1:25 scale Vanishing
Point 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T.
There
are two versions of the movie. The original in 1971 and a
TV one made in the 1991, though the model kit box really doesn't
specify which movie the model represents.
The
small thumbnail image on the cover is the only clue, and even
with that, it's hard to say.
Either
way, the Dodge Challenger kit with the movie tie-in was long
overdue for a release.
Besides,
in the original, what other movie features a nude young girl
who wants to help out when you're hiding from the cops in
the desert?...choices, choices...

American
Muscle: Muscle Cars From the Otis Chandler Collection
|
- Original
Challenger and Barracuda 1970-1974 - Renowned for their sleek
shapes and prodigiously powerful engines, the Chrysler corporation's
Challenger and Barracuda were among the top cars of the muscle
car era. This book will demonstrate the correct parts, finishes,
options, and trim pieces for all the versions of the E-body Dodge
Challenger and Plymouth Barracuda, which appeared from 1970 to
1974. Especially important to this are the variety of engine options
available, including the hemispherical-head engines-Hemis-that
are so crucial to the mystique of these muscle cars.
- Challenger
& Barracuda Restoration Guide, 1967-1974 - This book provides
valuable illustrations and photos of these beautiful automobiles,
and also some of the little known details that can help make your
restoration complete. Extremely useful for coming to understand
the different options that were available for your model year,
and more importantly, those little things that were unique to
a particular year model.
- Barracuda
& Challenger Muscle Car Color History - Excellent book
for visual identification of 1964-1974 cars. Text is somewhat
general in content, but clear and easy to read. Book also gives
production figures broken down by models for each year--a nice
extra !!!
- Vanishing
Point - Tighten your seat belt. You never had a trip like
this before. Kowalski, the hero of the story, works for a car
delivery service. He takes delivery of a 1970 Dodge Challenger
to take from Colorado to Frisco, California. Shortly after pickup,
he takes a bet to get the car there in less than 15 hours. After
a few run-ins with motorcycle cops and highway patrol they start
a chase to bring him into custody. Along the way, Kowalski is
guided by Supersoul - a blind DJ with a police radio scanner.
Throw in lots of chase scenes, gay hitchhikers, a naked woman
riding a motorbike, lots of Mopar and you've got a great cult
hit from the early 70's.
