A late comer as far as the classic Universal Monsters are concerned, the Creature from the Black Lagoon first appeared in the film of the same title in 1954. This is a pretty awesome kit. Love the cave with the skeletal hand sticking out of it. Big lizard, snake, dead tree...Aurora really built on the scene setting base phase they began with The Mummy. Below is original box and glow box followed by my built up.

Aurora also ran a contest among the fans of the kits and the magazine Famous Monsters of Filmland. Here is the ad for the contest from the back of a DC comic.

(Not Really)
Started on the 1925 Model T Hot Rod. Put the engine together and mounted it on the frame. This one has an exposed engine so it will have at least spark plug wires.
