MPC pro stock Pinto kits


Recommended Posts

Wondering if both of the MPC Pinto Pro Stock kits ( the Dyno Don Pinto and Gapp and Roush Pinto) are the same kit other than the chrome tree, decals and box art?

Then, as far as the chrome tree, are the wheels the only difference on the chrome trees?

The Dyno Don kit has Cragar Super Trick wheels, and the body has the hatch door. The engine may have (incorrect) Windsor valve covers. Gapp & Roush kit has Motor Wheel Fly front wheels (only MPC kit to ever have them). Rear wheels are Motor Wheel Spyders (no kit I know of ever had Fly rear wheels). The G&R kit has a sedan body with a trunk lid. It has Cleveland engine valve covers, though otherwise the engine is the same as in the Dyno Don kit.

Wow, so the kits are pretty different from each other than? I just bought the Gapp and Roush kit off Ebay (you don't wanna know what I had to pay to get it!)

Now I need to get the Dyno Don kit. I had the chance to get one for 100.00 still sealed but passed on it. Kickin myself now!
