The 1:1 was a fine and fun car by all standards - its downfall, IMO, was that it didn't stand out enough amongst the other Pontiac offerings ( in es. , it appeared to look like nothing more than a two door Grand Am ). I'll have to add one of those reissues to my collection. Sometimes I wonder if Australian sales would support adding Holden parts ( front facia, cockpit etc.. ) It was a neat car and have a soft spot for Holden. 1

Wonder if Round2 will be able to restore the original stock Ford artillery wheels (with the correct detailing) to the kit...? 1

Highly unlikely IMHO. Meanwhile, you can actually get perfect reproductions of these wheels - the originals that were only present in flawless form in the very earliest production of the c.1961 release of the AMT Trophy Series 1936 Ford - from Norm Veber at Replicas and Miniatures of Maryland (and as shown on the cover of the current issue of the magazine covering all forms of scale modeling)....TB

I just really appreciate it when Round2 improves-by-restoring the older AMT/MPC kits. They've been doing so for the last decade and I will continue to cheer them on and $upport them. Also thanks for directing us to Norm Veber's great work at R&MofM. The photo I used above is, I believe, one of his recent products (P-195). I've old just learned of this item yesterday since my R&MofM catalog is a few years old. Highly recommended! [Your previous Forum posting on the subject: Edited October 7 by blizzy63
stavanzer Posted October 8 Posted October 8 Okay, I want some. Does anybody know where I can find a parts list for him? I'm going to purchase some more stuff besides the resin Wheels. I had a catalog, but it is at least 15 years old. Thanks!

Rob Hall Posted Saturday at 03:26 PM Posted Saturday at 03:26 PM Saw some upcoming AMT stuff (4th qtr, next year)—most of which I’ve seen at other shows—at the Plastic Undercover show outside Akron this morning. Included were a couple I hadn’t heard of yet—‘63 Pontiac LeMans convertible, ‘69 Mustang ‘John Wick’—based off the MPC ‘69 with some new parts. The upcoming ‘32 Ford Tudor were among those on display, with previously shown prototypes like the ‘72 Duster, Charger Hellcat widebody, etc. Of course, I left my phone in the car
