Hello!

Really nice models - although the "beauty" of the originals is disputable... One thing for sure - when I was about 10 years old, anybody who was driving something like that in Poland didn't have a problem taking the nicest girls for a ride!

Would be cool to look at them a littl closer. How about an undercarriage shots - those are front wheel drive, right? Thanks for sharing and have a nice day

Paweł

Nice.

To add to TB's front wheel drive, GM used the drivetrain from them in a motorhome from  '73 to '78.  455 cid to '77 and 403 cid in '78.  Made in 23 and 26 footers.  They are classics now and have a cult following.  Ahead of their time back then.

I remember these cars growing up. You did a great job on both cars.
