    Where yat Car Nuts and Customizers,
    New here from Houston.
    Most of my Customizing is scale stuff, the 1/64 scale.
    I must say I'm really digging on the art here.
    Here's a look at what I do.
    I found your board through an Email from friends that run the Annual Houston AutoRama each ThanksGiving.

    It's been a few years since I've disassembled a GTO, 280Z, or MGB but I spend some time nowadays creating Customs from HotWheels or MatchBox 1/64 scale castings.
    A couple of small files and a variable speed handdrill led to another tool and another tool and soon became an entire shop dedicated just to manufacturing scale Customs and large runs of Promotion/Event/Club Cars.

    Here's a few shots of the very first Customs I created.

    Thanks,
    I didn't see this show up for awhile so I wasn't sure if it was okay to post my Customs here.

    InDaShop, I'll check out Jimmie's Ice House one Sunday.
    We have a monthly HotWheels/Diecast Show on the second Saturday of every month at 8787 North Houston Rosslyn, St. Timothy's Methodist Church from 8a.m. to 3p.m.

    There was a huge showing of RatRods and Custom Cars at the AutoRama last week.
    Were any of you there??
