I'm thinking the same thing, buddy. Very labor intensive stuff.

Chris Senyitko

Chris also does custom orders, as he has done for me and I have posted those modifications here. Sometimes, the modifications that he does result in extra materials, bodies, frames, wheels etc. that provide him the opportunity to rebuild something that he sells on Ebay with little expense to him other than time and paint. He also loves what he does so his time does not entirely fit into the equation.

I wish I knew how many hours I've spent building models. ...

... I got into building and collecting model cars because of my love of cars from my childhood back in the 50s. In collecting and building models, the reward has always been hobby with no thought of investment back then. And, it's much cheaper than my later hobby of doing real cars! So now, I look at my collection and think, ok yeah, maybe these beautiful, out of production models ain't too bad of an investment.
