[Closed] Pics – Bodacious Tail Feathers

I gotta give credit where credit is due! Sun Star's models are constantly improving!

Kudos to them for listening to the critiques from collectors. I used to call them 85% model cars. That was my way of saying they'd go 85% of the way to make an accurately scaled model. No longer. Not only do they listen, but they're constantly improving on the accuracy of their models! They are fast becoming the "Danbury Mint" of 1:18 scale American iron.

Marlowe I have to agree. They continually improve and as they do I continually buy.

I will too!! I'm even going to make an exception to my rule of only buying 1. I usually pick the one like best but with the Platinums I want top down, top up and hardtops of the same car!

I have taken notice this is the new craze in collecting

You know I think the 1950 early 1960 are back. more
model manufactures take notice, of what this Sun Star is offering, even I who collect classic cars from Europe and America ford Mustangs have taken notice on this discussion forum.

Robert... I just turned 60 and I'm finally seeing the cars that I remember and love and want to collect as models and I'm GLAD that Sunstar is doing it and doing it well!!

IMO though...it seems that Sunstar may use a fully optioned car to model. I kinda wish that the Fury didn't have a passenger side fender mirror. It will leave a hole that I have to 'fill in'...lol.

Along with those pesky 'fender skirts'...lol.

This '60 Plymouth looks sensational in red ! What a terrific model and fine pictures, too.

Yes the year have passed

We are both the same age. and yes I am know a big mussel car fan. When I was going to high school all the rich kids had Mopars , Chevy's and hot Ford mustangs. One guy I remember his parents told him not to play foot ball on the team and if he did not they give him a new Jaguar XKE well he got the XKE is still joined thee foot ball team He had the most expensive car in High school, other cars I remember some of the kids toyed with English MG and spit fires. I had a 19710 Fiat 124 Sports coups which best car I owned 10 year before I purchased a 1967 VW better with a leaky engine and thee I meet a guy at the Swap meets always liked auto lititure on Mercedes and he had some piece for his sister sent him for England. We became good buddies and I wanted to buy his European Ford Festia with all the goodies , but he wanted $11000,00 for it He finally got a new Ford Mustang GT 5.0 in 1982 and I got a ride of my life floating the axle on the on ramp. We both got matching cars except I did not get the Recardo option seat and power door looks and hatch his was Silver mine was Medium red Loved that car
