Our local model car club holds an "It's All In The Cards" build-off every year. The idea is that each person draws two cards and they have until the end of the year (or whenever) to build something that meets the criteria of the two cards. For example, a person might draw "Race Car" and "Paintbrush Only", or "1950's and Shiny", or "Snap Kit" and "Spray Paint Only", or whatever. This year, I drew "1950's" and "Rat Rod". The rule is that nobody can show what they're building until the night the challenge closes. This year, I didn't finish in time, so I think it's ok to share. I decided to limit myself to raiding parts from two kits as much as possible. Most of the parts came from either the AMT / Round2 1955 Cameo or from the Revell 1930 Ford Model A Coupe. Some parts (such as the fuel tank) were scrounged from my parts box. Decals are mostly from the Model A kit.
