Joe is there anyway you could make the sec pic bigger? Ertl did a Motion Markowitz Olds this year in 1/18 scale and I would like to see how close they got it.


Thanks,
Ralph

Ralph,--- I picked up that Motion/Olds car myself--for the most part it is right on("Member" on decal should be on top of wheel),but it's not--LANE EXACTS --it would have been nice if they had put in the ram/air hoses--------Joe


Heres your blow-up------

copo - THAT PICTURE ROCKS !! Thanks for posting.

Trivia Contest: What about the Motion-Markowitz die-cast is blatently incorrect ?? (not including the info already stated...)

[JoeG]

Casey, Your right ERTL seems to go off track when it comes to actual detail---If I remember correctly that Motion/Olds was a 4 speed.Overall it's kinda neat.---JoeG
Got to give them credit though,-- they spelled MACKOWITZ right [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]---- See what I mean.

Here's another-----

OOOH - the plot thickens !! That wasn't *quite* what I was looking for - but EXCELLENT observation Joe.

Don't pay any attention to all the other crap attached to my refrigerator. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img] Just look at the die-cast. It's an ugly error ..... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

PS - Rob Clary can't play. And now that I see 442w30 (Diego) is on-line, he can't play either !! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img]
