My first was an original issue MPC 1970.5 Corvette Stingray (dating myself here!). My mother helped paint it a green metal-flake color and i remember being fascinated by the functional front suspention and steering. A couple of years ago I found a duplicate kit on E-bay and spent HUGE money to buy it. Why did Mom have me start with a future collectable!!

Well as far as I can recollect it was a Revell 1/48 '56 Ford pickup that came with a H/D police motorcyle (when it was issued in '58) I must have built 5 or 6 every way I could think of modifying it

My first model was my Toyota Celica VII, which still looks good and an R33 Skyline that I screwed up

Where do I go to get the newbie bashing? j/k. Since I am new here I thought that this would be a good place to start. My first kit that I did by myself was the Dodge Deora. I must have been around 10 years old and it was around the early 70's. I remember getting glue on the windsheild so I painted all the glass silver to represent tinted windows. I have improved alot since then, and I just bought the release of that model to try to do a better job.
primera man, maybe the kit was Tijuana Taxi?
