That's pretty cool. I always loved that car and very nice build. Is that really a Revell kit?

Thanks, no it is a 1/18 diecast model

[Earl Marischal]

That's a fine piece of work.

These are a cool looking car.

I liked the original too - but you did a great job and now have a unique model.

[vintagercr]

Looks awesome!

[MrObsessive]

WOW!! TERRIFIC job on this!

This makes me miss my '65 I had many years ago............fun car! Why oh why this car has never been done in a full glue kit escapes me, but I do have AirTrax's resin of this one.

[Junkman]

Nice!

Extraordinary job, as usual.

P1800 was reasonably represented in it's day on the race track.

Exceptional work again-where are you getting the disc wheels? They look the same as on the blue Mercedes sedan- do you have a source for these and some period mud and snow tires?   I want to build a stock JEEP CJ 5

I'm guessing this one is the Revell of Germany model.  It's a beautiful car.

My first car was a 1960 PV544 Volvo, I was very lucky to be able to get a Revell model of it.  I see that somebody make a 122.  that would be a nice one to have on the shelf.

Yes they are same, again I got them from ebay and I think they are from Dodge super Bee. Also look for GMP wheels on ebay they are very similar
