On a snowy Saturday morning in January the Fox Cities British Car Club hosted club member Andrew Smith and the Winnebago Auto Modelers – who brought us from our 1960s plastic model (and glue) experiences up to present day model making kits / materials / tools / techniques
The Winnebago Auto Modelers are award-winning model makers who get together each month right here in the Fox Cities of northeast Wisconsin – they are car guys who own a bit of big metal and a lot of small models
Most of the modifications (and a few of the entire models) are scratch-built from materials creatively sourced from fabric shops, jewelry counters, and hobby./craft stores
Just like those of us who have unfinished (AKA long-term) British car projects – the Winnebago Auto Modelers have many models in process at any given point in time, with some projects taking ten years to complete
A big thank you to the Modelers for sharing their passion, expertise, and experience with a bunch of British car geeks
