Well, I hope not to bore anyone with these pictures, I have been struggling with my camera on close up shots and have been playing around trying to figure it out. I took some pictures of some very old AMR (Andre Marie Ruf, hopefully the spelling is correct). Ruf, a Frenchman who sadly passed away a few years ago was fascinated with the big V8 powered North American endurance racers and built many models of them. Primarily the Greenwood C3's from Le Mans. His kits were state of the art at the time and very expense so I have only a few that I built.
I have more of these AMR 1/43 scale models, including Briggs Cunningham's Cadilac's from the 50's and if I can figure out the camera will post some more.
Still working on the camera but here goes:
This car started off as the Rudy Braun racer that was white with huge splashes of yellow and red. I screwed up the decals so decided to make my own version of "my"C3. The Braun Corvette had an interesting history, disappearing for a long time over a supposed legal matter. The car has since been restored.
This is the famous Heinz and Johnson 57 Rebel Car
Valvoline Car
DeKon Monza
