With more than a few weeks of rather cold and uncomfortable weather ahead of us, not to mention the holidays, I have decided to built at least one of these models. I will document the progress here @ColdTrackDays and will post pictures of the build on our Facebook Fan Page as well as our Flickr Photostream.

Let me know which model you think I should build in the comment section below.
