Vintage models and box art.

Recently sold this beauty.

 

Dug from storage. Revell kit, Monogram Corvette motor, 4 speed, & wheels. The seat is first issue Revell '56 Ford PU

 

Pic of a few of mine I took last night. All pre 1963 builds. All but the more vivid blue one are original paint. And aside from the engine on the gold one they're mostly all original parts....and all replacement parts are original pre 1964 parts.
Ones on the bottom row in the box underneath despite being original kits are all new builds aside from the yellow Vicky. Aside from a repaint the original color and replacing the missing front wheels(again with original 1964 release wheels) it is all original down to the fuzzy seats lol

 

Diving back into my vintage collection. This one jillied my jollies. Missed out on it on eBay. A month later the guy that won it sent it to me....free of charge. Literally one of the coolest things someone has done. Basically he thought of it as just another piece of vintage styrene when I actually specifically dug the car. 1959 release AMT 32 Ford roadster. All original aside from windshield and a few glue touchups. Original decals intake from install back in the sixties are something that really gets my attention. Especially when as cool as these

 

Another mostly original 59 release AMT 32 Ford roadster. Engine was missing as were wheels. Had to reattach the windshield but it was original to the build. This one came close to a repaint. Dragon decal is the only thing that stopped me. Have yet to figure out what kit it's from

 

All three are first run original 1962 release AMT 34 Ford pickups ... though all new builds. Red one was unassembled in box that I did bare plastic for the stock version. Other two were box art builds I did for hot rod and two truck versions on basket case builds.

 

Yellow Vicky is the only original build. All are original kits. Blue roadster is a type of build where I find bodies with original paint and flesh out the rest of the car. This one has the original interior too. Decals are newly applied

 

Blue and red t is another original kit that was also a scavenger vintage paint build. Had only the bare shell. But I managed to come up with a vintage red and engine that was a funny mix of engine parts from an original AMT 36 Ford coupe. Had Pontiac heads on the flathead block lol. Stickered up black t was put together with two different partial survivor ts. Body and interior was all that I got to begin with. Traded for complete engine and chassis from another
