I'm surprised that the 3rd place is that HWs 70 Olds 442. I think that's the old 70 442 casting isn't it? HWs only made the one as far as I know. It's not a bad casting to look at as I have quite a few of that one but it lacks so much detail and I think it has plastic grills and bumpers which are part of the chassis. It's a very old casting and can't compare to a JL at all, well maybe a JL from 1995.

The new JL 70 Olds 442 is gonna make waves.

Is that Coronet the snap kit one?

These aren't places, these are choices.

Yep, the old 442 casting.

Snap kit, Yes.

It's funny, I was at the Walmart where I saw those two WL (chase, anyways) versions of the Coronet, and they're still there. After two weeks. Still can't pay the price for one...

Yup, six per case. The 64 GTO showed up at Meijers, 2 Red, 2 Bronze, 1 Aqua, 1 Pearl White. If someone wants it LMK, I hid it. Cost plus shipping. About $15 on the shelf.

I've had several cases and not one white version at all.
