    Here are a couple of 1/43 Trax models I've changed to left hand drive. I modify a lot of diecasts in different scales. The wagon came with wide whitewalls. I hand painted the narrow ones. The stock Valiant is a modified racer like the one you see in the photos. I added chrome hubcaps and the wide whitewalls came from the wagon. I have many other Trax models in 1/43 and 1/24. I know the wagon is shorter than the American version but it's still a nice model. Thanks for looking and feel free to comment. -Rich

    I have three AMT 59 Lincoln 3 in 1 kits built up. I had a bunch of the Craftsman Series issues so decided to build one of them. You might guess I like 59 Lincolns (and 60 too). This is built right out of the box except that I used Modelhaus AMT 59 style tires as the ones in this kit were the 61 style tire and didn't have wide whitewalls. I did not paint the body, I just polished the plastic. I am happy the way it came out. I hope you like this one. I didn't take interior photos before assembling it. I welcome comments, good and bad. -Rich

    Here's a pickup I modified by removing all the extra accessories. I like it much better this way. The first 2 photos show the way it looks from Franklin Mint. I also have a few of the stock red versions. Thanks for looking.

    Thanks for the ideas! I've had them as early as 1960 I agree That's a possibility.

    I had four of these NOS kits so didn't feel too guilty about building one of them. It's not an especially valuable kit. It's built right out of the box except that I used Modelhaus tires as the 61 kit tires reacted with the plastic. I finished this one last Sunday but just took the pictures yesterday. !961 is my favorite (and the first) year of this body style. I hope you enjoy looking at it. Comments and questions, good or bad, are always welcomed. -Rich

    They are hard to find but I still have the built kit, 2 unbuilt, and 4 of the Crystal Starflites. It took over 40 years.
