Bought a new Bronco in Oct. and found out the Everglades I ordered in Sept. came in yesterday to the dealership. The dealer offered me 15k less than what I paid for the 23 a few months back, has only 2k miles on it, I felt insulted and left. I'll be keeping the 23 and said good bye to the 24 Everglades.

You mentioned Merkur. I built a Ford V-8 powered Merkur at least 20 years ago. Because Merkur is Mercury in German, and I always associated Mercurys with customs, I decided to build a custom Merk. I combined the roof section from a stock Tamiya Sierra with the lower body from a racing Sierra to get the distinctive Merkur side windows with a more custom body. To this I added a 5.0 Ford V-8 from a 1/24 Monogram 55 Ford Pickup Street Machine kit. [Apparently, there were V-8 Sierras in South Africa]. I painted it purple because the first custom Merc I ever saw was purple. At the time of the build 3-spoke wheels were popular with the tuner crowd which I considered the customs of the day.
Coincidentally I came across this thread when I searched Miata and saw your stalled project. I am almost finished building a Ford V-8 powered Miata which I will display here when done.
Love the Merkur and Miata, well done!

Yup, same thing just first one of the new year. I see the wagon has already had an engine tear down and hit the wall in testing, bummer ...........

I just order 4 of these bodies from Gary Chevalle less than a month ago and received them in about 2 weeks time. As others have said he is on that Facebook page. Here is what I received.
Are these 1/25 or 1/24 scale?

Here’s my boss’s Shelby Charger from a couple of years ago. He fully restored this one to replace the one he had back in the day.
Did the Shelby have dual exhaust from factory?
