I had this one for years....may still have it somewhere, but used its tires elsewhere.
replaced it with a Hot Wheels Elite.

Nice setup Galen. An excellent model for the money.

Yep, with a few hours or less work, any Maisto can be brought up a few notches in looks.

@100ford2003 Maisto has come along way but way back when they didn't put brake calipers on their rotors I considered them sub-par. The nice part about them, they are easy to disassemble. Here are a couple up grades, which usually includes lowering the front end.
Newer releases are much better but still just a little thing adds to the eye appeal. Just a little black on the wheel center caps just adds to the realism.
A little LOVE goes along way...
