Some of my childhood builds 2 of 3

[Scale-Master]

These were pulled from my display cases and lightly dusted today. They were properly cleaned about 10 months ago, during my semi annual cleaning of all the models on display... I have decades of builds on display in my showroom.

Jo-Han Sox & Martin Cuda done as a Bracket Racer. Built when I was 13-14. That is NOT BMF, I don't think it existed yet. It is thin kitchen foil applied with Micro Metal Foil Adhesive. (My Dad worked at MicroScale at the time. Free stuff Whoo Hoo!) Decals form the old Revell kits. Note the entirely Scratchbuilt hood! .030 styrene sheet actually... But it does have brass pins to hold it on, no clips, PE had not been invented yet... Notice the wrinkle finish I applied to the valve covers. High-tech!

Yep, telephone wire with the insulation stripped off, and painted after the engine was wired.
