One I built years ago when they were plentiful and cheap. Used the body and bumpers with AMT chassis and innards. Only JoHan I’ve had in a long time. Would love to find another body and bumpers to build another one as this one got destroyed by an Ex.

Hi!

Many among us are happy just to OWN a rare JOHAN kit. I can relate, but I much prefer to build them! If you happen to feel the same, share a few of your prized "unobtainium" kits!

LOVE that Torino!! ?

Hi Keef!

This is a circle-track racer, made out of a stock bodied (promo?) that Johan cobbled-up together. But it can be built into a good ProTouring.

Whoa dang!! Excellent topic Claude!!
Beautiful builds guys. I love these rare old kits. I have one in the works that will be finished “soon”, and only one built so far. 3 more in the stash…

There's some great builds posted here! The '62 Chrysler with the silver/blue fade blows me away!

Here's what I've got:

There are others in boxes and ziploc bags waiting to be built...someday.

Hi Tim!

Great fleet. I would do bad things for that Toro... Very hard to find around here!

Hi Steve!

Great. Is-this the engine from AMT's WagonRod? It looks the part...

Here’s my two.  I built the black one similar to one I built in high school, and the red one is a glue bomb I cleaned up a little.
