Haven't done many cars, but I have been adding to my WWll airplanes I built in school. WOW ! ...... Beautiful Tribute to the "NINE O NINE" we lost last year ......... My late Uncle gave me the kit to build, and we were planning on flying in Nine O Nine in the summer of 2015. Then he passed away suddenly, so I built it in his memory. Now they are both gone.

Several on the table. '71 Charger clone of my sons car (as close as I can get it). If spots on deck lid are visible it's filler in spoiler holes. Resin '65 Valiant clone of my first car using '69 'cuda chassis. '69 Corvair on Chevelle frame tribute car that good friend of mine had. I even added the tunnel to the interior tub. His was an LT1, 4 speed. Lost him to cancer in '11. When these are through, I have a box full of mostly Mopars including a 1/16th Street Charger I hope to build. My picture taking is terrible. Tim

Well, I wanted to keep this Mopar friendly so I held back pics of my best effort of all - a 1970 BOSS '9. Painted in Ford Grabber Green & then I did all the window moldings, decals, etc. Then I used Testors spray clear over it - it worked SO well! Still looks the same after 38 years. I think I finished this one in 1982. I noticed that on all 3 of these, I never installed the side mirrors - they always fall off on model cars I figured.

Basketcase,
The green 69 Roadrunner you have; was that the same 69 Roadrunner that was in the street racing episode of Adam 12? Just asking because there is a member here on Moparts that stated he owns the 69 Roadrunner that was on the show. Was that you?
No Sir, different car. This is the Adam 12 car, from my understanding, it was in the same owner's family until recently when it was on the show. Second pic is my car. I watched that episode of Adam 12 just the other day. Had some other cool Mopars in it too including a '70 road runner.

Wow, you guys have some really nice builds, great talent.. I could be happy looking at people's models all day..
Some of my Corona At Home Time has been spent on this.. almost finished with a 1/32 Junkers Ju-88 dive bomber. For a local Aeroscience Museum.. it'll hang in a dive, so no landing gear and props airbrushed to look like they're spinning.. - Art

I agree, Art. Lots of talent here including you. Y'all put me to shame. Tim

I have a question on the second plane with the bomb on the top of the wing.. how did the Germans drop that bomb.. roll it off the wing and it looks like it might hit the tail.. cool models though.. I use to build some model planes as a kid but no where near as cool.. thanks for the info EDIT I see now.. the pic with the bomb is the bottom of the air craft.. my ERROR

Haven't done many cars, but I have been adding to my WWll airplanes I built in school. I bought a kit and the decals to do one of those too! I had actually booked and paid for a flight on her scheduled for about two weeks after the crash... my Wife bought me a ticket for Nine O Nine for our 25th wedding annivesary a few years back. This was the day I was to go up......

Man, I wish I had time to work on models as a hobby instead of a living, I build what other people want. Oh well, it pays the bills. I'm lucky that way for sure. This is a 35M Westport Yacht, still building all the detail parts such as railing, flooring, detail trim, +++

Quick build I did for my SIL. I didn't know it was a curb-side when I bought it but planned to build it that way since it will be in a display case on my SIL's desk. Several flaws but he likes it (most glaring one is the wrong style light bar). Been many years since I put decals on a model and it is a PITA at my age. Tim
