Oh man! That translucent blue pearl paint you used was fabulous.
...I really like the smell of cardboard and styrophene when you first open a kit.
Plus modelling cement and enamel paint of course!
The Revell model kits based on "Big Daddy" Roth's show cars were selling so well in the early 1960's that other model kit companies began scouting the show car circuit for custom rods on which they could base competing kits of their own. One of the very earliest of these was Monogram's Li'l Coffin.The Li'l Coffin had been built by Dave Stuckey of Wichita, Kansas. The body was based on a 1932 Ford two door sedan and it was powered by a 1954 331 cubic inch De Soto hemi with six carbonators. In 1963 the Li'l Coffin won the Top Custom Car award at the Oakland Roadster Show, the premier rod show in the nation. So impressed were Monogram executives by the Li'l Coffin that they bought the car and exhibited it at the 1964 New York World's Fair! The Li'l Coffin kit that Monogram put out in 1964 remains an all-time classic.The bigger kids down the street, Fred and Mike, had one when I was a kid so I bought one too. I had real problems trying to assemble the thing though because some of the parts didn't fit together very well. Here's a closeup shot of the unbuilt one I have today:
Wow! Now there's a kit that would require hours of careful work to assemble.

Ah, the model car craze of the 1960s. Car Model Magazine was our internet.
