I think this looks pretty cool.

And I really like this one too:

I've had this thing for 32 years, so I guess you could say I kinda like it.......

You beat me to it.

Scale Equipment Ltd. makes some really nice Pontiac Rally II wheels.

First you need to lengthen the chassis. 4-door Torinos had a 4-inch longer wheelbase than the 2-doors.

The flyer says 1:25. Then it says 1/18....

75-ish Monza.

Pontiac honeycomb wheels, done up like the Vectors. Also some new tires and Olds SS wheels for the 84-85 Cutlass. There were pictures on Facebook.

That's really interesting. I just looked at some eBay listings for the 69 side markers and you're right - they are just reflectors. I always assumed that they were illuminated as well. Ya learn something new every day. I still think the 68 Chrysler corporate side marker lights were the coolest of any, but the GM "logo" rear side markers were really cool too.

In 68 reflectors were allowed on the rear quarters (Ford did this) but from 1969 on all side lights were illuminated. Some manufacturers molded the lenses so they would act as reflectors as well as marker lights.

There was a vertical split in the middle of the grille on the 69 Charger.

Mark IV and V were on the same chassis as the 72-76 Thunderbird, which was a lengthened version of the Torino/Montego etc chassis. Rear anti-roll bar from a Mark IV was a direct bolt on to my 72 Montego wagon.

Not sure if it's a copy of the kit part but Speed City Resin does a really nice 8 3/4 axle (scroll down a bit): http://speedcityresin.com/PartsPageChassis.html

I heard that Revell was working on a tool for a very popular musclecar that was designed so it could easily represent two years of that particular car with minor styling differences. That's all I will say. It would have been an impressive kit, a replacement for another company's kit that has been reissued a number of times.
