Product Description

From the Manufacturer

In Tijuana, south of the border, car designer Tom Daniel spotted an antique taxi, the making of a real, unreal show car. He took the ornate Spanish frame, added a new rear end with dual shock and coil spring and ornate radius rods, a hot "Big Poncho" engine with dual quad Weber carbs, groovy headers and lots of chrome completed the chassis. He painted the antique body hot orange and restored the 1st class interior, 3rd class fender seats and top-mounted 2nd class seat and chicken coop. Tom got it on its feet with a set of super size slicks and wide boots up front, all mounted on deep dish spider wheels.

This review is from: Revell 1:24 Tijuana Taxi (Toy)

I purchased this model as I am a big fan of Tom Daniels inspired designs.

I had many problems with parts fitting correctly. I am not a pro model builder but in no way a beginner either.

I have built quite a few of the Tom Daniels models, but this one I would never buy again.
