ACME - November 2004 meeting (12 pics)

[willimo]

Beautiful models, all. Just a gorgeous collection there, amazing how much talent is centered around Atlanta (and shipped in from Japan). What's the story on the VW bus, truck, thing whatever?

Matt, bring your Camera to NNL. I think you, Bob, Dennis, Brian, and whoever else brings camera's should make a big thread with all these pics. I for one am going out to buy a new card for my camera, its only capable of 1927 pics. I hope its enough.

I just bought a new digital camera! 4MP with all the bells and whistles.

I have 3 different memory cards, and I plan on filling them all up..

If our meeting yesterday was any indication of the show it's gonna be a great one..

The VW truck was built by ACME's President Henry Trent. It was damaged while display at a hobby shop, and recently rebuilt with resin Ferrari Challenge wheels. It was also slammed to the weeds during the rebuild.

The Porsche on the back of it is 1:82nd?? scale. He jokingly placed it on the back of the bed and called it a go-cart.

The 908 (?) I think was made by LeMans miniatures, and is 1/87th scale. Cute little bugger.

Thanks for the pics!! Nice to see the Miura brigade in formation...

So, what's going on with the international model exchange program? Kunta, have you commissioned your own work as a traveling exhibit?!?

Camera-hounds: don't forget the batteries!

Great turnout and pics. Love the army of Miuras and the orange on your Murcielago looks even more realistic than in it's completed thread. Good luck with your annual show.

In that case, if you want your 355 back...you have to come and get it!
