Aaaaaah the 50's rides, big fins and all that chrome! I love it (even though it's a Mopar).

Not the most beautiful Mopar, but it will make a spectacular model. Definitely on my wish list.

I don't like at all that "simplified assembly" call out on the box (to be read: "there is severe lack of detail, folks!"). But it goes on my wish list as well. I love the cars without B pillar and this one looks elegant in its ugliness, especially from profile. A must have!

Mopars from the 50's always have a soft spot in muh heart. Thanks to a 59 Plymouth Fury from my childhood.

Found some images, online. Looks to be a curbside and the undercarriage is ridiculously simple. Still, with a nice paintjob, it could make an awesome display.
