Topic: Any interest in a Lemons model car contest?

We talked about this a while back, and I still think it would be a good idea. Any of you model-builders willing to build Lemons models, provided Lemons HQ gives out some decent prizes

Plenty of kits available for common Lemons cars, and many are cheap on eBay!

I don't have enough time for the real cars, much less model-making. Sorry, I'm out.

Sounds like some fun with the airbrush. 

Models of Lemons veteran cars complete with theme?  Mismatched and crap condition looking?  Or just the plain OEM intended look for the cars that are commonly run?

You can count me in!  I was already panning one building models of our two Lemons cars as well as a few of the other cars that I have enjoyed.

I'm a model car geek,  got 300 in my collection and still growing.

I swear the things are breeding or something.

I have a BRE 240Z model that's been in the box waiting to be built for years.  This contest would be better to do in the winter than the summer though.  I have too much going on to build it right now.

So I'll need a Miata model, a model car with a turbocharger that can be disconnected from the engine, a blowtorch, and lots of different colors of paint... oh!  And lots of time away from re-theming.

I might be able to do a Lemons theme for my R/C car.
