I figured everyone would see this here, but, befor it gets locked .
It cost 74bucks after tax. I got it at a local hobbie shop. They Told me they would have to order it but they had in stock. I was shocked.

Anyways its a nice size. The rims are 2"x1"wide.
The plenun is 2 3/4 long. Its BIG MAN.

That model is a spitting image of my car (except mine has t-tops) I still have mine unbuilt from the first time the kit was issued. Hey this could be the start of a "3rd Gen Modeling/Die Cast" board" How about it administrators?

I tried to buy one on ebay last year. I offered the guy 80.00 and he wouldnt sale it. I think he was asking 200.00 for it. That was before the release of it again. If I ever get this motor in I would like to pick one up.

I like the 1/8th scale, I have a orange 57 chevy nomad 1/8th scale. I built it about 15 years ago.. pretty cool!

I just bought one last month.I paid $50.00.Not to bad!The hobby store I got it at has one more.The guy told me it is a new release model....I don't think so!I already have the engine painted and wired with plug wires,throttle cable and TV cable,fuel lines and power steering hoses.It is painted to match my 89 but I don't have wheels to match.I don't think they ever made a set of outlaws in a 1/8 scale.If so I would love to have a set.When I get a chance I'll take a pic and post it.
