    Today I purchased a johnny lightning truck called the "Wildkat" it is a customized truck that looks maybe like a 53 F-100(?).On the back of the package it said "wildkat is a George Barris design." Does anyone have any pictures or info on this truck? I haven't been able to find anything on the internet.Thanks.

    They sell the die cast model on the Barris website, but no info about the actual car. Here is a pic of the model.
