Models from the Shop of David Palmeter


 
Above - The California Kid - 1:43 scale - I modified the Design Studio built white metal model of the restored car back to the movie version. I added wheels from a Durham '32 Ford, scratch built side pipes (not attached to anything, just like the movie car), painted extra flames behind the "California Kid" name on the doors, put a Southern California Timing Association sticker on the windshield and added almost correct license plates front and rear. I further improved the appearance with a black wash on the grille.


Above - I changed the rear bumper to a push bar.


Above -This is an original model with no modifications. Photo courtesy Dirk Mathyssen.
