So, a $20 investment in a model kit cost you how much?

Then again, you can't go out for burgers in a 1/25th scale kit.

I think you have Marcus and I beat.

Very nice.

Did a little local drag racing when i was young, before i got into motorcycles.
Owned a 77' Camaro (350 w/4-spd), and a 79' Z28 (305 w/auto) neither were stock, and both stifled my financial growth.

Yeah, in my youth I was a hot rodder but at some point I couldn't afford it. Now, with the end of my life only a few years away, why not? At least I know now that these old muscle cars are going up in value.

So, starting on a 72 Torino Sport, stock car edition. I cannot find a plain 72 Torino Sport model. At some point, I may try to make another stock car edition but use a similar Ford model for interior parts.
