Hemi Billboard on Challenger
« on: September 28, 2008 - 03:26:40 PM »
Found a model of a 70 Challenger and It has a Hemi Billboard on the side.  I do not remember that being an option............

   That's the great thing about doing models. You can see how an idea will look like --- good or bad--- with out butchering up the real thing.  And if it's bad you can just blow it up.    :lol:

My guess is the company that made the model didn't do their homework.   :screwy:

The reason I thought this is because I have seen several model cars from Asian companies that are very incorrect as far as details go. I have two models that the description on the box describes the totally wrong year drivetrain for that vehicle!!

I like it when you see an obvious mistake, I.E. the "68 Cuda" RC car that's really a 71.  R$ight on the package is the Chrysler authorization.  I've seen it more now that the Germans bought them out.

Must be the same company that made the "1970 and 2008" Challenger poster.
The Challenger's a 1974 model. That poster is all over the net too lol, quite a blunder.
