Kits they never issued- but should have

I thought this subject was for kits shown and or announced that never made the light of day.

Everybody has one- a list of models never released, not released in a scale you build, or only as something so inaccurate as to be useless.

That's another thread - titled "Ghost Kits - Shown But Never Released".

Anyone mention the Bill Thomas Cheetah???.... In 1/25 scale???... I do have this old Aurora HO slot car that I built with all the vintage speed goodies... I just wish we had a cool model of one....

There is at least one or two resin ones but may be hard to find as well as expensive.

And Windowsill. The 57’s have straight windowsills, the 55 is slanted, incorrect. Same cab, unsure if they included correct cabs in 55 later issues. I put 57 cabs on my 55’s. 

They did fix the windowsills, after the initial run of the Cameo kit.  Later issues of the Cameo and the '55 Stepside "Street Machine" had straight windowsills. I have one corrected and one uncorrected Cameo kit.  The uncorrected kit will be used under an AAM resin '55 Chevy panel truck, one of these centuries...

* 98+ Trans am variants - 30th Anniversary white with blue stripes and blue wheels, Yellow Collector Edition

Really! Far and away the best looking of the modern Chargers and not so much as a diecast.
