Phuuu.....THANKS eyeryone for your words!

I am awaiting the Re-Issue too, to build it again. I dont know why, but since i search the web for the history and all stuff to find out, what difference cars they built before they give them to the people for testrides, i love the turbine more and more. Its definitely my favorite kit of all in my shelf.

The full detail kit is still in progress...takes a couple of days or more to finish. Sure, they will become a diorama too.

The question about he color i used...now, i went in a carshop in my town and there is a big shelf with spray cans. I compared it with a photo and took it. The label is "Multona", Nr. 510. Its similar to a color from Honda, Brilliantorange Code "YR576M".

This Turbines i posted when i saw the Re-Issue here in the forum. To give you a pulse, what can be done from the simple EZ-built kit

I think, it worked

I love them! All the cool aviation cues Ford was taking with their later T-birds, but in a Mopar! (Was Chrysler considered Mopar then? Oh well, you know what I mean).

Elwood Engle (SP?) who designed the 1961 T-Bird had been hired by Chrysler to pen the Turbine Car lines------thus the similarity between the two cars.

Dominik, you really hit this one out of the park! Despite the lack of engine and chassis details, yours is an absolute stunner! I've never seen the car without its vinyl roof, and I kind of like it better without it!

The full detail kit is not as hard as one would think.......if you REALLY take your time and work it through, it can build up into a very nice replica. The one I did needed a lot of flash trimming, but I was pleased with the way it turned out.
