I posted this a few years ago, but didn't disclose that it was a model at first. Had a few guys going for just a bit. Consensus was that I was an A$$ for posting.

I still have it.

That’s a great model, and prank!

He didn't ask to buy it. He asked if he could HAVE it; so... no.

I had this one as a kid. Also had the Richard Petty model. One day I took the instamatic camera and the two cars outside and simulated a crash/fire with the two cars.

I still do have the pics somewhere to prove it

I built almost all of those MPC stock car kits back in the mid '70s starting with the 21 Mercury Purolator Cyclone. They had the same frames and cages, I think.

Here's one from about 1972-73 when I was ten-eleven. I was a Shelby GT350 nut and the only Mustang fastback I could get my hands on was the old Aurora 32nd scale kit. I used wheels and decals from the IMC Torino Cobra kit and side scoops from an incomplete AMT '68 GT500 grafted on with household spackling paste! I mixed the blue and did my best to tape the lines with regular masking tape. Can't remember where I got the hood scoop. It had been in storage (with all of my old builds) for over 30 years until 2015.

I've had these for almost 30 years. The model paints are from 1971 when I started to build them at 11 years old. Notice the miss print 429. To bad the miss print isn't worth what a miss printed coin would be. Waiting for retirement to build them. If it ever comes. LOL.
