    I was guessing shoebox. Lot of stuff I would have not done (Ben Hur spinners would be the first to go) but can you imagine the fun driving it through town.

    If the skirts get any shorter
    and the breezes don't behave,
    There'll be two more cheeks to powder
    and another place to shave. :rolleyes::D

    Wow, that's amazing! It wasn't till I looked at the second picture and then back at the first before it dawned on me that that wasn't a real girl leaning on the Sahara. lol Love looking at model displays like that . The detailing on each car is superb . That even looks like George standing there. I wonder if Jim Mc Neil ever thought of restoring the Hirohata Merc to that version, since that is how he bought and drove it. Larry
