In Response To: The Atlantis Fiat kit might be the way to go if one is looking to detail it. The Fiat has spare motors, wheels, driveline and chassis parts. It's basically a collection of parts packs. about the only thing you'd need is another set of slicks as the Fiat only has one pair. ()

Need to also snag a few of the new Skorpion Stude (ex- Miss Deal ) there are a ton of parts in that kit that can go to projects, esp. the Hemi.

Hoping to see the drag boat one of these days - hint, hint, hint. Mebbe on a trailer behind a revived Newport convert?

What is the origin of the Atlantis "Fireball Dragster"? Aurora, Monogram, Revell, none of the above? TIA *NM*
- IIRC, it's the Monogram "The Dragster" kit from the 60s *NM*
- Monogram "Forty-niner." Pretty nice kit for 49 cents. *NM*
- OK, thanks, yeah I think its cool, but I paid a bit more than .49 cents for mine.... : ) *NM*
- Here's the Monogram original.---PICS----
- Scales in fairly close to 1/25, making it ripe for enhancement
  - Thanks for the tip on the gopher parts, that's good to know. I kind of like it the way it is, but was wondering about improving the wheels. *NM*
    - I swapped a set of dragster wire wheels and the motor from the Tony Nancy kit for my build. *NM* *PIC*
      - I like it! I noticed the decals are included to do the Californian , The wheels and the headers...... *PIC*
