[chryslerjunkandstuff]

I mean, THIS one..

It will likely be the ONLY sixties Pace Car in my Indy Pace Car collection that I will never be able to get..

Short of Round2 doing their resurrection magick and re-issuing it someday..  

[Matt Bacon]

Mark Donohue’s Javelin AMX. Don’t really mind if it’s a Jo-Han or AMT box…

JO-HAN 1962 Chrysler 300

Over the last 25 years, I've been able to pretty much find most everything that I might consider a grail.  Still have a list of old kits that I wouldn't mind acquiring, mostly Johan late 60s AMCs, a few early 70s MPCs.

Airfix Morris Marina. I did win a bid on ebay a few months back. The seller didn't know what he had and I got it for £30, but he refunded me soon after and came up with the most ridiculous excuses as to why. He was obviously offered a lot more by someone and just stopped responding to my messages. Incredibly frustrating but happens to me a lot. I was surprised I got those annual Chargers the other week for what I paid for them, I was actually expecting to be gazumped on those too but for once didn't happen.

Airfix missed their chance to release the Top Gear Marina with Piano gift set...

MPC ‘71 Demon. Hopefully Round2 can perform some fancy laser-scan, new tool magic and solve the problem for me.

I have Two 

The Monogram "Rattler"

and the " Haulin Hearse" by Jo-Han.

The object of this exercise is to pick one. I'm sure we all have several.

Mine would be the original AMT 1964 issue of the Pontiac Tempest GTO.

This one.  I saw it run at Indy time trials in 1967 and it made an impression.  I butchered one as a kid and have obtained a couple of glue bombs lately but I would love a mint unbuilt one.

I had a bid in on one of these along with another kit on an on-line auction but got outbid. It wasn't Ebay.

This one used to be my "holy grail" but since I was able to find a vintage kit 2 or so years ago, I guess I'm on to another one.

 

[Classicgas]

The new ICM 1/35 Skycrane.

[Reegs]

Monogram Yellowjacket

[Dragonhawk1066]

I would have to say the MPC 1/16 Dodge Charger Street Machine, either edition, would have to be my Holy Grail kit.
