Hello all,

Well, the hits keep coming. I just received word that the MC Vert I did had a minor issue. Apparently there was some trash in the paint on the passenger side door. This is easily fixable by wet sanding and buffing, but the issue is it got by me some how.

That's not the quality of product I strive for and I should have caught it before sending the car out. That's my fault. So, a public apology to HPLouis and a thank you to him for his patience and understanding.

I will be getting the car back to fix my mistake and make it right.

I not only post this to apologize to HPLouis, but so everyone knows I do make mistakes, but do what I can to make them right because I understand you are paying top dollar for these cars and you deserve top quality products!

Okay, on to more positive things. I have been doing this since May. And in the 7 months I have been doing this I have managed to create 21 cars. Some have gone to members and a the remaining have gone to my collection (15 for customers (7 Verts and 8 coupes) and 6 for me (1 Vert and 5 coupes)).

Therefore, I wanted to send out a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has supported me in this hobby since day one and to everyone who has discovered this thread along the way. It is greatly appreciated!!!

So, I wanted to do a wrap up of all the builds I have done so far. I know 29 pages is kind of a lot to sort through. So, for those who are looking for pictures of my builds, here they are in order of build:

Thank you so much and there's no need for the apologizes. These things happen. The mark of a great business and what they do after things like this and you've been outstanding. You reached out to me after you didn't hear anything and you offered to make things right. Another thing you did was the constant updates throughout the process. These are things that are missing nowadays in the world and you still have them. Thank you.

There is a positive in this too. It gave me the chance to change things around and I found this:https://www.modelcargarage.com/stor.../www.modelcargarage.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp? and you even offered to make the changes for me.

Something else that I caught my eye. The packing for the car really showed you cared. It was packed very well.......very, very well. I was amazed.

Thank you for everything.

^^^ Thanks HP.

Man, that car looks great next to the engine. MC is such an awesome color.

Thank you for your VERY kind words. People on this site never cease to amaze me.

I know you found something, but so did I :D.

I know your project will get to your expectations, but I think this little mishap is going to benefit everyone who wants one of these cars as the saga to strive for excellence continues (thanks to members here pushing me to reach the next level).

Stay tuned............

All those look amazing Glenn, but for some reason the cars that caught my attention are those colors that are less favorable in the Cobra community;
SISNISTR1 Redfire, thewrubelator Silver metalic, and that SY with the big and little set up looks bad ass..

Greta job!

Thanks Will! I appreciate it brother. I think those particular cars (Redfire and Silver Metallic) caught your eye because they are different photos taken by the owners vs my plain checkerboard photos LOL. As far as the SY, I just think you're partial to yellow because of your Roush LOL.

Thanks again for your feedback Will! The support I have received from the members here has been tremendous and the reason I continue to do this and I'm able to provide this service!!!

Okay everyone here is car #22. I got the black 10th Anniversary completed. I didn't paint this one. It's a factory black from Maisto.

The owner of this one pushed me to raise my game again. This is the first car I created with Amber taillights. I think they came out pretty good, but I'll need to improve my process in order to perfect my craft. I'll get there .

What do you guys think?

Looks sweet Glenn.

BTW I might need to talk to you about making a couple of license plate stickers for my model.
