    My Father built these in the late 50s early 60s. I have been redoing them due to being damaged in a ba*****t flood. IMG_20200227_200308.jpg IMG_20200227_200315.jpg IMG_20200227_200336.jpg IMG_20200227_200403.jpg

    I have many of the Model cars I Built as a Kid. Some didn't survive my moms fastidious Dusting and Cleaning. More on that in a later posting. Thanx! image (2).jpeg image (3).jpeg

    @Speed Gems watch out for the 1995 issues. They look like the older issues but have different dates on each long side of the box.
    One side:

    Still have most of my AMT models from 1958. $1.25 a kit. Hidden in the garage. Kind of fragile after 66 years.

    I guess I need to dig out my stuff from the '60's. A Willys coupe, a '57 Chevy, and and several Corvettes. They've been hiding in the ba*****t a while.
