Bullitt...

Trajectoire produced a number of interesting pre-painted kits, including the ’68 GT390 Fastback Mustang — as driven by Steve McQueen in the movie “Bullitt”.

Of course, it goes without saying that I would have to have their R/T 440 Dodge Charger from the same chase, to go with it...

Daytona...

I wish I had been able to afford a AMR Cobra Daytona “Body Buck” when they came on the market, but the combined cost of the kit and having it built was more than I could justify, at the time.

Hi Boy...

A few years ago, MiniWerks had a stunning Hi–Boy, of uncertain origin. I dearly wish I could have been in a position to buy it at the time — and frequently wonder if it will ever resurface?

AC Cobra...

MiniWerks recently had a one-off Shin Collection AC Cobra 427 SC, built from a Superior kit. It had polished bare metal body panels and Shin's own scratch built 427 mounted next to it, all on a suede base.

Ah well, no harm in dreaming...
