I built the car to look as realistic as possible. This is the first car where the front wheel wells aren't only built to the fender but are also built right against the firewall because the nose was more compact. The front grille is similar but at the same time is also unique. The windows are tinted.
I covered the extra plastic of the taillights and the front lights so that it wouldn't look like I just slapped it on. I made the bumpers out of aluminum paper and gave the bottom section of both bottom bumpers a rubber lining which was made of cardboard and leather. The side doors open opposite from each other, and the back doors open opposite from each other, too. This is van is a 15 seater.
I gave this car as a gift to GEC.

Yellow 1970 Lincoln Continental
I made this car in the summer of 2007.
The trimming is made of foil. The grille is made of chicken wire.
This is the first car to have 3-dimensional wheel wells. All the lights including the taillights light up. It has a Continental kit.
The seats and the top of the dashboard have leather on them. The dashboard has a light-up speedometer.
I like this car because of its classic style. I gave this car away to one of the maintenance men at my apartment complex.
This is the first car to have a bumper built with it instead of separately. The foils gives the illusion that the bumper is separate.

Pontiac Trans-Am, also known as Knight Rider
The batteries go in the trunk. The back side of the roof is partly glass (actually plastic). The mirrors are made of real glass.
The light-up grille is very similar to the actual grille on the real car.
The steering wheel is coated with aluminum paper. The dashboard lights up. The car is lined with purple velvet. The seats are black leather.
The trim on the car is aluminum paper.
I really like this car because it comes very close to the actual Trans-Am. I gave this car to my friend Mikey.

The back bumper is custom made for the actual spare tire. The car is remote controlled.
The trimming is made with wood covered with silver painted paper. The roof is lined with leather.
The grille is made of chicken wire.
The mirrors are made of plastic and cardboard.

The Lincoln Air Cruiser
The cruiser's engines are made from cardboard, paper, and water bottles.
The front windshield trimming is made of silver painted paper.
Back section of the roof has two lights on both sides.
The bottom of the car has a pontoon structure, making it aerodynamic. I built the pontoon structure to hide the wiring. The batteries are in the trunk. This was a very complex vehicle to make.
The front windshield has a late 1940s style. The engines have a Lincoln symbol on them.
Half of the roof is covered with leather-look fabric.
The hood opens sideways. I made the front bumper as part of the car which gave me some ideas for my 1970 Lincoln Continental bumper that I made later on. The lights in the front are bent to go with the aerodynamic design of the face.
I like this car because it has a sleek design. I sold this car.

1973 Ford Truck
I wanted to try something new. I like the size of this truck. I also like its classic style and its protruding grille.
I tried to make the toolbox look realistic by crisscrossing the glue that I put on it and giving it a silver paint color.
I tried to make the grille look like the exact grille of a real truck, a true 1973 Ford truck.
I wanted the trailer to be as realistic as possible, so I added the ridges inside the truck bed. I added a ceiling light inside the truck cab. The wiring to the ceiling light is hidden underneath the paper that I glued to the truck cab.
The toolbox hold the battery power.
I sold this truck.

Silver 2006 Nissan Maxima
The trimming is made with wood covered by black plastic.
The grille is made of plastic, wood, cardboard, and paper. And it lights up.
The wheels are actually scooter wheels. The roof has a sun window.
The taillights and the trunk were very complex to make because the trunk sort of fuses in with the rest of the body and the lights themselves.
The front lights were very complex to make because of their shape. The grille had its own light socket. The dashboard was made to look like the dashboard inside the actual vehicle.
The front bumper had its own design as well. It is a non-hollow bumper. I made it of coardboard layers. The grille has a very interesting look because it almost looks like the actual grille.
