I went bikini shopping today to be sure my mystery recipient actually got something he wanted as opposed to only digging through my stash. Brought this home for myself:

And my brother changed the oil in his car, and the case of oil he bought included a John Force Funny car from Lionel:

I just wish this opened up. It's a funny car, after all!

You know, I saw that, but it didn't click. Sure looke like it!

Well, you could always "Force" it open! :wave:

Wouldn't take much, just a coupla screws...

I don't imagine it would be too difficult to make a hinge for the funny-car, either. Why this wasn't done from the factory, I've no idea. Seems pointless to have a funny-car with a screwed-down body.

I hear ya on that

Just another way to cut corners to rush a diecast product out to the market.



It is diecast right tolenmar ?? I do not follow NHRA stuff so I have no clue if its plastic or diecast that is why I am asking.

It is. I'm due an oil change myself. Once we get my wife's problems resolved (back in the hospital again...sigh), I'll see if there are more and maybe different drivers.

I hope she is doing okay bro.

Thanks for the kind words. More pain, more tests. Good days, Bad days. We think she'll be discharged this afternoon.
