5 model cars or trucks you wish were made.

[Nxr]

1) Oldsmobile 88 or 98 from 1971-73 with the odd headlight position. Also the same car from 1959 would make a great kit as well.

2) 1958-1960 Mercury Montclair 4 door. I mean seriously look at those tail lights, looks like a BMF heaven.

3) Buick Invicta from 1959, or honestly any 1958, 59, 60 Buicks, i find them so beautiful and so important in the classic car field yet they were never kitted aside from very expensive promo's, but since this is a kit thread i won't include promos as an alternative, since they are not kits.

4) AMC Ambassador 4 door of any year, rare car, very rare.

5) Chrysler New Yorker/300/Newport from 1974-1978, i want so many of these to make a fleet and one to make a weathered and beaten car from the show " trailer park boys" to replicate ricky's dreaded new yorker.

Okay i know this is more than five but i couldn't resist because i think that Canadian cars need a special place in the model world, they have very interesting varieties there and i would love to see more Canadian based classics.

6) Acadian Beaumont, 1969

7) Acadian Canso, 1967

8) Meteor Rideau ( any year or generation, great car)

9) Meteor Montcalm ( any year)

10) 1967 Pontiac Laurentian

They were kitted...I have the '59 and '60 ht and convertible kits. The '58 Roadmaster was also kitted, but I don't have it.
