thanks,thats just what i'm looking for.i had to pick up a lot of soda bottles to buy one of those models back then lol .

How much did we get for those bottles? A penny, or a nickel each? You hit it big time if you found the large bottles. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Check Tom Daniels site for box art. Not Lindberg, but some wild stuff.

I have always loved that artwork by the late Al Borst of AMT. I built this pair of Deuces as a tribute to him.

I have a ton of box art photos on my website.
