The Worlds Best Model Car Contest! The 2019 GSL Model Car Championship

Perhaps the most competitive scale auto contest in the world is held in Salt Lake City every 2 years. Attracting model car builders from all over the world, many of these autos are scratch built. and many are detailed kits and modified kits.
The contest is produced by the International Model Car Builders’ Museum in Salt Lake City. A unique museum presenting historic auto models and masters and patterns from some of the best know plastic models ever produced.
www.themodelcarmuseum.org/
• The International Mode...
Founder Mark S. Gustavson has announced that they will be ending the GSL in 3 years. There will be one more in 2022. This may or may not end the championship, but will end the championship as we know it. Ending the worlds best model car contest will create a vacuum, and "shift in the force" that may lead to some follow up or redux, who can say. Time will tell......
*******************************************************************
From the web site:
The GSL Championship was started in 1979 to provide an hospitable venue for professional-quality builders, of all ages, to compete where basic and advanced craftsmanship, innovation, and risk-taking are rewarded, respected and celebrated and where the friendly exchange of modeling information, ideas and techniques are encouraged. Additionally, attendees can enjoy and learn from a wide range of seminars, evening discussions , a day of tours of the International Model Car Builders’ Museum, the Museum-benefit Auction, and the Trade Show.
Since the start of this now world-renowned competition, we’ve welcomed thousands of competitors from around the globe, drawing competitors from North and South America, Mexico, and Europe. Widely recognized as the arena for pleasant but stringent competition, GSL also presents three days of instructional seminars, a tour of the International Model Car Museum, a Museum-benefit auction and 4 days of convivial fun.

Great video guys. Thanks so much for sharing your coverage of the GSLMCC 2019 show. You are correct in saying that the last GSLMCC will be held in 2022. It will be sad to see it go but all great things come to an end. Thanks again for sharing your video.

[@ToyManTelevision]

It’s been a fixture for soooo long. I really want to finish my dang 1962 Lotus 22 for it. One last trip into the breach. And the dang model is mostly finished. I want to rebuild the frame in brass because the first one is plastic and keeps breaking. So that and a firewall and cockpit. Debating the tires. They are currently Urethane castings. Like to recast in rubber. But the hard plastic ones look fine. But rubber feels better. If someone touches them. But love to be IN the last GSL.

Just amazing details!! I've been a builder for over 50 years, some of the best I've ever seen. I've built a couple of hundred kits in my life, in 2009 I had over 150 in my collection ranging from big rigs, fire trucks, construction, NASCAR, street custom, dragsters, tow trucks, even was a " PRO " builder for awhile as I built and sold on eBay. I love this video. I hope to see some big rig categories and racing categories in the future. I'm " building " up my newest collection again. Currently have NASCAR, big rigs, and motorcycle kits. 1/25- 1/12 scale builds. Thanks for the video and it's great to see a husband and wife team both passionate about the same hobby. GOD bless both of you.

[@ToyManTelevision]

These are amazing and up from there. Go through the older shows. The USAC car it the best built I’ve ever seen. Including Windgrove cars.

These are past amazing. For years the best of the GSL have been scratch built works of art.

[@robertemmons2260]

I have the AMT Tyrone Malone's Kenworth Super Boss model kit still sitting on the top shelf of my closet waiting to be built. It is a classic kit from the 70's that has been brought back into limited production. Maybe someday I'll start on it.

[@robertemmons2260]

Too late, it's already been opened. :) I have to make a correction, I had stated that this model kit was a limited production, it is not. I had confused the info from another model kit. Please accept my apologies. Below is the info that was found online; After countless requests, the Kats at AMT have dug deep in the tooling vault to uncover the most unique drag truck to ever speed down the quarter mile! Tyrone Malone’s Super Boss Kenworth delighted fans during the 1970s and the truly dedicated ones continue to keep the excitement alive. AMT’s landmark Retro Deluxe™ reissue will feature newly tooled, pad-printed tires, expanded authentic decals and more! KIT FEATURES: • 1/25 Scale, skill 3 • Molded in white • Super-detailed Kenworth drag truck with custom body and spoiler wing • All-new “Bandag” front & rear semi truck tires with padprinted lettering • Authentic expanded decal sheet with 1:1 version options • Bonus mini display box • Vintage Retro Deluxe™ packaging

[@ToyManTelevision]

Hi!!! After the edit I found out the super seven won best of show. And it’s100% scratch. Wasn’t sure. And the orange Harley won best paint and other master awards. Some great models, two more coming soon but those two walked away with it.

[@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS]

Awesomeness and amazingly fantastic love the models that are made to look like the reproduction of the real ones brilliant great video guys

[@ToyManTelevision]

Reproduction class is really hard!! Document the prototype in depth. Then match it exactly. Fun! They do that in model railroading too and in whole railroads. Document a place. Then build a model railroad that exactly matches that area. I saw a reproduction of the golden spike. Both trains. All the tents and telegraph polls and people. Wow!

[@ToyManTelevision]

Hi. Gotta love that Mach 1. 69 Mach has Always been one of me favorites. Karyn too. Although she is a died in the wool impala person. The 428 PI in close to what is in the Blue. But well it’s totally Frankenstein. 427 heads. Radical cam. Holly EFI. Mallory ignition. 428 crank. Oversized pop up pistons. Offenhauser intake. Hooker header. Spin thrust exhaust. 6 miles to the gallon if I press on the long pedal. 14 if if I don’t. Actually took me a month to figure out how to leave from a stop without either killing the engine or spinning the tires.

[@timsacco6g694]

Just incredible!,I used to build car models ,still have some built ones and plenty of unbuilt ones up in the closet from when I was a kid (I'm 54) I wish I had the patience I once had as a younger man to paint all the small details , even if I did it would pale in comparison to the crazy awesome detail on these models!

There is a beat up old slot car center I know of. Dark. Dirty. 50 years old. Same guys racing there for the last 50 years with their 1:32 scale cars. Need to go shot up some video.

Where? I'm close to you. I still have some 60's slot cars that I would love to run sgain.

[@gvet47]

When slot cars hit the scene I took regular plastic model cars and converted them to slot cars. Being larger than the early cars the tracks soon increased to let these run.

[@reddog-ex4dx]

WOW! I have never seen anything like this. I am speechless on the detail. I was shocked when I saw my old Honda Intercepter! It didn't say if it was a 500, 750, or a 1000 but it brought back some great memories. I had a 500 and it was perfectly balanced. Whether cruzin' on the streets or hang'n off on the turns up Angeles Crest Hwy. it was fun. I miss it, but not trying to deal with traffic! Thanks guys!

Thank you for the slow pans & decent editing in this and all of your vids which are very un-MTV-like in that we don't have to be dealing with one-second jump cuts from subject to subject as are so many vids here on YT. Also; you two seem to be smart enough to keep your faces off camera with the exception of the casual introduction and the closing. Most folks here on YT think that they are the most important thing about their presentation and we spend a lot of useless time looking at their faces; as attractive as they might be. Good luck to you both -- and we will see you on the road sometime. Ron & Heather JAGRAF/X.

Great video guys,... Where I'm from you can barely find a model kit store, but seriously... revell only, and not the North Revell ones. I love those vintage USA kits, especially corvettes and pontiacs and so much more... If I want a kit like this, I need to pay a fortune, price + shipping + import fees + customs. It's crazy. Just recently I found an AMT Foxy Vette for $65 but then it became 130 usd with all the fees and shipping. And I will still have to pay for customs.

Gee. Nuts! Friend in Great Britain who has this issue. Things end up costing about 50% over US price
