Man this thing is sweet! Reminds me of my old '62 galaxie but with far less miles and rust! It comes with one finned brake drum{where's my resin casting stuff at?!} The goodies that come with this thing are great...mile long skirts, ragtop boot even though it's molded as a coupe, extra hubcaps and grill with headlights, hood and trunk scoops...the only bummer is the fixed front wheels like the promo cars were...this baby is Old School modeling! I can see some stretching of the rear fenders{roughly 1/4"} chop the top right off, lower it. Next one I want is the '60 starliner!
