@pascal-michels Wasn't the 1959 Buick a Western? Also, Spark made a nice version of the '67 Camaro - I haven't made a pic of mine yet.

1971

- Dodge Challenger

Custom made with a Matchbox model

I used a too light orange color and the decals should have a white background.

I'll have to refresh this modelcar someday
