The level of detail on this car is incredible. It's made by Highway 61.

actually the real car was kind of a joke gone to far between hurst and gm, it ran two blown alcohol 455's, to all four wheels, with a tad under 3k horse (as far as i remember), there was an interview with one of it's driver's, i remember: "All that power slapped into that car, most of the time you never really knew which way it was gonna go."

Sure, not a problem. I think that once Igor get's back and I create the Diecast Gallery, you all will see what I have and I will try my best to provide commentaries to each.:D

which was a front wheel drive behemoth from the late '60s,that came
