Not nearly the quality of most of the other work on display here, but then, most of them are over 30 years old. Younger, less experienced hands...

My entire collection of built Matchbox models...

The first model I ever built, somewhere around 1979, bought for me by my sister...
Image
These are from the same era, when I was in school...
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
These were started a long time back and were 'matured' till finished recently!
Image
Image
Image
This was the last Matchbox kit I bought from a shop...maybe around 1992-93...
Image
These are new builds, obtained mainly of ebay...
Image
Image
Image
Like someone above said, still great kits! (and someone should make them again!)

Cheers,

Asoka
