I got this little 43rd scale beauty. Side trim, window trim, grille and door handles are all photo etch as well as the hood ornament!

There's no chassis detail but I don't care. Made by NEO models of Germany. The only thing I don't like is that it was advertised as a 1976 Dodge Charger but the pe badges say Cordoba. Heck they can't be seen anyway without a magnifier. B)

Does it have the " Rich Corinthian Leather " ????? :rolleyes:

nice you even got a GM in there..

Yeah and I'm going to build that GTO also. Learned to drive a 4 speed on my brothers Judge!

Just have to put some N50-15's on the back to match.

Something that will help me get set up again so I can get back to building: A DeWalt 18V "compact" drill/driver kit (driver + charger + 2 batteries. I never liked battery powered drills because they didn't have enough power or the batteries would self-destruct in a couple of months. But I borrowed my brother-in-law's DeWalt about a month ago to put up some heavy duty shelves that required #12 X 3-1/2" screws into studs. The DeWalt handled them like it was putting up a picture frame. The better news: I got the entire set (normally well over $200 for all of the parts) for $99 at Lowe's. Even better, - 10% for my military ID.

Now, I can get back to finishing the shelves, etc. in my new hobby room (when I get back up to Rocklin). And, I won't have to feel guilty for hanging on to my b.i.l.'s tools. YAY! :)

Just this minute bought this off ebay, used the 'Buy it Now' option of £9.99, that's around $15.00, i already had this one on the stash, but at that price i would have been rude not to buy it ....

Went to the scrapyard today, found a few things, left with $10 less than I went in with, I saw the same factory bumper jack go for $300 on Ebay, I'm happy, started cleaning it and It actually still works Perfectly!

Can't pick it up till Monday, but deal is done. A check and two 1:1's going bye-bye...a new 1:1 coming home.

**New 1:1 pics in "What's your 1:1 car?" thread. Figured it was more appropriate over there.
