Let’s see your oldest surviving builds

This might be my oldest surviving build. Some years ago the front bumper was fixed/reattached. Other than that it’s been unchanged since being built 20+ years ago. Paint is Boyd black and blue pearl with a lime gold metal flake chassis and motor. Mostly box stock with lowered suspension and shaved door handles.

I love the look of this one.  Very aggressive!   This would be a cool one to build a second version of with your current skills.

Thanks Jeremy.  I have thought about it, and may possibly happen.

This is my AMT 52 Chevrolet custom, inspired by Harry Bradley's 'La Jolla' in Street Rodder magazine sometime from the 1970s. A lot of firsts for me, extended rear fenders, moulded grill, tunneled headlamps, AMT Impala wheels , roof I think is Monogram's 55 Chevrolet Street Machine though Im not really sure and visor cut from the the kit rag top , oh and first attempt at a rattle can cellulose pain job(with primer) Built, sometime in the mid 1970s
