Default Model cars

I've had these for almost 30 years. The model paints are from 1971 when I started to build them at 11 years old. Notice the miss print 429. To bad the miss print isn't worth what a miss printed coin would be. Waiting for retirement to build them. If it ever comes. LOL.

Here’s a Drawer Find, nice patina I have the parts. I think it’s the orig date coded glass, engine is wrong color, master isn’t black/cad. Hate painted boosters, oh, wrong thread. Lol

That looks like a perfect start to build a model that looks just like my Camaro.
