unclescott58 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I love the Petrolicious videos. And this is another good one. It also makes me wonder about the old MPC kit of the Howmet Turbine. I'm wondering if that's the car MPC modeled? Or another variation? I have to go to work, so I don't have time to research it right now.

landman Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I wonder what that track is. I play Real racing 3 and some of those curves look awfully familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Interesting car. I apologize I have been watching the Mura S video over and over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torinobradley Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 That magazine in the video is an article about detailing the model car. So there is either a kit of this beast or an article about how to create it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afx Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Great video. I would like to have the original kit as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordairgtar Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I've a couple of glue bombs that hopefully will yield me a nice model of the Howmet car. Does anyone know what model mag had the article for detailing the kit? The Can Am version does not look at all like the box art. Artwork has a wind screen and kit has no windscreen and the shapes just in front of the cockpit are "off" a bit. Also artwork shows four headlamps whereas the kit has two. The Can Am kit will yield parts to restore the coupe however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
