    This is a brand new offering from GMP. I had it on order from Supercar Collectibles. It was $81.00 to the door.

    It comes without the cars of course. However, all the figures are included.

    It's quite heavy. The tree and the two track officials don't stay up very well. The two driver figures are for a rail job and have their shoulders chopped and no legs.

    Looks like the driver in the 70 is screming for dear life.

    That is very cool! Did you detail the cars and add the white top to the 70?

    Thanks guys...I thought you might enjoy it. This time of the year we all need a little lift, and a diversion from tax time. Dan, I did modify the Aqua car. The top was added {tried to get the seams right on the vinyl top}, removed the front spoiler, added the rocker stripes of orange, added G60 tires, painted aqua on headlight doors and grille filler, painted marker lights and wheel well trims, detailed the engine compartment, interior and underside. I did all of this before the V-top cars became widely available and it probably wasn't worth all the time to anyone but myself. My next task it to take a couple of '70 GSX cars and turn them into "GS" convertibles. I don't want to pay $70 + dollars for a "GSX" convertible.

    I bought that one off an outfit in Canada when the '67 first came out. They are still available in several colors. Ebay is certainly a good source. I like using these folks:
