Wow, what a stunner! Great build

The wire wheels look like the ones out of the AMT 289 Cobra

Oh, absolutely! Pics help out quite a bit in a conversation on these boards. But for some reason, the OP didn't do it.

Surprised you didn't get this

And leaving stock farrrr behind!

I know I will buy the F&F car just for the movie tie in since I like collecting show biz related kits. And, then I will buy the stock(?) version to build some drag cars. Revell got me since I got both ways! Er, wait.....no, but yes, I do.... never mind!

I think the thread title needs to be changed to "Now with pictures!"

I have the MPC 67 Firebird and the MPC 1966 Monaco. They are a bit rare.

Bad Mother.....Just kidding! Bare Metal Foil

This is awesome news!! Never thought I would see something like this!! Thanks, Dave!!

Nice! We finally get some decent American Racing Daisy Wheels!

Wow, I like that look! Nice build!

The Corvette, The Mustang and the Cobra

But, it is kinda funny that they used a Plymouth Superbird nose on a charger! Stock guys are not going to like this!

I don't know if we could handle the mass hanky wringing! It's not stock? OH NO!

Wow, I love all the Boo Hoo from the stock guys and the ones that don't read all the posts and start making guesses to things that have already been cleared up. Buy it or don't, they will sell and you can just sit in the corner and pout. Next!

Nailed it! Nice!!

Oh yeah! That is cool, very cool indeed!

I have not seen a model kit at a Big Lots in years, but, when they where Pic N Save, they used to have a nice selection of stuff.

That is one clean and aggressive looking machine! Nice!!

I built the Jungle Jim Camaro as a kid and managed to score me another one a few years ago. I was quite surprised that some items in the kit had been changed. The rear wheels and slicks where replaced with the newer, for the 70's, wheels and tires from the more correct line of drag cars from Revell, along with more correct HEMI valve covers. i plan on building it using the original style wheels and tires for the sake of nostalgia. As for the Huggers, our old LHS got them and could not sell them off! Finally ended up dropping the price and they disappeared. i should have bought a few more.

And you would have to build them with those crazy steam roller slicks! LOL!

Yes, you are correct. I forgot all about the '69 And how the bodies look I guess you could make a Grande or a Convertible out of it

This was Revell's attempt at making contemporary Funny Car kits. Chassis is loosely based on a Logghe style and the bodies are pretty cartoony creations. From what I know, they butchered the Grande Mustang to make this kit. Hence why we can't have a Grande Mustang anymore. . The kits in the line where the Jungle Jim/Funny Hugger Camaro, A Maverick and the Mustang. And the supposed kit that was used for the Mustang body
