I've seen quite a few of those. They are really good work.

Lee, you really captured it!  I've seen so many just like that at the salvage yard.  One tip though, they usually take the wheels off and the car is sitting on old rims on their side.

I've seen a couple of models of TAs like this -- pretty cool idea, actually, and a lot closer to what most of us have seen than we want to admit. :) :)

You have talent Lee01, glad you bought a T/A a few months back and signed up to this board. I wouldn't mind getting a quote for a copy of my car in it's current state. Then one of the car when it's restored.

Besides the plastic models, there are companies on ebay that will do the metal 1/18th scale cars too.
I think they look cool myself.
And, just like the real cars in that condition, they pull big $$$!  ;D ::)

Here some more, i've built probably over 100 models over the years. It was fun, but now with the T/A resto and 2 kids, no more time at all :(

Here only a few of them

I will post my 50+ vintqge Nascar pics later, It looked so nice, too bad I have to sell them all....
