I don't want to hijack Joe's 56 Ford F-100 Demon II thread but I had mentioned how easy building car kits are. I also mentioned I had done a fair share of building Monogram's Tom Daniels Design kits. Looking in eBay I had found quite a few from my youth. Here is a list of those kits I have done in my youth years.
Red Baron
Lil T'rantula
Badman II
Tijuana Taxi
Fast Buck - This is actually a piggy bank kit of an Armored Money truck
California Street Vette
Cherry Bomb
Paddy Wagon
Vandal
S'Cool Bus
Street Fighter
Lil Coffin
Cop Out - Police car dragster
Bad Medicine
Rommel's Rod
I'm sure there are others out there I have forgotten about. These kits are classics and still are around if you know where to look.
However there is one I have never seen before - Troublemaker El Camino dragster
So, the two I really would love to get my hands on are Rommel's Rod and Troublemaker.

Re: Monogram Tom Daniels Design kits...
I definitely wanted to build Rommel’s Rod! My concept was to upgrade almost everything about the kit itself using a Tamiya halftrack for treads and tires, and a new, fully blown engine of the kind Joe designs for his menagerie!
Make more models!

Re: Monogram Tom Daniels Design kits...
I have already completed the Police Paddy Wagon and the Red Baron. I have the Rommel's Rod somewhere in my stash. Most of the other ones don't interest me as much, although if given the opportunity, I'm sure I'd build Tijuana Taxi, Fast Buck, Bad Medicine to name a few. The rest I'm not all that familiar with.
I do hope to see some of these built here.
