    If they could find the 1961 Impala 4dr Sport Sedan, that would be great

    Get Smart

    IT has a very funky wheel connection. You can't predict the final appearance.I tried using the compact Corvair tires that came with the Get Smart kit but they don't fit well. The kit tires from Matchbox are actually better

    1957 and 1958 Fords had a very short life in the snow country of the USA. After 5 years on salted roads, most fell apart as the rust was incredible.

    I have several issues of the 1965 Elcamino and the emblems are different. I think they freshen up the tools and regrind the details over time. Anybody know for sure.

    It popped out of place when I moved the model an took a picture. Better fit than appears.

    This is the AMT Matchbox Sunbeam aTiger which Round2 is going to reissue. It has most of the Get Smart parts, meaning glass chrome chassis and imterior. No spy parts in 1980 issue and has a Ford V8.

    I think this is Sunflower Yellow. I am sure MCW can supply the paint if not at the auto parts store.

    The Daisy Dukes Jeep has that V 6?

    AMT had a 1958 promo but not the kit. So trying to find a 1/25 1958 TBird not warped is a job

    These Mustangs represent the end of muscle Mustangs. I like to collect them too, especially the 1971 and 1972s,
  19. Bob Ellis
    I agree about the headlight accent
  20. Bob Ellis
    The 1969s are Dodges, the 1970s are Plymouths

    It's not that bad to convert. just find an early ERTL 1972 CHevelle with the correct grille.

    JIm, the paint work on the 2+2 is superb
