I am finally getting a parts lot to restore one of my grails....MPC's '67 Granetelli Indy Turbine Car. I have diligently searched and searched for parts to restore the builder pictured below. I have seen one of these MPC kits built in a contest at a show here locally,and it is my favorite all time Indy car, pace car or race car.I don't know if you all remember this from back at Hawks "Crapotition" or not,but this was one of my choices to restore for that old crapotition that we had there:

I look forward to staring on 'er.....Target date for completion??? Before next years Indy 500!

Nice project you have going there Todd..
I have one of those a fellow at the local flea market gave me last year.
Kinda had them on the table... It was almost 90 degrees that day..
Needless to say. The car has a permanent twist now.. Good parts car..

Count Dragula: Attention!!! We are going to have another contest starting in June! I think everyone will love the theme! May 2, 2023 19:10:37 GMT -5 *
