Picked some more GMP's for the collection which keeps growing. Picked up some sweet ones this time around.

This one is the 1st in the stock series, a 1985 GT 1 of 3,000(this one has a higher #2839) and I have been waiting to grab one, they are real rare and hard to get..





84 silver svo, Mike you got hooked on this one , had to have one after seeing yours. 1 of 1,500 2nd in the series, this one is # 976.





next is a 1987 Canyon red LX 1 of 2004, this was 3rd in the stock series and is #567.







The last one I picked up that I thought was pretty cool was the 1985 Twister II in oxford white 1 of 1,000 and this one has a pretty low number of 81. I'm going to try and score the red one next.







group shot..


I'll throw in another favorite, my copper LX..

I like the SVO. Silver is a nice color and the model stands out in person. I have #776


My lowest S/N car is my Teal '93 Cobra. I have # 0065

Thanks Dave. The new stuff is nice but I'm working on some of the older long gone stuff. Still some older stock stuff I want to get and I'm still not sure on some of the older modded stuff but I'll be tempted I'm sure .

LOL ours where only 200 away from each other. yeah once I seen yours when you posted it I had to work on getting one and your right it a nice model in person. I'm going for the black one down the road to complete the set of svo's .
That is a low # you got, I was suprised to see the low # on my twister.

ahh, then some more to get , if you have anymore room . I figured you would have most of these in your collection.The twister is nice one even has the twister dash plaque. The white one is easier to find, I'm on the hunt for the red one which I haven't seen yet kinda odd, but must have been a bigger sell.

yeah for the most part, Dark horse has a sumped fuel tank, high flow fuel pump and braided fuel line under it. the steeda has some detail and k-brace. I'll take some pics of the undercarriage of a couple of them later on, keep on eye on this post.

Dark Horse another favorite..this car has a bad azz stance.


The underside of Dark Horse, the braided hose ends are made to look like russell type anodized fittings and red brake calipers can be seen also, not a ton of detail but not bad.


The underside of Twister II, pretty stock, has the dog bones on the rear end, etc.



The underside of the steeda cobra r, pretty much the same but with the vert V bracing(same as the regular R model.


again not a ton of detail since the assemble bolts for the model are under there, but not bad either, better than other brands.

Myt favorite detail of the 2nd gen models is the realistic brake softlines going from the bodies to the calipers.
