my dad built a 1/72 scale F-15 for me once... but my first kit was a Revell Corvette C5-R Datona 24 hour car... after that was a Revell 1968 Corvette Roadster, then i had a crack at a Revell 1953 Corvette Roadster. in fact Road ace still has some of the parts from my 4th attempt a Revel supercharged 1968 Corvette Race Car converted into a 1969... the engine, side panel exhaust, rear tires and internals are from that car, the rest are newer parts.

my first airplane was a 1/48th scale Revell P-51D Mustang, it was made into the 1/48th scale Revell Monogram Ace Of Spades P-51D Mustang #1
