I love it.It's not your usual body style for a model kit.That's what I find appealing.

It's a really great kit, I just did it in the scheme it came with, I think it's New York not sure.  Mine was the Hobby Heaven re-release and not the original though.

Don't be ashamed of those cars.  They look great to me.  In fact I see a couple I have built in your line up.  The jeep turned out great and so did your 32 highboy!

 

Great job to everyone.  Hopefully more will post their cars and trucks.

Hey there. Hope y'all don't mind me dropping a few photos in too. I'm a little ashamed to show these after seeing some of the great builds that have already been posted.

Also I love the army car.  That is really cool to the gentleman who built it.

Umm...mom's not really the car type, it was more an age/ year thing. But she liked it nonetheless.

The front fender of the Charger was made with foil from a wine bottle. I just formed it over the shape of the kit fender, bent the dents and folds into it, and set it with super glue. After cutting the kit fender off, the foil was glued on and painted.

Acmodeler01. I can't remember who makes the jeep kit but I am sure it was not the daisy's jeep kit.  I love your charger, that thing is sweet.  What did you do to get that front fender that way?

Nice Cop cars .....uhh I forget who built them(sorry).  You need to do a diaroma of someone getting pulled over.  I have a poster of maryln and elvis being pulled over by a 50 ford they are in a 32 ford hot rod.

Great job I like seeing all these cars.

Chevymike, that's a nice Jeep. Is that the "daisy's jeep" AMT kit? Looks great!

Here are some of mine, have to represent with the exotics, or, something for all those black and whites to chase Mischief [:-,]

I've also got a rust bucket in the back... Mopar fans may want to look awayBoohoo [BH]

And for something different: the 1/32 Snaptite 1955 Bel Aire built for my mom's birthday last year.

Great start so far.  Summit nice work on your cars.  I started off building just aircraft, then it went to cars and trucks, now it is trains with a little car on the side.
