I'm surprised you would pick those, since JL is already producing or planning to produce them.

The 83 could use some more work done to it, also wouldn't mind havening a variety of companies to choose from for it.

the 50 Olds isnt out... yet, so it could be a big race to who gets it done first :)

Keeping with one of Greenlight's themes, I'd have to go with these cars:

1. '79-'86 Mustang ('79 Pace Car replica/'79 5.0 & Turbo Cobra/'82 GT/'83-'84/'85-'86) could all be done with one casting, with different front and rear clips, much like Johnny Lightning does. And the '79 Mustang pace car seems like a reasonable request from a company that makes Indy 500 pace cars. The other variations, however, would give the casting more use in the Muscle Car Garage series. ;)

2. '82-'86 Toyota Celica Supra: It used it as a pace car for Indy Car events in the early '80s. More of a long shot than the Mustang, but who knows?

3. '90 Chevy Beretta. I'd prefer a hardtop since the convertible was obviously never produced, however a casting like the JL '67 GTX, Nash Metro, or '62 Continental with plastic tops could work well for both versions.

For other interesting Indy 500 pace cars: http://www.indy500.com/pacecar/

'84 Pontiac Fiero, '89 Turbo Trans Am, '88 Cutlass Supreme, '87 Chrysler LeBaron.... there are some interesting cars in there.

Actually, this is a good idea. Some of my stangs would look great sitting on top of one of the COE Turck beds.

I'm well aware of that- barely over 3,000 '61 DeSotos made, total. But as the last DeSotos, ever, and also the the extremely distinctive double grilled front end, I'd love to see this one in 1/64. :thumbsup:

Sweet! If anyone sees this come in, please let me know! Also, it's labeled as an Adventurer, but the 1961 DeSotos had no actual model names, they were just DeSotos, so it could be an earlier DeSoto mislabeled.
