espo Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 There were both 1:1 and the 1/25th plastic also. I never used the decals on a build but I think I still have the decal sheet somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Geez. To think I lived through that era as a young adult and (thankfully) never knew those existed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stitchdup Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I kinda like the look of some of them, mstly the more muted colours than the in your face colours and with the matching interior it kinda works, but then i grew up seeing interiors like that in bugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those weren't seen very often, as the dealers that got them out of the sales bank usually dyed the tops a solid color to move them off of the lot...

Carmak Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 In the early 80's there was a 69 pale yellow Barracuda coupe with the yellow/white/black mod top and interior I would see every morning on my paper route near the campus of the University of Iowa. Was already fairly rusty, the seats were torn up and the top was pulling. I remember it as I was into Mopars as a young teen and I had never seen a mod top before. I think it was even a slant 6 as there were not engine call outs on the car anywhere and even 273 and 318 cars typically got a small "V" emblem.
