Walk with me down Memory Lane?
Recently, while scrounging around moving boxes in search of long lost models to unpack after years of travel, I found this box of random model parts, pieces and components. This is the equivalent of a time capsule of my modeling prowess. While I have occasionally examined some of these boxes since first packing them, several of my models have not seen the light of day since August 1990!
What have I found?
Long ago I built ESCI's 1/9 BMW 75 with sidecar (Thanks to Old Model Kits for the image!):
The tool box and saddle bags:
Does anyone recognize the Revell 1/40 105mm howitzer ammo box, or the open and closed ESCI 1/35 7.5cm le.IG 18 ammo boxes?

Ha ha! Memory lane is right! When I was in high school I had the Esci 1/9 scale Zundapp and my brother had the BMW which we had gotten at Wal-Mart. Not sure how good a job we did on those, but we thought they were so cool! Must have been reboxes, though--the box art was quite different from you pic.

Tamiya's original jeep cargo and some other things (radios?):
I think these are from a Revell kit:
