How about some old classic plastic? ...

I can't hold a candle to some of the fine craftsmen here, but I had fun making these.

Very nice Doug. If the mints did these I buy every single one.

John, I build the Imperial about 20 years ago,

The others between 10 and 15 years ago I haven't done much with plastic since I got into precision diecasts.

Nice plastics, Douglas; I did a few, a '55 T-Bird, and have a few 2 do ...with paint(s), etc., they can also be expensive, and a time-taker, but fun and rewarding. Sometimes, tho', it's so much easier to " make a bid " or 4-ward an " order "; don't they call it " instant gratification "? I'm a sucker for that one!!!=;
