Coming Soon from GMP

Built in 1964 by legendary engine builder Keith Black, painted blue metallic by Joe Anderson, it debuted at the famous Lion's Drag Strip with Leong at the wheel. After crashing on his first pass, Don Prudhomme was brought on the team as the new driver. Leong and Prudhomme won the NHRA Winternationals in 1965, and went on tour winning almost every race they entered, including important wins at Pomona and Indy. The following year, Mike Snively drove the Hawaiian to victory AGAIN at Pomona and Indy.... two of the biggest races of the year, won two years in a row by two different drivers... a record yet to be duplicated!

1953 Buick Skylark Convertible

One of the great joys I find whenever I receive a new die cast model is researching the history behind the real life size vehicle that it represents.  Maybe it is just a pet peeve but I feel this should be a mandatory requirement that is included on all models. Providing a potential collector with a small bit of history should be a no-brainer and one that is sadly lacking on most entry-level models today.
