LDO Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 That looks like a Testors/Italeri Cadillac V-16 Town Car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpnuts Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 That rings a bell italeri probably as I don't ever remember buying a testors kit, never even heard of testors till recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jantrix Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I think this would make so great surf rod. Id replace the spoiler with some sort of surf board rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
