workbench or other distractions, Your models can only be judged based on what I can or cannot see, I would like at least 6 photo's of your model and if you can
at least one photo of the real thing for referance? ie replica build. WIPS and progress photos are not requrierd here, But I want too see a photo of the kit you will

You May Build as many model's and enter as many times as youd like BUt Only One award will be giving Per person for there will be No sweeps meaning One person will not be
able too win more that One best of award!
Now I realize we have some "Heavy Hitters" in this group and that is GREAT ! Please do not let that detour anyone from entering this contest?
A well built Box stock model has just as much of a chance too win as does a fully super detailed build does?
Your builds will be judged on Basic contruction skills, paint quality, scale accuracy, does it look real? engian and chasie details, interior, and if opening doors and trunk are
