 I had 1/25 scale models back to the early 60's. Sadly, they were destroyed in a flood in my parents basement in 1974. I had already moved out (I was 22 and we moved out of our parents houses in those days) however, my model cars were still there in a nice cabinet my father and I made (which the water destroyed).

Paintless model cars can be fun. The AMT '62 Impala convertible is an original 1962 kit that I had to build. I did the Revell '57 Ford and Chevy about ten years ago. I added wheels from Monogram '58 T-bird to the Ford and from the Monogram '57 Corvette to the convertible. The blue and white '57 Ford hardtop dates to 1978. I saw one exactly like it, restored perfectly, in the Burger King parking lot where I worked. Went home and built the model. Dusty from being unboxed in parents' basement after 35 years. Still looks good! The JoHan Road Runner was a project I started back in the late '70s and found it when I got all of my stored stuff out of the parent's basement five years ago. Fun to open boxes and see kits I had long forgotten about.
