I really like this one. I have one of the same cabs to do a similar build

So I gotta ask, is the chassis and running gear all from the same truck mentioned ?

Being I've only entered one show with 3 models in the past 10 years . My vote probably doesnt count. When I build it's for my display cabinet not a show table.

BUT, If said models didn't win previously. we'll say withing 2 consectitive years of shows . Then they should be retired .

BUT if they DID win then  ( IMO ) ,, they should be lumped in one class with other previous winners and they should compete againsts each other ( thats how the 1/1 world is done )

But as far as judges keeping track of previous years entries and then trying to police that ???   ,,,,,,,,,good luck

Most cars ( I didn't say all )  donated to teaching / education facilities are on LOAN not given for free.

I seriously doubt any of them have had there vin removed, IF they have,,, a manufacturer can't just magically just wip up another one. Once a vin is  assigned to a chassis by federal law that vin a and chassis are now as one.

Besides, like mentioned these cars are far to old to offer much if any educational value.

Plus once destroyed, Chrysler can write them off at full retail value.

I know nothing about slot cars , other than they have a very different crowd than  the modelers crowd. ( in most cases )

But never in my wildest dreams would I have thought something like that was worth that kind of coin.

But to some degree I understand the need and/or want  to add something like that to a collection.

I know if I had the means , I would easily pay some insane money for a few select dealership promotionals and especially some old drag car model kits . 

ps, and btw, Need and Want are two very different things

Sweet.

I have the same build on my list ( unfortunately it's a long list )
