Look what followed me home from the track last night.

We had our first race of the season yesterday so I didn't get to go to CMS for the AutoFair. But I really didn't mind because I wound up with this little gem that CrazyRay78 brought me.

After I got it unloaded I gave it a good cleaning and checked all the fluids so she'd be ready to cruise today.

It fits me like a tailored suit and is the first Cyclone in my yard since I got rid of my '66 thirty years ago. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for those "messengers of VROOM" and a place in my driveway.

I had to use flill flash to even out the exposure and balance the gleam coming off briar eatin' grin but it made for a pretty neat shot after all. Anybody up forl a cruise?

That's a wicked-cool car, doolan! That IS a model, right?!

Nice job on it! I've not seen one of those built up--they're kinda rare, aren't they?

Hey Doog, how ya been? It's one of the Georgia Marketing 1/24 die casts and it's got everything from white lettered tires to a keychain with keys in the ignition!  The guy I got mine from is sending me the mate to it (a white and red Cale Yarborough Special) in a week or so and I'll get some pics on here when it come in. The only plastic model of that type Cyclone is the Polar Lights Nascar race version.
