Miscellaneous Mopar Madness *PICS*
Odd to think that those kids posing with that GTX convertible are probably in their 70s now.... *NM*
I really like that green GTX with the green strip... that looks nice. *NM*
Thanks for the pics. Good stuff. *NM*
Interesting the pic of the 66 police car,that 4dr Plymouth was sold in OZ as a 66 Dodge Phoenix,last use of the 318 Poly in Oz & we only got 4dr sedans like that Plymouth,my 1st car kit was a JoHan 66 Plymouth Convert,oh how I wish those 60's JoHan kits could be reissued. *NM*
They can with cloning, but they want to protect the collectors market. *NM*
IMHO, if the business case were there, and if somebody were willing and able to take a chance that they could lose money on the venture, it could happen. TBH, I don't think anybody in the business cares about collector value. *NM*
The only reason there were kits - ChryCo paid them to make the promos
I know I'm probably in the minority here but that Aspen is way cool! *NM*
Sure is! Pure '80s customization. *NM*
Me too. *NM*
Bill, never heard of "Fargo." Aftermarket body on Mopar chassis? *NM*
Fargos are rebadged Dodges, built by Chrysler Corp. Nothing aftermarket about them. *NM*

Fargo, along with De Soto, was used in South America and in Europe and Middle East. The Fargo name was used in Turkey into the 1980s. *NM*
