This cream-colored 1955 Ford F-100 street rod is anything but vanilla. Jake Leatherman built a Monogram 1/24 scale kit, stripped all the chrome parts, and painted them with Alclad II Polished Aluminum. MCW Casino Cream lacquer laid down over the bulk of the bodywork, and Bare-Metal Foil rounded out the look.

The Lima Transmissions (LT for short) Model Car Show returned to Elida, Ohio, for its 21st year. With everything from muscle cars and street rods to military vehicles and dioramas, the LT show made sure there was a little bit for everyone. Here’s a smattering of the eye-candy on display.
