This is possibily the best 1:24 scale car I have ever seen from Franklin Mint.
In 1970, the Muscle Car phenomenon was in full flex. Yet one car emerged from the pack—the Dodge Challenger R/T 426 Hemi®. From its classic coke-bottle shape and sleek lines to its uni-body platform and expanded wheelbase, it looked and acted the part of the definitive "wolf in sheep’s clothing."
Franklin Mint did their research. Look at the motor compartment, The effort the mint has put into duplicating the wire runs perfectly. In the photo above you can see they even went to the trouble of adding production numbers on the marking plates, and you guessed it they are correct!!!
The interior is very well done with cloth seats and the faux wood dash and door panels. The shifter is well proportioned. The safety belts all have a very realistic look to them. The gauge cluster is a standout on this car, all gauges are clear and easily read. The gas, brake and clutch petals also have a realistic look about them and are well proportioned to the interior of the car.
The undercarriage detail as with most Franklin Mint cars is well done. The use of very realistic colors and textures really set off this underside. I love the tone effects of the paint on the pipes. The golden hue with slight hints of purple give the illusion the motor was run at one time.
And yes they even put in the trunk tag that explains how to use the jack...
The amount of little details abound all the way through this car....Jack placement, fuel fill pipe. This is what makes a true collector car.
Even the smallest details in this car were not overlooked! The spacing, angle and mounting placements for the tail pipes are fully reproduced. You can see the brake lines at each wheel.
The overall detailing in this car is excellent. As you can see for your self. I love the little details, like the release buttons of the seat belts. The slight wrinkles of the seat material where the belts come through the seats. Also the tight fit throughout this whole car screams quality.
Incredible attention has been paid to make this car as true to scale as possible. Overall, this is a MUST have. I would have no problems recommending this to any one.
