I ordered this last week and received notification that it was shipped today. The website mentioned that it came out 8/7/2006 but it was backordered for a brief time.
I owned one of the 1978 Dodge Challengers back in the day that was based on this car. Never thought I would see a model of it. Here's a pic from a vintage Dodge advertisement with the two toned silver and charcoal car that got me through five years of college.

I'll post pics of the contents after I get it if anyone is interested.

Cool! I like to see cars that few people remember.
Good luck converting it to US-specs, shouldn't be too hard (judging by the pics).
Would love to see it finished.

I'm pretty sure it's a reissue, but I haven't seen one of them in forever. I really thought they were cool looking cars "back in the day".
Where'd you find it? HLJ doesn't seem to carry it.

It says it's backordered and did so last week when I ordered mine. I got notification that mine shipped on Monday.
