      I had an oppurtunity to buy one of those but went with the maisto instead.Pretty similar though I just dont like how large the rear wheels are.

      I kind of like how they are a little "Over the top".

      I wonder what those sized wheels would equate to in the real world? What's the scale of the model?

      The Toy car is 1:24 Scale, I haven't tried to scale off the wheels.

      Drop them to 20's and it would look "just right."

      I have a few of those. If I remember correctly, the rears scale out to something like 32s.
      Looking for a new project

      I bought the Maisto version in kit form, then painted it to match my car. My life-size Monte is an '88, so it's got a different rear bumper, but it's close enough. Sorry the black trim is a little uneven; I haven't painted a scale model in eons, but the interior came out great. It was originally black, so I masked off the gauge cluster and other trim pieces, then sprayed the whole interior with the same burgundy color as the interior of my car. Sorry for the hi-jack!

      No problem, I'm doing the same thing with my car. I bought a diecast just like my Mustang & I’m planning on painting it just like mine.
      Your’s looks sweet. I’ll post some of my Mustang when I’m done with it.

      This is the diecast I'm starting with. I want to repaint the car & play with different colors & stripes to see what I like.
