Description
TV Tommy's tire-smoking terror!

Tommy Ivo was the first to break the nine second mark in the quarter mile with a twin engine rail dragster. However, he wasn't content with being an ordinary drag racer. He wanted to be, so "TV Tommy" as he became known, added two additional engines onto his twin-engine dragster to create the "Showboat". While Tommy was never able to race the "Showboat", his demonstration runs roused crowds across the country. Kit features fully painted Tommy Ivo figure, four complete engine assemblies, and tube frame with separate body panels.

Pretty cool model. My dad build this model, when it was first released. I still have it, with the majority of his builds. Would be cool to build one. the 4 Nailheads look awesome, but at the same time, the thought of wirering same 4 engines is rather daunting. Thanks for the heads up Richard.
