Hello Fellow Scale Modelers!
I've seen pics of a resin 1972/73 AMC Matador (2 door) in 1/25th scale.
Does any one have one for sale or trade?
Let me know.
Thanks!

Are you meaning the NASCAR one or a stock?
If NASCAR, MCW made it but it hasn't been in production for a while, can possibly find one on ebay as they pop up occasionally, I have one (not for sale)but honestly its not that great looking, they used the Johan Rebel kit as base and cobbled together a nose/hood but it's not very accurate or symmetric.
If you're up for a little conversion work though, Too Many Projects does a stock two door matador that's very nice if you can snag one from him (can see his stuff on facebook but he sells on ebay). I'm using the front clip from his on the MCW body to make it more accurate but he does a complete street version body that's spot on and could be made into the NASCAR version fairly easily if thats the desire

Hello Terry!
Thanks so much for sharing your insight!!
Yes, I'm looking to build the NASCAR version.
Specifically the Team Penske '72 AMC Matador driven by Mark Donahue that won the 1973 Winston West race at Riverside.

Thats the plan for mine as well-Message Rob/Too Many Projects and see if he's still doing his Matador, its kinda pricey but is way nicer than the MCW one
