That looks absolutely stunning (not to mention the 440+6 and matching numbers bit !) . . . hell, even the panel fit of the hood leading edge is authentic ! (or is it on the safety catch ?) I'm just massively jealous. The closest I'll come to matching that is my 18th scale ERTL - mind you, I have the same colour AND lime green . . .

Shame about the "NON STANDARD" passenger door mirror
An option on the build sheet Row 7 G3 "Mirror O/S RT" unless I'm very much mistaken Mr R!;)

Does it really matter. I wouldn't say no to it, neither would a lot of others.

Indeed.......We fully expect videos very much in the same mold as the ones you have done for your 69 RR

Thanks all.
Believe me, no one can be as excited as I am. When I was 10 years old and an avid subscriber to 'Classic American',

the Road Runner was my favourite car. The 'Bird was on another level! I feel very fortunate to now be the custodian of these two awesome cars.
Dave81 and Cannonball - don't worry, there will be a Boyd Coddington-style welcome home burnout... once she's home!
And Mr. R. "Galen" RUNNER - good point! I'll double check the build sheet when it arrives. lol
Sublime for 40 - it was on the safety catch for that first photo.
And finally... Carl, you're right! Good job there's enough room for a sleeping bag on the back seat...

Still, it was getting chilly so I thought it was best to get it a blanket...

well slim you had a slim chance of getting one and you did,

nice one, are you sure thats a bonded warehouse it looks like a blinkin photo shoot studio, how come all the other cars have covers on them and what are they,??? feels good when you get something you have aspired to for a long time doesent it....

Wow. Goodness me that looks a good 'un.
Gotta admire that attitude - You cant take it with you right ? Dont know you, but VERY happy for you - amazing to get something you dreamed of, and you have done it in style. Cap is dof'd sir.
