These are the only pics I have. The car may be redone later as it's started to fall apart. I also have the topless parade car and another one in red plastic that appears to be the same tooling but is packaged by a different company. My model is modified to suit what I found to be more realistic with what little pics there were of this car at the time. The engine was a chrome plated lump that I traded out for a Ford engine out of the Otaki T-Bird kit. The chassis was modified with chassis parts from a 1/20th scale GMC pick up truck from Lindberg to solve the toylike problems of the kit chassis. gaping holes from a previous motorized chassis were filled in.

the weirdest kit in my stash as of today, just picked this one up at my local hobby club......

If you ever want to sell that, send me a PM B)

I have been looking for that kit for years, seen it on ebay a couple of times and it went for way more money than I was able to pay.

Maby not so weird,but weirdest in my stash. Found the picture on google.

I have quite a lot of the Heller 1:43 kits including the CX, very nice kits. They are simple but build up great. I'm only missing a few of them and the one that I really look for is the Alfasud.

Some of the others are such gems as the Leyland Princess, Rover SD1, Renault 30, Peugeot 403, Peugeot 604 and Volkswagen K70.

I think most people know what my weirdest kit is. I see it being outclassed by the amoeba though, so I must search for that one now.
