classic cars
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, June 4, 2003 12:54 PM
I have a cousin who lives in the wilds of Gander, Newfoundland who owns a 66 Olds Toronado. I have been searching for years for a model of the Toronado for him, but no luck. Does anybody out there know if such a kit, regardless of scale, is obtainable?
Also,way back in the 50's and 60's, Revell made a line of cars from the '50's. Mercury, Buick, etc. Same question: obtainable?
Thanks, folks.

a web search turned up a chap who was selling a couple of models, but it seemed very out of date. Someone better informed may be able to tell you if they are models or slots Question [?]

AMT 6937 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado 2 Door Fastback 1/25 3 in 1 $95.00

JoHan C-4970 1970 Oldsmobile Toronado 2 Door Fastback 1/25 USA Oldies $50.00

However, now you have a lead on someone who made them Wink [;)]

[edit] another lead - http://www.modelroundup.com/index.html seem to stock the JoHan model, and have a lot of other stuff that you may be interested in!

Hey tonyryan,
To my knowleadge there are no kits available for that year Toronado.
As far as searching for those old Revell kits the only thing that i can recommend are trying e-bay(beleive it or not!) or www.deanshobbystop.com.
Dean carries a ton of vintage kits.
Good luck!
Carlos
