection.💯😊

LOL, thanks Geoff. I spent, I guess, a better part of 6 months on this one. Researching, gathering parts, painting, detailing etc. It was a fun build. Some I've spent close to a year on. Working at my leasure of course. Seems like I'm busier since I retired than when I actually worked. My missus has her honey do list, plus I've been doing remodeling work at MY mom's AND my mother in laws. Whew!!!! I've got 3 in various stages of build at the moment. I'm hoping to get back on them soon.😊

yeh I agree Geno, I sometimes wonder where did I get the time to work! I volunteer at our local cancer hospital, very high profile and highly regarded center where I was successfully treated 13 years ago. Hit the gym (hard!) 3-4 times a week, and I'm studying a Masters degree at a local uni. And I've recently started helping out at our local member of parliaments office. Our MP is one of those actively working in and supporting her local community. And of course car modelling!LOL, thanks Geoff. I spent, I guess, a better part of 6 months on this one.

@geoff-jowett LOL, sounds like you have a full plate as well. Something else we have in common. I'm a cancer survivor as well. I thank the good Lord every day for that second chance and try to reflect that as often as possible. It gave me a whole new perspective on EVERYTHING. I feel better keeping busy versus twiddling my thumbs.💯😊

I think we all do in our own way Geno. I've had the most inspirational experiences communicating with other cancer patients at the hospital. Unbelievable stories amongst them. There is a genuine bond between all of us.

God bless your stamina, determination and, above all else, Congratulations on being cancer-free for 13 years. My wife and I, too, are cancer survivors; 20 years next April for me and 8 years for Shirl. Adreno cortical carcinoma, in my case, breast cancer for her. The volunteers at our Cancer Center at the hospital made all the difference during our surgeries and long treatments - so God Bless you Geoff for doing the same!

@perrone1 God bless you both Tony. Mine was prostate. A blessing it was caught in it's earliest stage. I didn't have to have any chemo or radiation. We are all truly blessed.💯😊
