The treatment is for their RC line

All Monogram Funny Cars from the 80's are 1/24 scale, with the exception of the snap 1/32 kits.

Check out Speed City Resin, they have a really nice Corvair body http://www.speedcityresin.com/GMPage.html

Well, my wallet is safe!

I think I have the Resin version of this, and for sure know that I have a Cheetah resin. Got it years ago from a fellow modeler in my club.

There really never was any when it was first issued, and actually, I never saw any love of any of the boat combos back then. Most of them ended up on clearance shelves and the cheap tables at shows. Hopefully they sell on nostalgia or for those who never saw them.

There's a few rarities in these pics, some where rare, at least before they where re issued! LOL!

Wow, what a great time to be a modeler! Especially for those of us that where to young to enjoy some of these kits when they first came out, but now we have them, as well as the latest from the companies! Dying Hobby my Asp! ?

A few things laying around that I think might be a bit rare these days.

It is still around. This was a few years ago.

Just discovered another Walmart in my area is carrying models. But, they are not in the toy section, they are in the crafts section! Yes, next to the fabric and little old lady trinkets! So keep looking, they may be somewhere weird!

Very nice and clean build

The GTO is the real star of this offering, everything else is pretty meh

Maybe because you are going to a link that is 12 years old. And he never bothered to update anything around here, like if he is even still in business.

Maybe just post an ad in the Wanted section for those parts and just replace them.

JoHan made a full detail kit and a Promo, that later became an unassembled easy kit

I would love to see some early stuff done, but, the biggest problem I see with that is the limitations of the chassis for the kit maker. Most of these cars where one off types, or made by someone in their garage or shop for themselves. Sure they can be adapted to bash different cars, but for the kit maker, how many different versions of the Greeks early Chizler can you make? Now, with that said, The Surfers car, which was made by them in a motel garage, is base on the Chizler, so that is a second possibility.

Yes, Union Model managed to get the Revell Datsun molds and make a few kits back in the 80's. The BRE 510, Z, and the Brock Buster where done by them. For a long time, they where one of the only available issues of these kits, the other being Lodela of Mexico and their re-issues of these kits. I only know this because I am Datsun Nerd! LOL!
