Lots of favorites, depending on my mood...CadZZilla, Magnabeetle, Dream Truck, Tucker Torpedo, Mach 5, Coors Bandit, Batmobiles, or any of the cars from Talladega Nights would count. But this one was one of the first "fancy" diecasts I ever got, and since I'm a fan of both the design and movie, it holds a sentimental place: I also have to give a shout out to probably the most expensive single car I've ever bought, if only because I'm almost mad that the quality actually justified the price:

Halloween 2023 - "Left 4 Dead 2" Jimmy Gibbs Jr Car

Thanks, guys! Funny enough, all kit supplied. Round 2 has really upped their decal game over the last couple of years. It was a friend who clued me in to the game, but as soon as I saw this I knew I'd have to try to build it some day. -
Can't go wrong wit ha classic Mini, and I like that color on it!

For this year's Halloween build I made the Jimmy Gibbs Jr. car from Left 4 Dead 2. The game car is based on a '69 Charger R/T with a Daytona wing, and since time was a bit short this month I used MPC's Coca-Cola snap kit as my starting point. I stripped the chrome and redid it in gunmetal, opened the headlight doors, fixed the leading edge of the hood, used Plastic Performance Products' wheels with parts box tires, removed the center console and rear seat, raised the rear end a couple scale inches, moed the fuel fill to the right fender, added a rear panel, and scratch built the wing. Paint is Tamiya Pearl Blue and Pure White with my own custom decals. As always, any comments/criticisms are welcome!
