i have been going to this site for awhile too. i like models cause you can build anything you can think up. it is a little easier to work with plastic sometimes. if it doesn't turn out right just change it again, it's only plastic. i am building a model of my '32 austin bantam drag car right now, but the real ones keep getting in the way. lol
 
I use the sight for insperation !
I would love to build a real life tijuana taxi some day!
I used the ideas from the sight to build this c-cab.

This is a model I built like about 15-17 years ago. I've always said to myself that one day I'll build the real thing. Just wait....

The kit was actually of a Phaeton with 2 or 3 build options. It had a chopped windshield and rear window area as well as the stock height pieces. I went and only used the chopped windshield with the stock rear window. I then closed up the sides to change it into a delivery.
