Tom Daniel Cherry Bomb

Post by Dragline »

Good Ole Tom Daniel. Without him and Dave Deal [And my Pops] I would not have had much of a start building models.Over the last 40 or so years I think I have built nearly all of their creations at some point. I currently have about 15 in various forms of finished state. Eventually I want to do a section of shelving dedicated to their creations. But for now it will have to be a virtual one. Nothing fancy here but a few extra wires and my idea of what colors go on a turbine engine should it be in a show car. These always scratch an itch for me and they are usually great slump busters.

And he’s back!!! That’s a very cool build project Bob! Personally speaking, those Tom Daniels’ and Deal’s Wheels kit builds always put a smile on my face when I see them. There is just something about the attitude in them of that era. You did a mighty fine job bringing that thru here.

A Blast from the Past! I fondly remember doing the Cherry Bomb kit. I was a huge fan of Tom Daniels Design kits back in my younger years.

Nice job. I did a bunch of Toms kits 20 years or so ago. I went on a binge and built 1/2 dozen or so.
Thanks,
John

It was fun wasn't it? TD has a way of making models even more fun than you thought was possible.

I say build em all. But that would be prohibitively expensive.
