I can't speak for how rare if at all the others are . But when I found the Turbine car ( probablly 5 or 6 years ago ) . I had never seen one before . Since then I've seen several of them . And they don't seem to bring big money ,, I have less than $30 in mine. And I was pleasently suprised when it showed up and it worked. I think there are some AM music stations,,,,,but It's mostly talk radio and sports. It looks nice in my case next to my original Turbine car promo

or one that work for both the Revell 1970 and the Johan 1971 Cuda kits

Pretty please ?

I'de be in for several

I have the Chrysler Turbine Car. And it works

I think it's cool if they are considering a re-release. I would buy one if just for the cool factor But IMO, I think a much better looking ,,aka,,, more accurate build can be done with a resin ( or modified plastic ) body and a polar lights chassis .

Very well done. One of my favorite cars of the period . I was pleasently suprised when this kit was released . as the chassis is this particular car only.

All the Polar Lights funnycar kits chassis are the same . That said they are pretty straight forward just pay close attention to the instructions. As far as keeping it straight , I use a metal sliding ruler with 2 sliders on it to keep everything straight and true side to side. Sorry, I don't have any in process pictures of any I've built

I have the add that this picture is in,( no idea where right now ) and IMO, the grille and ft valance are airbrushed on. In print something just doesn't look right . And this is the only picture I have ever seen of the 1971 car with the sixpack style scoop. So in my gut I think it is the 1970 car just airbrushed to show the all new 1971 ft end

The american buying public did. The average buying John Q public could care less with how long it's going to last. The problem today is the average buying public wants it now and at the cheapest costs possibile. As opposed to our parents generation. Back then we wanted to know how good was it and long it was going to last . NOT how cheap is it and how fast can we get it . There for to compete the average manufacturer has to look at ways to compete with overseas manufacturing costs. To do so on the world stage business's have to monitor overhead to remain competitive. In some cases ( not all by any means ) that requires they look at off shore manufacturing.

Based on whats writen here, It appears to be more a case of paying for an item and never getting it ,,,, more so than just slow shipping.

I'm told if your stare at this picture long enough 2 corvettes appear in the foreground.

Cool project. I'l have to keep an eye on this build. That said, I have been looking ( casually ) for one of these in 1.25th scale for another future project

Agreed, If none of the companies come out with anything new that I want/ need in the next 10 years ,,I am good. Although I am glad to see someone finally doing a 1965 Plymouth B body and will definitly get a few for the shelf

If it's a Missing Link item, you can be assured it's a nice piece. I've got several items from them and not once have I been dis-appointed

What I ordered last year, I received in a very timely fashion, ( Other than one sheet ,,,I have not used any of them as of yet ) The one I did use was very nice,,just kind of fragile . But,,,I've read there were several customers that got nothing . so maybe procede with caution.

Me personally, I would not add a partial charge unless I know for a fact it's low on freon

I am glad to see this kit back on the shelves as I think it's one of AMT's better efforts and should sell well ,,,,,,,but the lack of pre-plated rims and the decal error makes it a bit dis-appointing to me.( good thing I have the Fred cady sheet as well ) box art is cool though and I may buy one just for that. Between all the previous variants I have probably close to a dozen on the shelf as it is.

The carb in the AMT 1971 Duster is pretty nice. Actually I am using the entire engine,,, air cleaner down in an MPC 1970 Challenger rebuild.

Problem with that is the Dart has a spare tire well and the A body only style gas tank, that looks nothing like the same area as a 1968-70 B body

I've got several of the sliding drawer screw bins from Home Depot. A couple with all large drawers and one with all small drawers for smaller parts. Plus I've got maybe a dozen or so of the large plastic bins with the snap on lids(like Draggon shown above ) I use for partial kits and/or builups that I don't have a box for .

Thats was funny

I guess I was one of the lucky ones, I ordered several items when they had an Ebay store,,got everything I ordered in less than a week ( that was several years ago though ,,and still haven't used any of it) As far as the JJ nova I would just make my own

So the box art shows it has chrome reverese wheels,,yet none are included in the kit ?
