Shown are all of the 2015 Honda cars that I have built this year. Part of the cars are 3D printed (Special thanks to Mike Peters for designing these cars and getting them printed for me. A lot of work went into these cars and I learned something on each model. Overall I reworked the steering wheels, Added seat belts and weight jackers. On the later cars I built the seats from scratch. Had to scratch build a lot of the suspension on the 3D cars or modify pieces that I already had.  <img style="max-width:100%;" alt="" src="http:// View post on imgur.com <script async src="//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>">   Added fuel intakes and added exhaust to all of them. |

wow dude, awesome! do we need to try a Chevy 1:64? Maybe. I understand that Greenlight will make Montoya's Indy winner in 1:64 scale. But when?  On second thought yes, lets go for it!!!!! |

I'm trying to think of something profound to say about that collection, but I'm dumbfounded!
All I can say is Wow! That's a neat collection!

Man that's crazy! Nice little factory you have. I don't know how you're able to make those tiny cars.

My theory is less surface area and good late-night programming on the radio (TV)...

Really nice collection!
I'm going to have to retire too, so I can keep up - I still haven't finished the 2014 field.
