VINTAGE WRECKED CAR MODELS | by JOHN FINDRAS

nice find on ETSY. JOHN FINDRA from south carolina is a retired business man “who decided to start making junkers” in 1-24th scale. after selling the first models on his wife’s ETSY site he started an own shop named “CLASSICWRECKS”. JOHN wrecks and rusts the cars and put on extra details and paintings by hand. he loves working with a lot of different materials like plastic, wood, metal and wires. great idea, super results – unique! photos | JOHN FINDRAS
