"Here is a Revell Funny Car I built with the ModelArt sponsor, a model magazine here in Australia. I've painted it with Tamiya Candy Lime Green Pearl and Racing Blue over a deep metallic blue."

This is probably one of the best Funny Car kits out there. Revell nailed this one! The engine is off-center like the real car, and the kit is well-engineered overall. It's built box-stock, and the bumpers are chrome metal foil. The paint is red metal flake over gold.

I scratchbuilt this 1971 Camaro Funny Car almost 40 years ago. It is wired and plumbed, and has working steering, throttle linkage, and fire extinguisher release systems. Additional features include a metal body interior, paneling, seat, and fuel tank.

I scratchbuilt this 1973 rear-engine Vega panel wagon Funny Car 38 years ago using two AMT Vega Funny Car kits and a modified MPC Funny Car chassis. The bolt-on wheels were made using jeweler screws and nuts.

This is the Revell Chuck Etchell Kendall GT-1 Dodge Avenger Funny Car. It is built stock. I blacked out the chrome, and covered it with Tamiya Pure White and Gloss Black.

I wanted it to look like a 1980s street machine. It won Top Street Machine at a model car show out of 200 other model cars.
