Tasca needs to be in a car designed after his families race cars. It needs to be the Mystery 4 car.

Man I love these, I actually saw all of those cars race at one time or another. The Ramchargers really brought back memories!

Re: Back To The Future, Part 2

Except for the Princess' car, What Stands Out? Same thing with the First Go-Round?

and what stood out at Bakersfield?

on one hand we mitch about the cars look like rolling billboards, then we bellyache about the cars not being billboards. we can't have it both ways.

Re: Back To The Future, Part 2

Those are some very cool renderings. My favorite had to be Color Me Gone. I always loved that name.

And the car was AWESOME in person

side note, the 67 and 68 car had white sides, due to 'yellowing' a little touch blue was added, becoming a light baby blue. helped a little, but finally, it became the medium blue, like in the rendering.

Re: Back To The Future, Part 2

Ever Time I see that Paul, I wonder what if. You Nailed the tower, and Big June's Candy 'Dodge' ( that just doesn't sound right) but the Blue car should be Pebbles, Pulp, and Chef (Dark Horse 4?).
