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

There must be 20ft of hose and wires in there !!
What scale is it ??

1:18. Lots of detail.

WTF is he doing with a huge power plant in the back of that beast.
Motor for forward and reverse ;)

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."

hey DVS, could you do an in depth thread about your AAR cuda soon because i think thats the next model i'm going to build.
ps i love your commentary after each picture :hehe:

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

The Hurst Old's used two drivetrains (one turned around backwards)from the Oldsmobile Toronado
which was a front wheel drive behemoth from the late '60s,that came
standard with a 455 cu. in. V8 motor !
