Hi, I am Greg Wann, I am 50 years old. I moved here from Indiana in August 2000. I work at Arizona State University at the Tempe campus as a plumber at night. I joined the Cactus Car Model Club in 2005. I built and destroyed quite a few models in the late 60's and mid 70's, it was easy to get bored in the winter living on a small farm! I am not a contest quality builder, but I am learning from the build sessions that some members attend. I build whatever catches my eye. I do prefer convertibles of muscle cars and show cars. I don't care for the donks or the big wheels. I like the original issued kits that I remember seeing, building and destroying. Since joining the club I discovered resin casting. That part of modeling has become quite a learning experience too. Some of the other members do some casting and have been helpful in my learning process, thanks guys. The members in the club are all quite talented with their building ability. They all inspire me to build. I still consider myself a beginner builder. I am also a Moonlight Model Club member.

Hey Greg, Do you think you could make an exception to your dislike of donks if it was say a Buick GSX? Bernie

Hey Greg its ok I dont care for the donks either.....BUT they are 2n1 kits and you can build them stock also...I will be picking up that Buick GN kit and maybe the caddy also. Dale might like all the leftover LIFTED chassis part though!

Speaking of leftover parts, Dave's comment reminded me ...
I could use laptop computers that showed up in some of the AMT/RC2 "Rides" kits and the new Revell Impala kits, if anybody finds themselves with parts they won't use.
And, of course, any Po-lease parts you might not need for your customs or drag cars ...
Thanks in advance.
PS: Greg, I'm with you. I don't need tractor wheels on my cars!
