I'm Coming Back

Post by vanhookvintage »

Hi Everybody,

Last weekend I started cleaning up my garage and workbench and plan on starting a new kit very soon. Everything came to a screeching halt when I got a cancer diagnosis, but after surgery, hormone therapy, and radiation treatments, I'm ready to get back at it - other than commenting now and then, I haven't contributed to this forum for almost 2 years.

I plan to start with the Tamiya 1/20 Ferrari F189-Portugese that my son gave me, and I'm also itching to get on with the Tamiya Honda RC166 motorcycle (with photoetch chain, spoked wheels, and fork sets). I'm also anticipating the Tamiya1/24 Toyota TS050 Hybrid that my brother has pre-ordered for my birthday this month! Not to mention finishing the WIP I started a while back of the Tameo 1/43 McLaren MP4-2C. A lot to do! :D :D :D

Cheers,
Greg
