I sent him a photo pack of all angles and this is what he did, notice even the roll bar and Caltracs are visible Check it out: http://members.boardhost.com/pscaracing1/msg/1304127136.html

I nearly picked up a plastic '66 Cyclone when we had that car....these were promotional items the dealers got , and they used to be around 100.00 some 20 years after the model year. I wish I would have gotten it now......luxury of hind sight etc. etc. But for a replica of the real McCoy , I'd say 200 is more than fair. Now...........to track down a '65 Dart GT kit.

The guy has a lot of kits, so if you are interested just go to the PSCA site and leave him a post or PM me and I'll do it for you since I think you might need to be a member to post there. Tom

The 65 Dart GT will probably have to be a resin kit, as I don't recall a plastic offering. If anyone does want to do their car, check with me as I've got a couple hundred Mopar kits I'd be glad to part with without the collector sticker shock. When you 25 you're gonna build them all, now, at 55, ain't gonna happen. If You Can't Be Good, At Least Be Colorful

But seriously your build was pretty straight forward... No CRAZY graphics or odd wheels or anything out of the ordinary. Still, a VERY nice built model kit.

This is a resin body 64 as the 64 Dodge models had not come out yet when I built this one. http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j160/jcailey/DSC01138.jpg Fastest 300

Plastic models of a 64 Dodge have been available since at least the early seventies. The Jo-Han kit has been around forever and the Lindbergh for around ten years.

The Jo-Han kits were of a Polara ( different roof line than the 330 ) and the Lindberg kit were - bad ( poor scale). The "Color Me Gone" kit is a newer Revell kit. http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j160/jcailey/DSC01181.jpg Fastest 300
