Model Car Champion Designer (1989 - 99):

When I turned 38 I found out I had polycythemiavera and the first fibitus in my left leg left me unable to walk for over a year. I went to a Good Guys Hot Rod Show at Pomona, Ca. on crutches, and  I saw a model car contest. I decided that I could do that myself and went to the Southern Calf Open and won three trophies about 6 months later for my models. I used model car building as a way to express myself during the days of depression and fear of death. I went on to win about 400 awards with my models. I always like to be different and try to create models that did not exist before. After I quite, I sold all my models on EBay and a company named Lightning Models Detail cast many of the bodies in resin for resale.


 

 Here are some pics of a few of the award wining cars I designed.  I have included descriptions for each pic.  Click on the pic to see all in the series with a full description.

 

Probably the coolest 1941 Lincoln I ever built during my 10 year fascination with model cars.

This was my idea of a 1951 Chevy custom

This was a heck of a model to make, maybe a 1000 hour job.

Here are some pictures from various magazines that featured some of my work.

Here is an article that was written about me.

Here is an article I wrote about Slammers
