Enjoy yall!

While at Walmart today, one SUV caught my eye... 2018 Dodge Durango Police by Matchbox Moving Parts. I thought, hmm... I have two figures that would go great with that... but after a few seconds of consideration, decided it wasn't worth it because how often would I find a situation to actually use the SUV with figures? Not enough to justify the cost. So the Police SUV stayed on it's peg. Ran a couple more chore stops and went home. While sitting at my desk, thinking of things to shoot, I thought, "Hey, what if I already have a police car with opening doors?" And the answer was, as you might've guessed already, yes! And it had the same livery as the SUV I passed on; mainly black with white hood. Texas state outline with "Texas Department Public Safety." And beneath that "Texas Highway Patrol." Now I kinda wish I had gotten the Durango to go with this Crown Victoria. Hmm... Anyyyway... Here's the shot I was thinking of... 2 & 3.

This meet came about after seeing another club member's post of a Tarmac Works car. Kinda surprised to find out I "only" have ten of them. I love each one of them. Not a dud among them. Any questions, fire away!

Finnish duo, Markku Alen with co-driver Ilkka Kivimäki, raced for over two decades (1973–1993). Ilkka was in the co-driver's seat for all 19 of Alén's World Rally Championship (WRC) victories and his 1978 FIA Cup for Drivers title. Therefore, taking their Fiat 131 Abarth along for a trail in the Finnish countryside felt apt. Since it is a Hobby64 casting from TarmacWorks, it gets special attention to the interiors in addition to the race-accurate exterior. I just KNOW that this would look good next to the Alitalia Stratos by MiniGT back home...

Some recent pick ups.

Need to figure out how to take and adjust the photos
