I'm with Cranky on this.... Its a great kit. Personally, I think this kit allows enrichment for both the builder who's trying to build as clean as he can with a little pushing out in to Box Stock+ techniques (wire, hose, al-clad, etc...) ALSO to for the builder trying to cast and scratchbuild. Glad there's a new release so I can stock up with a few more Willys. You never know when your're gonna need some parts from one. I buy funny car models anytime I see one for under $20 so I always have frames/etc to build up other models as drag cars. I'm working on building my first scratch drag frames now.... Piles of kits and 'overly simplified castings' have gotten me to this point and I may have to attend SAA (styrene addicts anonymous) with Dr Cranky.

Thanks for the support, Mr. Beaman. I don't know if you've seen what John Teresi just finished doing to a 41 Willys, but check it out. Amazing how you can have a blast with this kit.

If I can find them I still have a nice set of Slixx decals to build either car.

If you go to MODEL ROUND UP, they should have plenty in stock.
