Jim, I love your models! Those junk yard type car models intrigue me a lot. There is a lot of craft and talent in making them look like that and you sure did a great job on it. If you look on ebay there will be ones for sale on there. I have a few 40 Ford models and could you imagine they aren't finished?
I bought a 392 and blower for one of the sedan kits I have. I used to have several models that I built. My absolute favorite ones were the 66 AC Cobra and 63 split window corvette. I think they were 1/8 scale as they were old kits when I got them as a kid. Too bad my brothers bombed them down our stairs and they were trashed. I also have a 68 corvette I cut up and used a pro street chevelle to donate the rear end and wheels and tires. I had it in primer and it was resembling my old vette when I was building it. At that time I had been traveling for work and had extra time to do them. Now that my garage is heated I rarely take any time to bust out the models. My sons are wanting to do some so hopefully this winter I'll just take the time to do some with them. Your collection and display is awesome!
