I’ve built models for a long time. I’ve found many things that make life easier and economical. Herewith some handy tips for model building.

Trying to replicate chrome model car details with silver paint is generally very disappointing. Molotow chrome markers solve this perfectly.

Still more model car display techniques that explore larger displays, how to obtain them within budget and then mix model cars into the big picture of life.

The build of the 1/43 Marsh McKee Can-Am kit was extremely satisfying. The 1968 MK10 has been on my 1/43 kit wish list for quite some time.

Get your pre-orders in for the 1/43 scale Marsh Chaparral McLaren M12 kit or handbuilt, as driven by John Surtees at the 1969 Bridgehampton Can-Am.

It was an interesting 2020 Lime Rock Park Historic Festival over the Labor Day weekend. It’s a great event every year at a beautiful track.

The Sebring 12 Hour race is a classic race in the same way as LeMans. Both races have tons of history and both race tracks are quite old.
