2022 S.A.B.A. NW show

Bill Newcomer
Went to my 1st model show in 3 years. Had a great time. Showed my workshop diorama, both of my Freightliners and my racecar hauler. In addition I brought my most recently completed Chevelles and Mustangs.

Out of 10 entries, 4 of them placed in class. I was surprised my 1969 Boss 429 earned 1st in the heavily contested Stock class.

I used my diorama to display my 70 Grand Prix getting an oil change, the 74 Hurst/Olds getting new wheels and tires and my 70 El Camino Pro Street as a long term project. I should have brought the ceiling lights as it was pretty dark at the diorama table.

I bought 2 kits for $17 for the pair. I purchased $40 worth of raffle tickets and won 12 more kits before giving the rest of my tickets away to a couple of kids.

I even got to stretch the legs of my Grand Prix for the 1 hour trip each way.

I was bummed that I forgot to bring my phone to take pis though. Overall it was great to talk to and see the work of fellow modelers.

Jv, The 68 Charger is one of the best looking cars ever made. I love the recessed front grille. The one I just picked up is the 3rd one in my stash. Though I have yet to build ONE. Thank you on the comment for my Boss 429. It turned out pretty well. I am very pleased with it being it was a kitbash.
