LOL. Zero Mopars in that diorama. 2 Novas, a T-Bird, a Lincoln, and a Ford pickup. Need to show DG some Mopar respect Great dirty floor though, nice details. Nice build.

Tools are money. Idiotic to not keep good, up to the day inventory. Not hard to stamp kit no or whatever on the metal, or engrave it. How can you depreciate or value your investment if you don't know what you have?? SMH

Did the cards show up in the green striped boxes that were "dealer issues"? I've not had those issues, but the cards seem primarily early Ford. I've not seen a 39-40 in a dealer box, I didn't ever see any pics after Googlage. Great info, now I need that info card from the dual dragster kit.

Convertible boot from promo in the blue car box art, IIrC in Prestige too? Don't have latest release. but doubt it was removed. Most f you prob knew that. :^)

They put the quotes on the box side in the wrong places. Vega "wagon"; "Dragster-type" chassis; "Funny car" LOL.

This thread is a good one. No harm nor foul. The ignore function for posts is invaluable, too. LOL. Posting a pet peeve in a build thread or informational thread is pointless, but some here enjoy that attention. Best part of the board is the variety of approaches to build and solve problems. Those that insist they know best, usually don't. Like Snake says, build on, and post on.

Pocher does a 1/8 scale 993 and an Aventador. Not cheap, rarely seen, even rarer built. Doubt market there really, retailers tie up $$$ and huge shelf space. The EZ build Revells seem to be better idea, and far more realistic than Lego stuff.

Casey that's a wonky looking grille/headlight door/lens. Had to bust ya a little. Merge time with the other peevage.

Thank god you said reliable, no cap. LOL Isn't the Pontiac OHC-6 an all aluminum slant 6? I don't recall it being based on the Stovebolt 6

That's an incredibly clean design save for the window. I dislike 58's-61's personally, but that car is great looking.

Pretty cool they put a single 65 GTO headlight pod on a Chevy in what, '57? Some of those styling guys had some bad drugs. 3 fins on a Buick. LOL.

My guess is Ferrari wanted too much for their stuff. They make more money of tchotchkes than they do off the cars now for years. LOL their last WDC was in 2007 with Kimi. That's the same time difference to today as a 66 Mk II and a 935-78. Except now it's AMG Mercedes handing them their....

Same TJ source boxart

Really need some Dunning-Krueger Racing decals. Kind of a Dunn-Reath take-off. Maybe a Dunning-Kruger-Darwin gasser or FED like SWC LOL

Some named on box, some not, but pictures not on every issue. Airfix Bond Aston and Toyota Roadster (both 1/24 unlike Doyusha) had drawings but no pics, only name was Bond. Doyusha had Connery on it.

Ford sells about 2 F150's a minute, 24/7/365. That's 2500/day, 941,000 pickups/yr. This is not a threat. Tesla can barely produce 2500-3000/month of SUV. If it does sell, and certainly fanbois will buy it, oooooh, 40000 trucks. I live in TX where most have trucks. This won't handle being a work truck. Mall crawler, fashion statement yes. But full load 8hr day in 100 degree weather with AC on, ummm, no. And check resale on off lease Teslas. Then check resale on an F250-350, which is what most trucks are here. LOL. Good luck Elon, keep sniffing your own flatus. +1 on Gandini.

Musk enjoys his own musk too much.

Some decent data in here, can see build up. Really nice build.

Same kit. Unsure if any adds or deletes on Coke kit. HQ kit great, tons of wheel options. Love Bug issue didn't have that, but HQ, Spiderman issues did. Fun kit.

I've seen the Beverly and the Westchester on eBay, assume thru Bob's. Does he do both slant back or trunk back, or both?

Stock 66 Cuda with Duster guts would work, or even the Fireball 500 chassis under it with corrected rear wheelwells

M2,3,4, C63, C63 estate for F1 medical car,. Current DTM, though they're like sihouettes now. Reissue Dragon E36 M3, M roadster, SLR coupe. Nice E34. Old Monogram 635CSi was decent kit too despite Tamiya/Fujimi M635's

Like a 720, and a Koenigsegg. Or the vastly overdone 991/992, GT3/RS/TT/whatever. ?. Pininfarina Bautista, Rimac, Taycan, Senna.... Really nothing to kit at all. Stuff the C8, real cars needed.

Yeah, missed that, not easiest to fix. Found this today
