Re: Scale DSM....
Funny, I remember building detailed models of a Chevy Monza when I was a kid. I ended up getting one in high school and raced every car nerd in school.

Re: Scale DSM....
Sweet. I have this same kit, but didn't go as crazy as you are. I've always enjoyed building model cars and have been building them since I was about 8 or 9.

Re: Scale DSM....
I used to build the shit out of model cars until high school. They all ended up getting broken from moving and what not over the years so I have nothing to show for my work now.
