Replica of my real car

Hi, i'm the owner of a 1967 dodge charger and i want to make a replica in 1/18 with the 1966 charger (wait for a 1967) but i can't find a good set of torq-trust wheels (deeper rear and narrower front) can someone can help me. Thanks.

67charger, Ertl made the Torq Thrust on several models. It might come down to buying an old Ertl model and doing a swap. Does anyone know if GMP makes the American Racing Torq Thrust wheels?

yeah- GMP makes at least one set that *looks* like Torq Thrust - see:

Not sure if ERTL or anyone else has done one with the Torq Thrusts. I've seen people selling sets on ebay from time to time.

Everything GMP makes is seems to be high quality. In fact - over at the wheelswap thread, I placed a pic of a conversion I did with GMP Kinesis wheels...

I'll try to get ahold of some of those GMP wheels. As with quality, so goes the price!
