... on the beach

[gessy]

Today I will show you a few old, very old pics which I did in 1976-1978 (can't remeber the year exatcly).
The used kit was the "Heavenly Hearse" from Jo-Han. I think to remember that this is the 1958 Cadillac.
You can bult it up in two versions: the normal hearse and as ultimatvely Beach-Party-Machine. Of course, I decided to the built it as Party-machine!
Now, more than 30 years ago I often took pictures in black and white (don't ask me why) but here is one of the results:

appearing on the beach:


going in possition


ready to catch the wave


maybe a hot engine


Now, to create these photos I used a mirror-reflex-camera, a halogen-flooder (beamer), sand for birds-cages, some stones from a small river and a poster from an island (maybe anywhere in asia?)

The model was painted in a red-pink-metallic color
Within the kit there were two surfboards and two sets of scuba-diving-bottles.

Very cool! The black and white pictures are real neat, and that is a wild model. You still have it?

[gessy]

Yes, of course I still have it.
And also another one which will be built als funeral-vehicle, but I didn't finished it until now.
