Well, I never thought I’d be posting this car. I’ve never cared much for this casting but my wife picked it out for me this week as a challenge. Gotta say, have not had this much fun doing a custom. I love the Japanese license plate decals I got recently.

Showoff Saturday - Classic C210. This was my first attempt at shaving the fender flares back to look a little more like a stock version.

Show-Off Saturday- Last one for the year, hope Santa brings me an airbrush system! Hot Wheels killed it with this casting, I wanted to make a black version as soon as I saw it...with the wheels I remembered. Porsche 944 - (1/64)

Latest custom project. Special thanks to u/MyCustomHotWheels for these decals. This was my first attempt at a race livery. HW mainline RX7 with unknown wheel supplier off EBay. Check out this guy’s website (same name), they are high quality. Color is vibrant, letters are crisp.

You have to check out the first Legion FC game on March 9th. It’s at 6 PM and on a Saturday. The Iron play at 1, shouldn’t conflict. You’ll be proud of our city with how well this team does things. The stadium looks great, tons of stuff for everyone. Food trucks are great food options. Hammer Down!

How about we have an official day to post our customs? I vote for a “Showoff Saturday”, on a suggestion from my wife. This was my 4th ever attempt at a custom and I like how it came out. I’m a fan of plain, everyday cars and got a little nostalgic on this one. Will cross post as well.

If you haven’t checked out a Legion FC game lately, or ever....you owe it to yourself to check them out. Currently, they are the hottest football team in the state of Alabama. All kidding aside, they have posted 6 straight shutouts and are hunting for a playoff spot. We had a walk-off goal tonight!

Anyone else go to the British Food Fest at the botanical gardens today? It was really cool, especially when they arranged for actual London weather to show up. Food was awesome, plenty of entertainment as well. Great job by the hosts Matthew and Bea...they have the Little London Kitchen bus here!

Did you know some auto dealerships have their own 1/64 diecast models? This set is from my local BMW dealership. Link to my review below. $6.50 each through BMW, they are fantastic models.

I never gave this casting much interest until the other day because it always had tampos all over it. Once you knock those off, there are some beautiful lines on this car. Throw in a little detailing on the lamps and it was a quick custom.

Anyone remember the GMC Syclone? I am proud to say these were made in my hometown of Shreveport, LA back in the 90’s. They were monsters....could beat a Ferrari in 0 to 60 times. As one of my best friends puts it, they were “violently American”! LOL I love this casting, just need a GMC Typhoon now.

Folks.....just LOOK at this thing! u/TenOunceCan surprised me with this gift after a custom piece I did and it might just be the most detailed piece in my entire collection. This model is from a company called 7-11 (Taiwan) and is 1/64. It comes semi-unassembled and includes a display stand. Pagani

40 years of my life....crazy to think that our love of die cast cars might be the longest-lasting passion we have. If you are like me, you walked around your house at age 2 with two hands full of cars. I added a proper display in my new office to honor my first love. I’ve got closeups if any want.

Hot Wheels nailed this casting, I really enjoyed making this classic wagon. Greenlight wheels make it so much more vintage and I love what license plates add (even if you have to trim them down for size). https://mycustomhotwheels.com/ for the license plate decals. My favorite custom yet.

I promise we are still looking better, week to week. It’s going to happen.... we could not have been any closer to scoring (several times) than what we did tonight. Hang in there folks, we are a new squad in an established league. If it were easy everyone would do it.

Here are a few recent tampo projects... Matchbox Honda Ridgeline also got a wheelswap. The bottom 2 are from the Hot Wheels Forza Horizon 4 set and my favorite is the Nissan 180sx. The white tampos come off easily and leave a beautiful car.

Longtime lurker, finally tried a few customs. This is my 4th one and I see now how important the right tools are. This one made me really appreciate the artwork you guys create....I’m light years behind y’all but trying.
