Atlantis & T.D. Unreal roller box art !!

Here it is!!!! TWO trees of retro glory!!! I have never had a mint Unreal, 2 junkers only. As stated really only two trees of parts (cut into 3 to fit box), instructions and decals. Very well molded in a Met Green with GREAT clean chrome. Colorful box, decals look great with Met Gold trim. Other Atlantis decals applied very well. What can I say....one more grail down......now for a Honest Engine and Laramie Stage Ghost and collection is complete!Thanks

Got my Groovy and Unreal Friday.....very well done. To thank Atlantis I am buying multiples of both! -
I did a lot of model car related licensing from early 1980's to late 1990's. The very first one was with Goodyear @ $5 a year with a release contract. It's kinda like 'how much to cut down a tree' Thousands of answers as to how much licensing is for anything.

During the hey day of the Pontiac Trans Am I was an officer in the SCCA club. The biggest money maker was the Pontiac license. How tough they are today????

This is a Zvezda 1/35 scale kit of a GAZ AAA which is a Ford Model AA under license. I decided to build it as a civilian vehicle and not a military as offered. The kit is decent, has a body made of 9 parts counting fenders. They go together OK if you take your time. I added 55 gal drums from Tamiya and other extra parts to make a rural delivery ASHLAND oil truck. ASHLAND used this type truck well into the late 1960's.....canvas covered low side beds.I made all the decals and used Tamiya white and red spray cans.Thanks for looking

Wonder if they got the SCCA license for 'Trans Am'??? That was the issue with AMT and Revell for years.

Nice to see that kit built. Well done. I hope those are my decals.....there is a guy on ebay that photo copies ALL my decals......? I know it's to late for you.....but back when Model King issued these kits I was working with them and did a How To on building thsese kits.

Having owned a real 82 Z28 I bought two of these old promos thinking I'd build a model of my car. The first one I got shattered into hundreds of pieces when I tried to remove the body. Even the interior sides just fell off! So handle carefully!
