Nice job! It's good to see one of these and see it done right. I stole, uh, I mean copied your pictures for my reference morgue.

I did a little research and found that it was designed (and maybe built for real) by Harry Bradley (just like it says on the box). He was a well known custom car designer in the 60's. He designed the Deora, the 2nd generation Weinermobile, and did a lot of work for Hot Wheels.

Yikes! That is a nice looking build of a troublesome kit of an ugly car!
Kudos to you for the nice build.

Thanks Dan???  I hear ya brother!! Not sure what was going on with the styling. Underneath that is a Johan olds tornado. I compared all the parts to my johan kits I have. I guess MPC made a deal with them to supply parts. I have never had a kit kick my butt like this one did! Believe me if it was mine and not my friend's it would of died a horrible death!! ;D -Louie |
