Model car show!

The custom model car hobby goes far beyond simple assembly—it’s a true craft that combines precision, creativity, and a deep appreciation for automotive culture. Advanced builders push the limits of scale modeling with techniques like body modifications, custom fabrication, airbrushed paint schemes, weathering, and realistic detailing down to engine wiring and interior finishes. Wheel swaps, stance adjustments, and scratch-built parts allow each model to capture the character of a full-size custom, whether it’s a period-correct classic, a lowrider with intricate patterns, or a performance-inspired tuner. For dedicated hobbyists, it’s not just about the finished model, but the challenge of perfecting techniques, experimenting with new materials, and continually raising the bar of what can be achieved in miniature form. We’re proud to host the Left Coast Scale Classic, an event that showcases this artistry at the highest level—bringing builders together to display their work, exchange ideas, and celebrate the culture that makes custom model cars such a rewarding and inspiring hobby.

We will be giving 5 awards out for this category!
