I had a '68 Dart with a slant six. Great engine & great car. If anyone has a spare Toy Cars & Models version I'm interested.

Here is a "Picture Of The Week" that I just had to re-visit.
Another wonderful casting made by JL.
I am sure that the Mopar guys and gals love this one.
I saw one on the street the other day, so I had to find this thread.

Cheers. Cobra

This thread brings to mind the fact that I would love to see JL do a 63 to 66 Dart or Valiant. Or better yet a 60 to 62 Lancer or Valiant. Better still an "A"-body wagon! Jeez,I could go on and on----a SAAB 93-96 from the '50s or '60s!! Or a---------------
What cars/trucks would you guys like to see JL honor in diecast???

They hit this one right in the bullseye (pun intended). This is definitley in my top 5 favourite castings and top 10 all time fav cars.
Cars move up and down in my list, (depending on my mood I think) but it's usually the same cars in different order. Collecting JL's has brought cars I hadn't really taken note of before to my attention (another bonus).

I agree with 60'sMetal this would make a great PIP. Slant 6 engine still going strong but the body needs a little (lot) work. No problem imagining that, my mother had a white one that she gave up on about 10-12yrs ago when athe torsion bar snapped (don't remember the axact year of that car) and she couldn't find another. angry.gif

To answer Lummux's querry; 66 Nova Wagon, Oh ya!

Wow, I once had a Gold 68 Dart with a 318, she scoot, loved that car, Mopar or not, Those late 60's Darts were classics from the get go, Sure wish I had her still.
Those pics look real enough to drive
Thanks everyone thumbsup.gif
