I got that Porsche kit from ebay. Won part of a 4 kit sale. THe lot went for something like $40 for all 4. So I got it at a good deal. So try ebay for them. The kit isn't junk from the parts. But I haven't built it, so I cannot give it a good review or bad.

Have a look on modelexpress.net, if Dennis has the kits in stock he typically lists the number of parts in the kit.

I read a review of the Quaker State car in a UK magazine some time ago. I believe they had some problems with the engine cowling fit, so they just left it off and detailed the engine.

Seems like I assembled a K-Mart car WAY back when. If I remember correctly it had pretty decent detail. That was before I truely learned to appreciate a good model kit.
