Went to Wilkinsons Automobilia today.... it's in Vancouver and carries tons of cool die casts, books, etc. While there i found a die cast 1:18th scale Thunderbolt... $$$$$ ... exquisite detail, has driveshaft that revolves with the wheels, headers are there, seats move, steering turns... even the tiny hood pins need to be removed to open the hood. $134 Canadian plus taxes Now i'm happy, but poor! Got two of the small Muscle Machines Thunderbolts at Toys'R'Them too.

I got mine at a swap meet in Ontario and it only cost me $100 taxes included. Pretty neat model isn't it? Very well detailed. Even the glove box opens. ------------------ Steve S 64 Fairlane S/C
