Maybe they'll be a huge hit.

At the local hobby shop the Hersheys and other nonsense cars seem to have a long shelf life ...

...but just weird choices.

Consider the source, and it's not surprising.

Oh no, not surprising, but still weird.

If the graffiti was gone, the rust spots could be a starting point for a real weathering job.  I fail to understand how anyone could think that those cars in their present state look even remotely prototypical.

$1 to the first person that figures out what proto-photo they used for inspiration...

One taken by a San Francisco hippie on drugs?
