Happy to join the group. I have a history as a motorsports video camera man as well as some still photo experience. 1965 to 1975.
I have been to the Monaco Gp, 1000 km at the Nurburgring, Indy 500, Numerous other race venues including some boat races. I am a scratchbuilder/ fabricator of large scale model cars in 1/6 and 1/8 scale. All are made from my drawings and sheet metal. My work can be viewed at jackreynoldsmodels.com.
Their are no restrictions on use of the photos and the models are not for sale.

Hi Jack

I'm new here myself in the last couple of weeks but nice to have you here. Quite the CV you have!!

I've been through your collection of scratch built cars tonight and I'm amazed!! SO MANY MODELS!! How long have you been at this? I've taken up scratch building too since I retired and each model takes me months ... years even!!

Wonderful work.

Welcome, sir! You certainly have a gift. And thanks for the link to your website.

How long does an 'average' car take to make?
