    buickbonehead WOT Baby!

    As much as I wish '65 had a GS Wildcat, it must be a '66. '66 was the only year of the GS Wildcat.

    Well its gotta be more valuabe then, being a factory goof???

    But the box does say 65, think its maybe a vert too, though the top is up.

    Arms were to full to buy one though.

    What is a 65 Wildcat GS 1:12??? A die cast ?? a model ??

    Only 65 Wildcats in miniature I know of is the AMT 1/25 scale issued only once in 1965, and the 1/43 scale one produced by Siku of Germany.

    That AMT Widcat model was re issued a couple of times. One just recently. I made a slot car out of it

    Dunno on the brand.

    Searching the net like crazy. I'm still not finding any currently available 65 Wildcats in die cast or plastic. Found a few sites that still carry the last 66 re-issue, and 70, both in 1/25 scale plastic. I'd really like to know what you saw at Menards:Do No:

    Yup, your right. It was the 66 I was thinking of. :Dou:

    So you want me to go buy one so you can see that its real???

    Not necessary to buy. I'm just at a loss. Wildcat scale models are few and far between. This unusually large scale (1/12) 65 you saw would be something new to us here. The fact that I can find no information about it on he web has me wondering exactly what you saw. There are no Menards near me to check either.

    For a fellow Steelers fan ill got get one ;)

    Just hope the one close has some, I was at the one on the other side of town when I say them. Had a $10 off coupon for Lowes I had to use but I only got the min to use it, then went to Menards for the rest.

    Lowes n HomeDepot are gonna go belly up, Menards kicks butt.

    Ok I was wrong so wrong on many parts, they are 1:26 and are 65 Riv GS, not a wildcat, though I am so sure it was but I just went to the close local one, not where I first saw them.

    Picked on up in red and blue.

    They did have some 1:12 stuff but was old old cars like Belair n junk but no Buicks.

    In the 1:26 they also had 69 Orange Charger and a 70 green R/T Charger, also 1st gen Camaro's

    Pics will be posted in a few.

    Those models are actually real nice castings for only $5. I've got the same one but with a Marvel Punisher paintjob, I think from '05 or so0.
