A LITTLE TWEAKING (or enlarging) OF THE WHEEL OPENINGS AND BINGO! A 2-dr Sedan AWB DODGE!

Actually, one could modify the Yankee Peddler couldn't they? ....Hmm, what a simple project...Hmm.....

I always wanted this awesome looking "Tomato Car!"

While we appreciate ideas like this, it's real hard to justify paying to modify the die cast body mold to do 1 run of a car. Then the problem of will China get it correct the first try, etc'. Just too risky, but VERY cool car to do.

True enough Jim but I thought maybe (just maybe) after the YP run and a few others, why not go...

..for it? Wishful thinking perhaps but no harm for asking. Thanks for your response Jim.

Yeah.......the "Tomato Car" just might be a project I'll have to do myself. Ya gotta admit, that's one cool gasser!

It's just that then it would cost to get the mold back to normal again (more $) if wanted to do more
