PICS - Tuesday's built ups ...

Johan 1963 Olds Starfire ht done about 25 years ago

MPC 78 Dodge Monaco sedan winter beater. I had an old messed up model lying around in the basement and thought I'd have a little fun making a drivable winter beater you'd see back in the 80's driving around the salty New England winter roads in an ugly 70's green with a brown vinyl top. LOL.

Doug,. that Olds is great, but that Dodge--WOW!!! I'd swear it was a 1:1 straight from our Buffalo winters. Fantastic job!

The Dodge is very original!

I have a damaged DM '57 Chevy I'd like to "crash" so that I can attach the DM Dodge tow truck to it! I'm inspired to see if I can do it.

I love the beater, never cared for the '63 Starfire. But, nice work.
