    This is the 1971 Dodge Challenger Motown Missile in 1:18 scale by Acme Diecast.The Motown Missile itself is a testament to Chrysler’s ambition. Built as a factory test bed by some of the best engineers, including the famous Tom Hoover, it was used to trial new concepts before passing them down to legendary racers like Sox & Martin. The car’s original purpose was clear, break new ground, and push what was technically possible. One aspect of the Motown Missile that separated it from all other Pro Stock cars at the time was the connection it had with the Chrysler NASA Rocket Development Division (located in Huntsville, AL) that incorporated all kinds of aerospace technology, in the way of exotic testing equipment and DAQ (data acquisition) for when the car was traveling down the race track. While it was a full-on racecar, it actually doubled as a test and development vehicle. In 1971 driver Don Carlton joined the team and drove the Motown Missile in the ’71 Grand nationals and set an all-time low et at 9.48 and 146.10 mph.This exquisite diecast model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish. Other features include: ● Extremely Detailed Engine ● Moveable and Steerable Front Wheels ● Accurate and highly detailed Interior and Chassis ● Opening Doors, Trunk, and Hood
