This Acadian looks pretty good

In the same store, I(a bit begrudgingly) passed on two chase Ground Pounders, a blue 'Cuda and a brown Fury. After further research I think I made an awful mistake by not snatching the 'Cuda. In any case, it was a bit crazy holding three Chase cars in my hands.

I found all three hiding at the bottom of the display cases, the paper between rows was even still there.

And chase cars can get pretty crazy on auction sites, can't they?

I've got the Chevrolet 100th Anniversary chase hauler with the Corvette sitting under it, those things are bonkers online from what I've seen. That one I found hiding behind some boxes, and I got pretty happy when I found it. :lol:

Nice! I love this piece also,have it and the regular. :thumbsup:

Even though I'm not a fan of Ground Pounders...

I decided I didn't want to let these slide.

The front rim on the 'Cuda has been damaged a little unfortunately, but the box is perfectly sealed, so...

And I wouldn't mind testing the waters to see if anybody wouldn't mind trading for the Auto-Projects chase cars. :lol:

I have got the Chase Mustang.

doesnt look damaged, just rubber off rim.

Looks like the chrome trim on the Acadian has aged with a lovely patina.
Don't worry...........it'll buff out. :lol: :lol:

Congrats on the score.:hat:

Nah, it's definitely damage. I'm not sure how it happened, but the rim has chips taken off of it, which is a shame. There's nothing(that I can hear) rattling around in the box, so I have to imagine it was a factory defect.

It's still a nice conversation piece for me, if nothing else.

The Fury has fingerprints or something on it, but it's also perfectly sealed, so it must've been a bad day at the factories these things were made.

Never found that one in the wild and have missed out on several auctions. Very cool car, congrats on the score!

Message M2, they most likely will give you a new rim, their customer service is legendary.

That is a good thing to put into consideration, but

A) I'd be petrified to take the 'Cuda out of it's package :lol:
B) I'm waiting for a response from them about a rear bumper for a Bel-Air right now. No response for nearly a week now.

If they ever return my Bel-Air e-mail(Or if worse comes to worse I could PM Sean here and ask about it) I'll ask though. Thanks for the suggestion.
