Correct, Thanks for pointing that out. Forgot about that.

Here are pics of the Cutlass Streaker parts from the Cutlass kits recently released. Yes, the whale tail circled in red is in the hardtop Cutlass kit. Notice the super charger front pulleys; circled in red. They look like the traction bar wheels that are on the AWB Streaker kit. That's in the convertible kit along with the bulge hood and the convertible tonneau top. Those are the only Streaker parts in the kits. Just need the AWB body, chassis and the rest of the drag parts. Definetely can be done if Round 2 has this kit in their archives.

The announcement is a kit which can not be built stock. Round 2 did announce the 68 GTO will be a new release, However, it's not the mystery kit.

Nothing yet. Hopefully very soon. Maybe someone can give us a hint. Even a pic of a part of the subject.

About 2 months ago I contacted him on FB. He is doing fine. I miss reading his comments here. Hopefully, he comes back soon.

When will Round 2 reveal the surprise?

has anyone hear tried this?

I wouldn't waste money on that. That will not get the paint fumes out of the room you will be painting in. Just use a simple dryer duct pull fumes outside through an open window or open door. -

AMT Streat Freaks series question.
GMP440 replied to GMP440's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Now that vintage drag racing models are hot now; seeing what Atlantis and Moebius has put out, I bet Round 2 will be more inclined to release more in this series that we haven't seen in years. -
AMT Streat Freaks series question.
GMP440 replied to GMP440's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
So, these two were the ones hard to get back in the day? What about the rest of them; were they good sellers as well? -
AMT Streat Freaks series question.
GMP440 replied to GMP440's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Thanks for the clarrification. Was this a series of drag cars that AMT did or them just randomely releasing each kit over the years. When was the last year of the original releases? Would love to see Round 2 re-release the rest of them. -
AMT Streat Freaks series question.
GMP440 replied to GMP440's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Didn't know there were 14. Looks like all have been reissued except for these: The Corvette, Time Machine Chevelle, the Streaker F-85 Cutlass and Unreal Edsel. -
When AMT did the series in 67, where these the only cars in the series or were there others: The Unreal Edsel, Mustang GT, The Time Machine AWB 65 Chevelle,, The Streaker AWB 64 F-85 Cutlass, Mad Mackeral Barracuda, AWB 64 Falcon, AWB 67 Cyclone, Chevy Nova Twister and AWB 63 Tempest. Were there anymore or just these? I know a few of these were reissued. Just wanted to know more on the history of this series. Thanks.

Anyone know when Round 2 is going to announce the mystery kit. Maybe they can show a part to give us a hint?
-

I agree with you My gut feeling too is either the AWB Time Machine Chevelle or the AWB 64 Olds F-85 called the Streaker. I'm leaning towards the AWB 64 Olds Streaker.

Why Aren’t Companies Rescanning Old Kits?

My response to the 3rd and 4th statements in paragraph 5. That's exactly the difference between the military modelers and the car modelers. -

GMP440 replied to Jordan White's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Steve, you hit the nail right on the head. I just wanted to add that this is the most cost effective way for Round 2 to release subjects that we have been requesting for years. -

Yes, that's the cost effective way to do it. -
That one was reissued an number of years ago by the Model King ,aka Dave Burket.
-
It's a good possibility. The drag version of the 69 Coronet, "The Super Hemi" would be a welcome subject. But, I think the mystery kit could be something for the altered minds thinking out of the box. But, who knows.

Think of it this way. I figure 1967 was a key year. The streakers would have 2 years streaking practice in preparation for the big Woodstock fest coming up in 69. And, think of the drugs that took effect messing up everyone's minds back at that time. Perfect time for that to happen. I bet those people will relive that again if they could.

I bet people would freak out if they saw a sreaker.
