Hang in there guys. I'm in Cincinnati and the mail has not been delivered to my street 4 out of the last 9 days. I could give my opinion on why this is happening but...........

Minor correction noted here...(at least to my knowledge). 

In the review of the new '68 Coronet R/T in MCM #218, there are a couple of sentences expressing some displeasure over the standard wheel moldings in the kit. 

These are not intended to be Magnum 500's as is suggested in the review. 

Instead they are very accurate reproductions of the 1968 model year Coronet R/T "mag type wheel covers" (per the 1/1 Dodge brochures), not the optional Magnum 500 wheels.  These same "Mag Type Wheel Covers" were also in the original 1968 MPC Coronet R/T annual kit.   Pretty cool choice, too, as the only other 1/25th kit with these wheel covers was the Revell 1968/1969 Dodge Dart GTS kits.  In 1/1 they were widely seen on Darts, Coronets, and even Chargers/Challengers in 1968/69/70...   

FYI only...TB

Unfortunately, you missed the 218 cut-off. Your first issue will be 219.

They'll be available from our resellers, or from us if we're at a show. At this point, we aren't directly filling back issue orders.

I'd take a look at the post above yours if you have concerns.
