I may be opening a General Lee floodgate, but.....

I love to see replicas of famous TV or Movie cars. Did you build a Monkeemobile, a BJ and the Bear Kenworth, a Bluesmobile police car or a detailed wrecked Eleanor from the original Gone in 60 Seconds. Post your built plastic models here. Please, NO prebuilt diecasts allowed, I want to see YOUR creations only.

Please tell us what movie or TV show they're from, especially the more obscure stuff. Not everybody may recognize Greg's first car from the Brady Bunch (56 Chevy convertible, if you're interested) or Uncle Jesse's pickup, along with an online picture of the real car if possible.

Dioramas are great too, let's see those famous cars in action!

This is another builder's car. I can't remember his name, but I liked the camera angle and the ingenious display. He photographed it looking out the windshield of his car!

If this is yours - please, step up and tell us who you are.

This is the Model,

Repstock, I'm glad you posted your Rockford Files cars here. I've seen them in the past and think you did a great job. Thanks for responding.

BTW - Did you make the truck from the Monogram or MPC kit? And how did you do the side trim so well?

Beautiful builds. I've never seen a Batmobile with engine. And I can tell you built the General from the superior Revell kit, I plan on doing that myself someday. Thanks

This was an answer to a challenge.  

The kit was given to me in pieces with a warped roof and a poorly shaved body....it was beyond "gluebomb"....the guy said "You'll never be able to do anything with this!".  A few weeks later I was watching TV one night......

No, it's not the Monogram kit.
