• Video.....Five of the worst flops in drag racing history. *NM* *LINK*
  • Little known fact - the AMT "Hemi Under Glass" kit is in actuality a near perfect replica of the McEwen funny car shown in this video, not the true 1/1 scale Hemi Under Glass. The AMT '66 vs. McEwen'65 'cuda body and decals are rhe only notable differences! TB *NM*
    • Slixx has the McEwen decal back in the catalog. *NM*
      • Gonna need those... *NM*
    • Tim, was the MPC HUG "Correct" in terms of engine orientation, etc? *NM*
      • MPC kit was a lot closer as the chassis, etc were specifically tooled for it *NM*
        • To confirm - this was in the LA Dart reissue and the RC re release kit, correct? *NM*
          • The HUG chassis plate and interior were reused, but little else as the engine was relocated *NM*
            • Okay, I remember that now...
  • Great Morning. *NM*
  • Flops but fantastic *NM*
  • I'm seeing the origins of three car kits in those five cars...
    • We can widen that net to some others - Bill Coon '57 T-Bird AA/MSP = Here Come De Judge...
