No, I didn't make it. What it was is the top of a scale model trophy from AMT I think. Found it in some old parts box & decided to see if I could color it with Fine Point markers. Just something to do ! G-Paw

That's slick gpaw. I like to detail like that. I actually built a HO scale car from a kit one time. I still have it. Must of had 20 or 30 little parts to it. I built it and detailed it too. Almost committed Harri-Kari twice but I got 'er built.

Hemi, I think it was Revell that made sets of HO cars. I know I've seen the Mopar set on E-Bay, not sure of the year.
There were 5 or 6 cars in a package .

Very nice Big D. You had to do seats too ! Good Job. Somewhere I have an old HO Schlitz truck. still in the box. I think it's metal? Now I have something new to search for.

Tom,
you BET itsty bitsy. the 1/87th scale is 3.5 MM to the foot! (I'm an avid modeler in that scale of trains, or once was, taking a break for that madness for awhile!
As for you Dennis, THATS amazing work man! NICE job on the ole (what looks to be) a Beverly Hillbillies car..... NICE work! The engine go "pop" too? Or "gurgle" however you want to phrase it!
Gpaw, I WILL be on the lookout for the Mopar Mini's...... I really, don't care what year, as I like most of them! So..... I do have a small collection of 1/64th "Matchbox" and Hot Wheels Mopars so..... a few really nice ones too! I ought to get pics as MOST of them are still in there packaging! (ONE day), my little display case will be done for displaing them! Whwen the cold weather, and rain stops!
