Interesting...I've heard the song, never seen that pic...looks like a '65 or '66 convertible w/ a later hood, a 4dr ht left front door, and a '50s left front fender.
Great video...my favorite of his series so far is the one filmed at the old race track in France...Montlhery...
Huh? That's silly...this car is a race car..as real as any other race car...like a NASCAR race car, Indy car, F1 car, drag car, etc...
Yes, the Cyclone has different quarter panels, front fenders and hood.
I'd love to see Revell tool up a stock '68-69 Cyclone GT..one of the gaps in musclecar kits for 40+ years.
IIRC, the Hardcastle & McCormick kit had a step bed like all the earlier MPC issues..the Fall Guy version (and the reissue about 10 years ago) were the only fleetside MPC Chevy/GMC truck kits of that generation.
The pattern I've observed is that if Revell says it is a July release, that means it will be at the preferred partner shops around the 25th of the month and everywhere else within about 2 weeks..i.e. early in the following month.
Saw this article over the weekend..police stopped a guy driving a junker Pinto wagon that had a gas jug in place of the passenger seat and a hose connected from the jug to the carby. What a moron!

It's definitely a great escape...though I never seem to finish anything, I spend my hobby time in the hunt and buying kits mostly. My work is very mental, fast-paced and at times exhausting w/ long hours.
Which is so boring... I like those subjects, but there are so many other modern subjects that should be kitted also...instead we get '50s Hudsons. Sad times for the hobby. The hobby won't survive if they only target the AARP crowd.
