Hey guys, I might need some air support after this one.

I whipped this up sort of as an application to do some artwork for a guy who is leasing some molds and doing private run kits. You know, snip out a picture here and there, replace them and add some new copy. Hey, at least it's a real Lindberg tear sheet, even if it has been "altered" a smidgen. I even put the disclaimer on it just like I should but you know how impulsive some of those ol' car modelers are. LOL Think maybe the April 1st release date will tip'em off? Just in case though you might better warm up an A-10 for top cover and one of them little egg shaped helicopters in case the villagers get here with their torches before I get the Ford fueled and ready. LOL   Hey, at least I did build everything in the pics. That should count for something, right?

Breaking news from Lindberg- New Kit Announcement

Hard on the heels of the announcement of the Paul Goldsmith '64 Plymouth comes news of a second release. 1964 Daytona 500 runner up Jimmy Pardue's Plymouth stock car is to be kitted for the first time. Well liked by fans and other drivers alike, "Gentle Jimmy" Pardue, with the "Car 54, where are you" license plate from the popular TV series of the same name on his race car, was poised to break out as one of the new stars in '64.

His career was cut short by a crash during tire tests at Charlotte Motor Speedway only a couple of weeks before Darlington's famed Southern 500, a race that Jimmy was favored to win. This kit depicts his Daytona car  in the early season white livery and includes all the markings to replicate his ride in the 500. As with the earlier Richard Petty and Paul Goldsmith Plymouth kits this one is jam packed with details and all the special Mopar racing parts to build real Hemi Hummer. Look for it wherever models are sold.

Release date 4-1-09

Disclaimer- Due to the fact that this is a total fabrication, scheduling, licensing and other variables may affect the availiblity of this kit.
