I built every thing from the "First Moon Landing" to "Elvira" , with a human skull in there too !  Pretty strange year . :D

Apollo 11 landing , built for the 50th anniversary .
1 - First Moon Lnding

First Funny Car I've built since the 60's !
2 - Eliminator

I spent several months on this one . First place in the "Ed Roth Rat Fink Weird-Ohs Reunion Contest" .
3 - Digger

This is the Atlantis reissue of "The Ghost Of The Red Baron" with LED eyes added .
4 - Ghost

A survivor from around 1977 , a couple of wheels had fallen off but this is basically how it looked when I unboxed it !
5 - Streaker Vette

Nice little "Snap" kit . This is right out of the box , somebody could really super detail this kit !
6 - Lightning McQueen

Box stock build of an original kit from my stash . Not happy with the color , I really wanted to just practice making the white decals .
7 - AMT Funny Car

A replica of one of my 1:1 '60 El Caminos . I built this several years ago but now redid it with the correct wheels and tires , lowered ride height , and steering added .
9 - 1960 El Camino

Another long term build using an old Monogram body , some diecast parts , and a resin Elvira. First place in the Halloween Contest .
9 - Elvira

All superbly done. A real evocation of the Joy Of Modeling. The Moon Landing is a stunner, but as a died in the wool auto modeler my fave is the El Camino - a knockout. All the best to you for 2020.

Great spirit of modeling going on there!  I've done Deal's Wheels last century, your projects really do the subjects justice.

Thanks much Bernard !  You picked my favorite too , but I'm biased 'cause I owned the real thing . :D

Lot of cool stuff Bob! Love the El Camino! I also really like the Streaker 'Vette! I had that model way back in the day and it was one of my favorites. I'd like to get my hands on another one and build it right out of the box.

You are a real master Bob!

 

I would be lying if I said that a lot of this particular subject matter interested me, but it is all top notch work none the less!

 

That '60 El Camino is absolutely killer!!

  I love them all , although  I too love the El co.  I also build more than cars and can appreciate all your builds. Wonderful detail on the Lunar landing.

Thanks very much Roger !  I've got another unbuilt Streaker Vette waiting to be built but I doubt I could improve much over the survivor .  :D
