I just unboxed a Franklin mint model that I have searched for a long time trying to get it at the right price. This came to me brand new in the box with all documentation. At a great price of $130. The 1984 Pontiac, Grand Prix, driven by Richard Petty for his 200th win.

thanks Bob, John. I've always felt the same about the Yat Ming presidential series. I'm sure they would have sold well too.

John, you would probably be aware of this kit? Revell 1/24 86 Monte Carlo. Very similar body design.

@geoff-jowett Geoff, I built a 80 Monte Carlo with a Motorcycle on a trailer, but have not seen this model.
