I’ve built this one a long time ago. It was just a quick build. I was thinking for a while if this build was worth a blog post – and today I thought: although it isn’t one of the greatest builds around, maybe it can be of some inspiration for some of you. This model [...]

I’ve built this model right after the 40 Ford and the 57 Ford junker plus sofa. So this was my third junk scale model. The idea was to make a simple build. So I didn’t put much extra effort on scratch building parts or anything else. Still, I did take the time to cut the [...]

Although this kit isn’t the most modern one and the car isn’t the most “muscle-like” one, I sill thing it is kind of special – both as a kit and as car. For the junker fans: this car has a fiber glass body, so hold back your junk model car weathering here The body is [...]

This is a nice AMT Kit, with a few extras but no big surprises. I tried to figure out which year this truck could be, but Mack manufactured pretty much the same R685ST for several years (at least mid seventies to mid eighties) – so I couldn’t find out the year this truck is supposed [...]

This 36 Ford is based on the 3-in-1 AMT kit many of you know. It took me some time to figure out how I wanted to build this car – specially while thinking about the question “fenders / no fenders”. I went for “no fenders”, as you can see. I saved the fenders for the [...]

The Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria surely is a charming car. You know by now that this car means something to us at Modeljunkyard. My brother wrote about his real 55 Vicky some time ago.  Now it is time to check out the kit. This kit is one of AMT’s finest, in my opinion. It has [...]
