  1. But is does have an opening deck lid, well thats what the mocked up one had at the Japanese hobby show a few months back
  2. Negative, RPM (Richard Petty Motorsports) is in the Ford camp, and has been for the last three years, and get their engines and chassis's from Roush Fenway racing
  3. There are two confirmed NASCAR Sprint cup teams that did go to dodge in the early part of the year, but according to the teams, dodge never got back with the teams
  4. That might very well be a test unit, with all the new PPV's coming out, you are most likely going to see departments with all different makes being tested before they decide Here is what Newport PD old markings looked liked, wonder if this is one of units destroyed
  5. That is about the dumbest thing I have read so far Not saying this is the main reason, but what all that I have read about Dodge packing up and leaving is, they were being greedy and wanted a top teir team, there were two confirm teams that went to dodge with interest of switching to them in 2013 , and a third un confirm team. It is also being reported that they might return in 2014. Here is one thing to consider about Dodge, they do not provide factory support like Ford, Chevy, Toyota does, they do provide some , but its very little, so that was on reason why they had problems with getting the top level teams to run Dodge Dodge did not support the any of the teams in the Nationwide series, or in the truck series You still might see a Dodge on the track next year, per NASCAR rules, teams can run a make/model for three years after said make/model leave the sport. There are company's build dodge engines, and the front clip/rear clip, hood/ deck lid are stamped and teams can get those.
  6. Depending on where the city/county gets there vehicle's from, they still could get more CVPI's, just because Ford stopped making them, does not mean that they can not still be bought. A lot of states/county/citys have been stock piling them, so it just all depends if there are any CVPI in fleet inventory
  7. I am sure they might work a little bit, but in order for them to use the spike strips, oh I dont know, I think the officers would have to be OUTSIDE first so they could use them The police station is in a old bank building
  8. I was just curious so I looked up the value, and going by what kelly blue book says, the car is worth $12,002 , thats a long way from $69,900
  9. Missed you at the last few meetings, are going to this months meeting?
  10. I agree what has already been said, and my thought when I read 2009 Pontiac Solstice, was really, are you serious?
  11. Mustangs are not consider a super car by anyone on this planet, its not, just a fact, its a sports car, period. The Ford GT, yes , that could be considered a super car.
  12. Very nice job
  13. Working on the chassis , and body in primer and the interior and worked on the brakes
  14. I think you enjoy pointing out my spelling mistakes
  15. Just guessing , but it may not take that much work to turn it into a street version, it just depends on whats in the kit
  16. I have to agree with Dale, I really like Krylon white paint, that is the only color I will use on a body now.
  17. This is on my list to get, looking forward to seeing more pics of the kit, or has Jermey Clarkson calls it, the fax machine
  18. I like it too You would think that after all this time, I would have figured out what shelby kit I wanted to do next, but nope
  19. Looking good, cant wait to see this bad boy finished, everytime I see this kit, I want to get it
  20. Starting on this one, Fujimi Lamborgini Gallado sportec kit, its a basic kit, it has some photo ech parts and different wheels (I bought because of the wheels ). As for the color, I am thinking either yellow or blue, not sure yet.
  21. I guess it take a lot times being said over and over and over , people should just take a moment to read the rules
  22. I forgot about the dual shocks, its been awhile since I built and older NASCAR kit Here is how its looking right now with the decals , and here you can see where the decals started cracking
