The first ones are are for high school buddies of mine and were their first cars a long time ago 1974. I still have 2 more to do but my memory is failing me as to the year and model of theirs and I am running out of time. I have called other friends and they can't remember either and I hate to just guess so I'm going to have to talk to their wives and i'm guessing all they will be able to tell me is the color.wish me luck.

You certainly haven't been wasting time or idle in the shed Kevin.....
What a beautiful array of cars you've built sir....
They are just the prefect gift.......you're a good friend...
I got my first car in 1973 & was nearly wiped out later that year, right place at the right time, thank you for prompting our memories too...
Are they all your own design?
How big are they please?
Cheers, crowie...
PS - Good one asking the wives, as they have a way of prying info from us blokes without us realizing....
PSS - More photos please!!!!

The three small ones in the front row I saw on pintrest and sized them to my liking I liked size of the one with the wind blown roof so I just changed up the roofs for the others . the bodies were 1 1/2 by 2 1/2 by 7 1/2 and the roofs were 1 1/8 by 2 wide cut to various shapes and put store bought 1 1/2 wheels on them. For the bigger cars I go here The-Blueprints.com - Blueprints - Cars and find the car I want and resize the image so the wheels come out to 1 1/2 inch and most of those cars have been about 3 1/2 by 1156 chevy 4 door.jpg

G'Day Kevin, Is the blue on a charger?
But I have no idea on the other??
Saying that, all of them look great and I'm sure will be the centre of conversation, especially after the beer loosens the tongues...
Cheers crowie

The white one is a 1964 pontiac catalina and the blue one is a 1968 chevelle. Now I might have to make one for myself a black 1965 chevelle
