Built the model kit many years ago. Around 1970 or '71. And yes even the model had a Toronado drivetrain. The engine sits just behind the driver. In front of the main passenger compartment. I think the model sold by the company Eldon. If the model ever appears back on the market I'd buy one. It's kind of a dumb design, but it's part of my childhood. Scott

Still working on this Dave. How strong and clear is this watch crystal glue? Tell me more. Scott

Good looking 'Cuda. Way to go. Scott

I was wondering about Hubleys also. Didn't they offer a Model A Fordor Sedan as one of their metal A kits? Scott

Wow! Very cool in so many ways. I like it! Scott

I love the license plate. After the Chevy disaster it's exactly what you needed. Scott

Another nice one, Jim. Scott

Great looking and Edsel too! I'm envious. I'd love to add a '60 Edsel to my collection someday. Scott

Another nice looking Ford. Scott

Looks great, of course. But, I expect that of anything you do. Scott

Wow! Very nice. And thanks for including info on the color. It looks great. Scott

Plus the Police car market is really not all that big. Scott

I'm sorry I misunderstood. Your looking for an MPC Charger III. Scott

I'd love to see it and the Charger III you have listed as working on. Scott

Wayne contact me at: unclescott58@usiwireless. I've tried a couple of time to send a message through "proper" forum channels. But, it says I can not send it too you. Heck if I know why? Scott

Who was it that said,"Too much of ________ (fill in the blank) is wonderful."? It seems right to see a Dodge/Mopar product doing something as politically incorrect and primitive as these burn outs. Obliviously the guys at Fiat understand American muscle. This is a good thing. Scott

Looks very nice. Scott

I'd say the Revell snap kits look better than the old AMT kit. But, despite that I just bought another AMT '63 this last Thursday. They depict two different types of Corvettes equipment wise. The old AMT kit kit has an engine, where the Revell is a curb side. AMT's Corvette has fuel injection badging, cast aluminum wheels, and a four-speed transmission. Revell's depicts a car with no fuel injection, standard wheel covers, Powerglide and rare for '63 factory air conditioning. Which do I like better? It's a toss up. I like the idea of a car with air. But, I really like early Vettes with fuel injection. And since the fuel injected Sting Rays had solid lifters, you could not get factory air with them. By the way, I own several of each. Scott

Saw my first Tesla sedan on the road a couple of weeks ago. I'm not a big fan of modern cars. But, I liked the looks of the Tesla. Very nice looking car. Scott

OK, no real surprises here. Scott

How was the driver of the car? If he didn't get hurt, which I suspect and hope, I found the video kind of cool. And sorry to say this, but things like this are going to happen from time to time. Doing somethings involves risk. Sometimes even to ones life. But, that sometimes also what makes things worth doing. Scott

I'm surprised AMT or MPC did not do the Manta Ray back in the 1960's. They did most every other popular show car at the time, but the Manta Ray. I can understand Art Anderson's arguments of why they might not want to tool up a kit of it today. But, where was it when it was appearing in things like Beach Blanket Bingo? There is some question by several people posting here that people under 45 would not be interested in a lot of the cars suggested by others here. I'm not so sure of that. A lot of cars that we found cool as kid, the younger crowd does too. Go to real or model car shows, see what interests them. I'm always amazed see people much younger than I excited over cars they could have not seen back in the day. Cool is still cool, no matter how old you are. I'm way too young for the late 40's and early 50's Hot Rods and drag cars. Hudson was gone just before I was born. I didn't grow up with Model Ts or As running around. Or classic Duesenburgs, Packards, and Cords. But, guess what? Just as earlier generations thought they were cool, so did I. Cool is cool no matter it's age. Heck there are things from antiquity that I think are cool. Scott

Beautiful Corvette Sting Ray. Scott

I really like the UPS show truck. I never knew that it existed. Scott

Wow! As noted by others, a stunning save. I'm impressed. Scott
