This is a low rider Plymouth Fury from Racing Champions (TM). It takes well to being slammed low and having a radical pink paint job and flame treatment and a gold accents. It came from the age of neverending tailfins. The '58 Fury briefly regained fame in the famed Stephen King novel & movie Christine.
Would you like fries with this? How 'bout 375 Horsepower from a 440 cubic inch 4-barrel? This looks like the Plymouth sibling for the Dodge Charger. I like this Matchbox version, but I wish the hood opened and that it had a historically accurate paintjob..
From Matchbox Collectibles (TM)!
This 1970 Hemi Cuda from Road Champs (TM) offers a clear plastic protective case, opening hood and doors and an accurate paintjob! The aircleaner and chrome parts of the engine appear to missing. It must have been parked on a discount store shelf in a bad neighborhood.
As Plymouth rides into the sunset of business reality, we can thank them for some innovative cars. Most recently, they brought the mass production Custom Rod to America. If you don't have the time to build your own hot rod from the chassis up, the Prowler could be the next best thing. You get the style, profile, and performance of a custom rod with the reliability and safety of a modern mass production automobile. This diecast version was created by Maisto (TM) and goes with a friction powerplant rather than the real thing's 3.5 liter six-cylinder.
