    Meanwhile, a 1/1-scale car show was going on out front! The 328 is mine; the Testarossa is from Stephane of Scaledetails, who was a vendor at the show:

    I'm guessing it's someone's modern interpretation of the red/black Berlinetta Boxers.

    Those are really great photos. The boxer trimmed Enzo & the lime green ENZO GTR are by far my favorite. Thanks for posting them.

    No, unfortunately I didn't get the blue one. I think just about all the Ferraris in the photos were 1/24-1/25.

    Is this an annual show. My parents live in Acworth and I would be interested in attending if I knew when it was.

    Yes, it's an annual show, usually held the Saturday closest to Veterans' Day. Your nearest hobby shop should have flyers ahead of time, or try AAA Hobbies in Marietta.

    There's an even bigger show coming up here next July. The National Convention of the International Plastic Modelers' Society (IPMS) will be held at the Cobb Galleria Centre on July 20-23. This is shaping up as the biggest plastic modeling event ever held in the Western Hemisphere! Cars will just be one of the categories, but they should be well represented. For more details go to http://www.ipmsusa2005.org/index.htm.
