In 1940 the British army is beaten back by the ferocity of the German war machine, the BEF spend several months in a fighting retreat back to Dunkirk, with cover from the RAF in the Battle of France. This war of the air quickly becomes the Battle of Britain, when the determination and persistence of RAF Fighter Command is tested to the limit as the German Luftwaffe bomb the South East of England.
Herman Georing (2nd from right) makes a fatal error in choosing to bomb cities instead of airfields, allowing the RAF to gain the upper hand.
The war of the Atlantic also begins as German U-boats pose a large threat to Allied shipping and the Merchant Navy (Far right) with 40 vessels lost in January alone.
Hope you like the figures for day 2, thanks for taking a look! :)
The Rockford, Illinois Lincoln car show went really well. Lots of old Lincolns and the Lincoln people are a great bunch to hang out with. My friends had two cars in the show and I rode in the 1961 Continental to the show. It was a kick watching people's reactions as they passed us on the highway.
Anyway, it's good to be back and I'll catch up with everyone as fast as I can.
The 1940 Ford Coupe was the last and best pre-war Ford of its kind, as the 1941 design continued through the war until the end of the 1948 model year.
This one has been customized, with optional spot lights chopped top, fancy bumper, etc. I really like all the old Cadillacs; this one has an exceptionally nice grill.

Wow, it's been awhile everyone! So, life and stuff's been happening and I haven't been devoting as much time to building. I've messed around here and there, though. This is the product of some weekend building: A 1940 Ford Coupe. 6-wide, raked stance, custom wheels, full interior, yadda yadda yadda..... Can't deny Tim Henderson's headlight technique here!
Damn, I wish my regular camera worked. Luckily my girlfriend's phone has a better camera than mine.
