You should have posted `my really busy weekend` and seen if you could pass it off for the full size real thing, i`d have been fooled

Manky did say to do something like that and I did try to take photos in a way to not show it's actual size but it didn't work. We are really chuffed with it. It cost us £50, (we got a discount too) and with all the detail that has gone into it I would say it was money well spent.

We don't have that much money to throw around all the time, but we'd gone to the Mopar Nationals prepared to buy loads of bits & didn't really find anything we needed, so Taz treated herself to the model. It's so detailed it'll actually come in handy as a reference for rebuilding the real one!

Wow what a gorgeous model (and I mean the car!).  Such attention to detail.  All you need to do now is get yourself a remote control version, and start practicing with the steering!  ;D

The suspension works too. Soft & wallowy -just like the real thing. ;D
The steering wheel turns the front wheels, the gearstick moves, there's real carpet inside, seatbelts, opening headlight flaps, even a sticker inside the bootlid with instructions on how to use the jack. Cool.
