    A Dream Rod come true! Impeccable is the word. I remember first seeing it in your garage---a real stinker and now a piece of jewelry!

    And the big bonus--George finally gets his wheels back!

    Sweet, you did it again.

    I was at a friends and he collects models. He happened to have this kit. Then he pulled out a later version and I realized the body mods like the front wheel wells were also altered in the latyer kit. The kits had different names of course.

    Yes the car got changed into the tiger shark, there were many mods to be reversed, they put a hood scoop in it, closed the side roof scoops, made the rear of the car 6 inches longer, eliminated the trunk lid, changed the rear window, grille opening and front fenders. the only part of the car I did not have to weld on were the doors
