Beginning to play with some more Rapid-Prototyping.

Your votes will help influence my next round of insanity!

I know that I will lose this vote but I voted for the Dodge Dart anyway. I'd take the Corvair second. I thing it is just a matter of time before one of the RTR manufacturers make the Javelin given its championship run under Roger Penske.

Well said, Mike.

I was going to say I'd like to vote for the two you mentioned but you pretty much made the case.

Isn't there already a Javelin resin kit?

I know nothing about the race success of these cars so purely on appearance I voted for the Corvair.

I'm going go along with the rest; the AMC will be along eventually. The Dart would be my forst choice and the Corvair next. The reasons I choose the Dart first: 1) Just like the body style of the car, 2) The Dodge lends itself to more applications (i.e. Harry Wise stock cars, etc).

Good points all, and I appreciate the input. If Pioneer does the 1971/2, I honestly don't know if anyone will do the 1970 frankly. Besides, you guys know me - I like to do cars 5-8 years before anyone puts one out...

I always look at a new 1/32 offering with an eye toward dirt tracking. So, I passed on the voting.

Now, having said that, I DO recall in the 70's or so here regionally, a chap by the name of Tillman Evans raced a Corvair-bodied dirt car. Hmmm.

I would love to have the Dart! Are you still working on the 66 Dart?

The Javelin is my most wanted of the 3 - the Dart is very similar to the GTX which is/was produced by Monogram and the Corvair - which end is front, which is the back? :)

I voted for the Dart. The Corvair would be my 2nd choice. And the Javelin 3rd.

I voted seconds after this was posted.

I did go Mopar...and did not think it had a chance.
