1/4 scale bodies

I have built a number of 1/4 scale models over the years. There was a reference to the red coupe on this forum a few years ago. None of the cars are RC but the bodies are the right scale to fit in here. I have also made about a dozen of the girl models. The fiberglass car bodies are vinyl-ester tooling gel coat and resin. The car uses a few 3D printed parts and the girl was modeled in the computer and printed. Still a lot of work after the printing process for a good surface finish.

Other shots are a Fiat coupe body and 1927 Ford roadster body.

Thanks for comments.
The engine in the coupe is a modified "Visible V8". That's the first 1/4 scale car part I made. All the other engines
are scratch built. I only posted mainly the bodies as the cars are display models and not RC.

I am new here and just found this post. Are these bodies for sale? I would be interested in the orange Ford 5-window.
