Shafers model car thread

you guys got me to go into the basement and find the model I made (about 20 years ago) of the '66 mustang I had (a little longer ago).

here's the only evidence I have of the car- a bad polaroid:


and the model:


I made the aluminum slotted wheels, had to carve the lines for the quarter panel-to-rocker panel and rocker panel-to-door seams, the seams for the qtr. panel caps and the headlight bezels.



the frenched gas cap and blacked out rear window



here's the model sitting on the oval air cleaner lid depicted on the model (I still have most of the things I airbrushed for myself back then lol):



this reminds me that the hood scoop on the car was an a-body scoop (my brother had an extra 1/2 of a set of two for some reason- I filled the bezel area and built it up to sit level. The one on the model was simply sanded from a piece of plastic.
Never noticed that I didn't paint the vent window frames on the model correctly :tard:

Models I made more recently were better- like drilled out exhaust pipes and such:D
