American cars

suiteR · 09-30-2003, 12:35 PM

I am not too familiar with classic American cars...
May I ask the make & model of the following cars and any 1/24 or 1/25 kit available? Where can I order? Pls advise.
Tks!

1. The yellow convertible Don Johnson drives in the series namely Nashbridge

2. The bright green hardtop appear in FASTLANE.

1) '71 Cuda? Don't know the accuracy of the kit, though.

Attached pic is the same as above.

the 71 Cuda is VERY accurate, its a very well done kit, based on the Revell 71 hardtop kit,

I guess this is the car you want from fastlane, its a 69 GTX, and your in luck, AMT has a very well done 69 GTX kit they just reissued, the color appears to be sublime green

gasman03 · 09-30-2003, 02:08 PM

here's the kit you'd want to duplicate it

you can get both these kits from Hobby Heaven, www.modelcarkits.com

Hey, great that you know "Fastlane". It's on the German TV right now and I have a question.

In "Ryde or Die", Van and Deaq drive a great muscle car in the end, when they follow Billy and Gavin in a SUV. Which muscle car is that?

It's hard to find them in Canada??

I'm just tossing around some ideas for a makeover of my 70 Roadrunner, dragcar, lowrider? I can't decide, I'll put up a topic in the other forum.
