Not mine... That model was build by a friend of mine from the large scale models site that went "belly up" some time ago.....
Remember the 1/25 scale AMT Trophy Series plastic kits? I do! The Traditional Rods And Kustoms In Scale website is asking folks to build and show one. From the link below: "The premise behind this group build is to relive a little bit of your childhood building one of AMT's greats.......the "Trophy Series" kits that were popular (and still are) for the past 60 years while applying the "Keep It Simple Stupid" method and not going way overboard with modifications, extensive kit bashing, aftermarket parts, etc that are prone to stalling so many out on a build." Here's the link, but you must register (free!) and log in to see it: https://trakinscale.proboards.com/thread/20209/trophy-group-build-me-explain I'm "chepp" there. Scroll down on it to see a list of the Trophy Series kits that were made. Maybe you've already got one and are able to do a quick build instead of a long-term highly detailed one.
Here's a mock-up of my AMT Trophy Series '36 Ford. The front will be a little higher to emphasize the taildragger stance and the rear fenders will probably have skirts.
A little more progress on the Road Agent, and my 4 year old son and I built this Red Baron for his collection
A couple more in the works... something to do when it's too damn hot out in the shop and my 4 year old is playing.
Right now I’m building this 49’ merc for a school project. Still working on the hemi, gonna add a custom grille and chop the roof.
This one I got for $8 from a market and finished it. It came with spare custom grille, headlights, back bumper and taillights.
Took some leftover coupe and sedan parts to build a 40 standard coupe,used 95 percent 60s parts to do this quickie build.
