Cool little car! I like the suttle black outs like the rear end and blind spots. Looks like a neat little vintage ride.

Those are some nice scores there Greg, those old Johan's are always nice to see.

Hey thanks!

Yes, those blackout panels are the European version of the muscle car craze.

Very cool looking car, I wish they made a model kit of it! I'd build a couple of them.

I toyed with the idea of altering a Doyusha Honda 1300S. I bet our friends from Finland could actually do it.

The real car is right up with a BMW 02 or Alfa Giulia performance-wise. The 'Sprint' version is actually faster than both.

But contrary to them, it never got their cult-status, hence I'm afraid it will always be ignored by the model industry.

I don't know the legend behind that car, being a knuckle-dragging, V8-loving Yank, but that thing is just plain cool! I'd gladly drive it!

Neat car..I recall seeing one of these on a Top Gear episode a while back.

I have one of these in a 1:43rd scale diecast (Lledo Vanguards series) that I bought about 10 years ago in London.

Some of this was on the Christmas thread but I added to it. I also removed my other stuff from the pics so that this is model related only. Some plastic including my favorite B bodies and a cool wagon and a couple trucks. I also got some new parts tree snippers and some new brushes. Also some decal stuff I need to figure out how to use. I have the bonder and paper too.

Nice kits, Now you need at least 2 more of those Monaco kits, the building variations are endless. Missing Link has the factory stock wheel covers for those , I think they are $8 a set with shipping.

[Greg Cullinan]

I'm going to have to have a talk with USPS, those duallies were supposed to come to my house!!!

[Joe Handley]

I've been wanting to get one of these for a while now but didn't have much cash to spend on one until I got a little for Christmas and picked one as well as a spare battery up on the day after Christmas.

I tried flying it in the kitchen at home with minimal success, so I took it to work and flew it in a much larger back room we have and have gotten pretty decent with it so far for having only put about 5 flights on it!
