This model was created using an existing AWB model produced by Supercar Collectibles (supercar1.com).  I used their existing Dave Strickler model, removed the roof, and added a roof from a 1965 Plymouth sedan.  I made the decals using Photoshop.  Now, my model is unique but won't be for very long.  Recently, Supercar Collectibles announced they are producing the model in 1:18 scale and they're taking pre-orders.

Love the whole thing of course, but you got the pillars blended perfectly, great moon tank location, even the way you got the rear slicks as far forward as possible.

I would really, really like to see some engine and interior pics.

Great job.

Thanks for the compliments.  However, to be fair I think you're giving me a bit more credit than is due.  

It's important to understand that my Yankee Peddler was made from the basic Dave Strickler AWB Dodge.  So the AWB treatment, interior, and engine compartment are standard from the original car and received zero modification from my efforts.  My work was making the sedan from a hardtop, paint, decals, headlamps, and fuel tank.  I do have some AWB cars that I've done like the Butch Leal car.  I'm posting that today.  ;)

BTW, the original Dave Strickler model was produced by Supercar Collectibles at supercar1.com.  They recently announced they are producing the Yankee Peddler model and are taking pre-orders.
