Well that got your attention didnt it.

Anyway click this link to see it

http://www.classiccarlectables.com.au/aboutus.html

You may have to wait for the video to run depending on your isp speed
(cable/adsl/dial up etc)

Oh yes sorry but its a Model Car by Classic Carlectables 1/18 scale

Now tell me is it exactly 1/18 or have they missed some things?

I know all the Ford Boys on here are perfectionists so you should be able to pick on something.......

I've got a few of their 1:18 models, including a Citric Pursuit Ute, and i have to say it's one of the best made/looking BA models i have. Should be a cracker, they're releasing a Typhoon and Tornado it seems, 500 of each, pretty limited.

Are you sure it's Citric? My mate has a Citric Pursuit & was after a model of one but classic only made the Pursuit in Acid Rush. I think they made the GT in Citric tho...

Sorry, you're right, my mistake, it is acid rush. I also have a GT in blueprint, and a gtp in lightning strike, but i think they're Biante's.

For some reason the models always seem to be too thin/too long though, not sure if that's a requirement dictated by the manufacturer or not ? All brands of models seem to be the same.

Biante make some great models too.

Maybe I'm blind but I can't see the intercooler behind the grille.
