heard the same rumor about a year or so ago, seem to remember Salvinos even hinting at i t on the old Sat morning youtube show they used to do (maybe still do)

In Response To: Not sure if I read this somewhere or if it was mentioned here or I simply dreamed it- was/is there talk of an all-new tool (drag) pro stock kit, possibly from Salvino's? Not the Maverick from Moebius or the R2 S&M Duster. *NM* ()

But I have not heard anythng about it since the Indycars got released, at this point I'm convinced it was little more than a rumor.

They were said to be doing the Nascar Plymouth Superbird too, but nothing on that for sometime.

I'm just speculating, but I kind of think the Pro Stock rumors grew legs when they acquired the old Monogram Nascar tooling and some people may have been guessing they got the Drag car tooling as well. I don't have any idea where that tooling is, but it doesn't seem to be with them, though Atlantis clearly has the Funny car tooling as the Prudhomme and upcoming Miller High life Firebird would suggest.

What ever the case, I'm not holding my breath on a current Pro Stock, Funny car, or top fuel car.....as much as I'd like to see one, I'm not sure that drag racing moves the needle any more.

Like I said, all of this is speculation

- Doubt Salvinos.......they had a Superbird, Daytona in process.....ran into issues with them and lost/ lapsed the FORD license so all that tooling is idle......

  - Who has Revell or Monogram drag car tooling today would hinge on where the most recent issue was produced. Overseas = Revell, USA = possibly Atlantis *NM*
