I need help in finding a car.
Hi,
I am trying to find a 1/24 or 1/25 scale die cast model of a 1970 Plymouth GTX. This car is a bluish-grey with two 4 barrels sticking out of the hood. I believe it's a Maisto Special Edition vehicle, which I saw at a car show last year. I know for a fact that the car isn't a ProRodz or ProStreet edition. A version of this car was given out as a door prize at that car show. The person running the car show said he purchased it at Walgreens. I have contacted Miasto and Walgreens and they have been no help to me whatsoever. I would appreciate it if you could tell me how I could ask the general public (perhaps eBay) if they might have it, or know someone who does.
Thank you very much.

I think you may be thinking of the Hot Wheels 1/18th Scale. I have one but must find it to be sure. Mine if memory serves me is Redish Orange. The box had angled sides (sloping) so I put it away somewhere other than my 1/18th area. I just found it however the 2 4's don't stick thru the hood. It has very slightly darker Flames with more metalic the box says limited Edition & shows 6 cars on the back - 55 Chevy Pro Street, 66 Pontiac GTO Slammed, Scrape Lincoln Zepher w/ Flames,69 Charger w/ Flames, 53 Corvette Pro Street Corvette & 55 Ford Thunderbird Pro Street, 69 Corvette listed & a Pro street 69 Vette also listed but not shown. I have no idea if others were available as either later editions etc.???
