Anyone seen a scale model of a Gbody olds??

[84hurst]

I know Jonny Lightning made a limited series of the 83/84 hurst olds, but there only 1/64 scale, i was wonderin if anyones seen a bigger one like 1/18 or something, i saw ertl had a very detailed 85 monte with removable t-tops for $70 and i found a gbody buick also for $30 but no olds 🙁 I'd really like to find a match for my car: 84 Hurst/olds, am i outta luck??

Am pretty sure that Revell made a 1/24-1/25th 1986 Cutlass in die cast with 20's. Then somoeone pulled a mold off it and are selling resin copies now & then on eBay.

Just went to their site, found a buick and a monte, no olds 🙁 it seems all these model companies tend to forget about these G body olds cars

well, there are resin cutlass bodies for sale on ebay every now and then, which were copied from a diecast model. the bodies usually auction for about $50. don't see any listed in the current or past auctions right now.

after more thought, i seem to recall that this mold was pulled from a revell die cast model and that the diecast MOLD is being modified to run styrene plastic, as in store-bought model kit

ahh ic what you're talking about there, that'd take some work but at least the body's there

Looks like some type of nascar model as the fuel filler is in the quarter panel.

Monogram had a 1/24 or 1/25 scle MC SS in the mid 80's.
