Good hobby for retired craftsmen

Where the heck have you been hiding? That's some good work. I like that American Graffiti Ford
 
Those are some nice looking models! After 30 years as a mechanic myself, my hands and fingers don't work like they used to. I have a lot of problems with assembling smaller parts.
 
I take my time doing my dishes in warm water, then use Gold Bond lotion for skin care. Seems to work OK. I'm in the SF Bay Area - where are you ?
 
Here's the '68 Camaro I had to convert from a convertible to a hardtop. Also another truck I put together earlier this week !

Hi Pantherman - thanks for the welcome !
My high school mascot was the Panther.
Where are you located ?
I am on the east side of San Francisco Bay.
I wish I could find someone close to me...
Anyone know how I could go about this ?
Just a few that hang out at the ONE local hobby shop at Berkeley Hardware...
Have a good day !
