GMP diecast no longer, new name.

No floormats for these like the old ones either, huh? Unless I didn't notice them in the box...

I skipped the Home Improvement one, but a friend got it so I'll be able to check it out in person. l expect the same quality as the Cobras, probably with the sticky steering.

A few pre-order coupes are available.

I'm not a fan of the coupe mold, so i'll likely not get these. Just need to see if that 1990 detriot speed is a hatch, as it is black. If it is, i'll buy that one

Yeah. I’ll likely take one of the two I purchased and modify it to match my car as close as I can. Might include changing wheels and finding someone parting out a GMP exhaust setup with tailpipes.
 
That is something I would love to see if you end up doing it

Already have a few EBay searches saved looking for the parts.

I do have a set of GMP cobra R that I could always paint white like 98 cobra wheels. Either way, goal is to modify one to match my car and put it on the shelf in my office. I’ve been waiting for a black Lx for years.

So, one will get squirreled away, the other is getting modded.

So new parts for the LX. A stock 5.0 HO to replaced the supercharged one with Holley intake. I wish I had a motor with 93 cobra intake, but GMP never sold that separate and I don’t feel like stripping one of my cobras to get it.

Also, set of wheels to match my future wheels

Engine swap was easy. I need to find a stock exhaust to swap on, or steal it from one of my other models. I don’t want the dumps since my car doesn’t have them.

The wheels are a bit trickey, so this will take some time. They don’t mount the same way.

Teaser of the new wheels on the body.

The wheels I intend to run
