    On my modelling site we ran a contest all year to build the (quote) "World's Most Beautiful Model Roadster" - kinda like the AMBR, but smaller.

    Anyway, we could use some actual hot-rod guys to vote on their faves, ifg anyone's got 5 minutes or so? All the builds are here:
    http://public.fotki.com/theflame/car-stuff/2009-worlds-most-be/

    And you can vote here: http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll/2429256/

    Your support would be awesome guys, hope its cool to put this on the HAMB.

    Happy New Year fellas (and ladies)

    peace

    Yeah, there really are huh? Some of the detailing stuff you can get for these 1:24/1:25 kits is absolutely mindblowing - scale rivets , nuts, bolts - you could almost bolt one together like you would a full size...and thats before you get into the wiring that people do and the plumbing and scuffing the tyres to get the texture right and hunting down that perfect (scale) speed part to finish a build off. I love it man, it's totally a car-guys type of hobby IMO

    Anyway, thanks for voting bud, really appreciate it!

    Really really appreciate it guys, thanks a lot

    Up to today, what with this being a pretty niche hobby, we'd only had 20-odd votes. Didnt seem to do justice to the builders who entered really, given all the hours of polishing and sanding crap that they (we) had to go through. Really really appreciate it guys, ta!!!
