The mailman delivered this totally groovy Mod Top 440 Cuda the other day!!

Nice!!

I haven't seen that before.

Few new ones...

The Mod Top is quite a stunning piece!  It is 1/18 scale and made by Highway 61/Performance Years Inc.  They have many different variations and have the car available in blue (B3 I think) too.

This is the second Mod Top car I have in my collection.  I also have a Dart in 1/18 by Highway 61 with a Mod Top.

Got this 1:24 Franklin Mint '71 hemi Challenger off ebay.  It's pretty sharp but not up the standards I have seen in other models of theirs.  The roof doesn't look right, and there are a bunch of small details incorrect like E60 tires instead of F60, and an AMC space saver spare tire.
'71's are rare to find compared to '70's though, so I am pleased to have it.

Coincidentally I was just putting the finishing touches on this model that I spent 2 months building, when I got a good deal on the Franklin mint model on ebay!

The diecast and the plastic model together.

I picked up one of those 70 Challenger R/T's last night.  that one is difficult to get a pic and make the color look as good as it does.

Rare TA,

Where did you find the Dan G. AAR Cuda?

[Super Blue 72]

Nice score on those cars guys! 

Ok, cover your eyes-non-Mopar stuff.....


Ok, so I like RC stuff, I liked the '68 Firebird XMODS car but I got a good deal on Ebay.  Weird, used stuff, a piece here and a piece there but together I got the Firebird kit that I wanted plus extra, Mustang body and body kit, Corvette bodies and body kit and a bunch of rims.  The rims on the firebird and redline tires are unique to the Firebird XMODS kit but I got a set plus extra rims and redline tires.  Also extra black wall tires and drag slicks. 

Already put in a metal bearing kit, makes a big difference.  Mustang will get some body work, although it looks like a street racer right now, I kinda like it as is.  Plans are either for a Bullitt Mustang (body kit comes with the plain grill that is on the car.) or else a '65 Shelby Mustang (Body kit comes with a front fascia that mimics the Shelby Mustang front fascia.)  The Firebird body has already been stripped of the stickers and buffed up nice and clean to stock form. 

Oh yeah, I got everything for $15 and change.
