Monogram asked Tom to do something with the old Snake and Mongoose funny car chassis so he came up with the Outcast and Cop Out funny cars. The Cop Out just required new decals since it was the Mongoose car in black plastic. But Tom redesigned a new body for the Outcast. Settling on a chopped 57 Chevy with colorful graphics. This particular kit was the purple reissue from the 80's, I sourced the decals from an aftermarket supplier.
Just another in the line of great Tom Daniel designs. A little dusty this one. Once I get settled a LOT of models are getting washed before I put em up.
Now that we know that.... What have we learned?...
Man, your automobiles are outstanding!
I love funny cars, they are just so weird

Beautiful work! I can't get over how smooth and clear your gloss coat is.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.
