Looking up the word "
Nostalgic" in the english dictionary one will find
that
Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.0.1) provides us with "
a wistful desire to return in thought or in fact to a former time in
one's life, to one's home or homeland, or to one's family and friends;
a sentimental yearning for the happiness of a former place or time". Sounds about right to me! Except, I can find no mention of Hwy 61's soon to be released 18 scale 2006 Challenger Concept car. This thing has Nostalgia written all over it.
Finished in Challenger Orange with black interior this concept features all of today modern interpretations in the classic styling of the 70's.
To be honest It is virtually impossible to evaluate what is correct and was is not since no production models are available for reference. I will however state that my example was very well done with great fit and finish.
Specification for this model are based on the listed items below.
