ICONIC REPLICAS VINTAGE BUS LINE
We have tremendous respect for a model company with the dedication to become the recognized leader in any niche market. Often, such specialization comes from a personal passion for the subject. Certainly such is the case for Iconic Replicas, which is one of the largest in the field of diecast bus and motorcoach replicas from both past and present. The passion and expertise that has driven Iconic Replicas in this admittedly specialized genre come from company principal (officially “Director of Innovation & Design”) Jeff Silver. Before Jeff made model buses he collected them, and before that he actually drove tour buses in the Canadian Rockies back in the 1980s. That level of personal connection helps him both in selecting subjects with the most interest and historical significance to the North American market and in making sure they are built to exacting standards and as accurate as possible.

THE COMPLETE BOOK OF CORVETTE: EVERY MODEL SINCE 1953

The Corvette is known the world over as “America’s Sports Car.” With eight generations spanning seven decades, the Vette has a lot of history behind it and there is much to learn— and much to celebrate—about this iconic machine. As the title of the book by Mike Mueller makes plain, The Complete Book of Corvette: Every Model Since 1953 is here to help readers do both. Newly revised and updated to include the 2020 C8 Corvette, this volume provides excellent context on how the Vette has evolved into the world-class supercar that it is today.

JOHNNY LIGHTNING DOES REAL MUSCLE IN MINIATURE

I had plans well underway for the big “Bargain Muscle Cars” feature story in this issue (p18) when I saw this lineup for the new Muscle Cars USA 2020 Release 3 from JL. I already knew I would be talking about the Dodge Dart GTS and AMC Rebel Machine, so I figured I’d just plunder those two cars from this set for that story and be all set. But then my conscience kicked in. Both because the other four cars in the set deserve their moment in the sun, and because they are all based on actual cars from the 2019 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show it just makes sense to talk about them together.

HOT WHEELS LIFE SIZE

Hot Wheels has been having full-size versions of its iconic 1:64 diecast cars made since 1998, and lots of fans have gotten to see them at various car shows and events like the Hot Wheels Legends Tours. But most of those appearances were static displays. About a year ago Hot Wheels decided to give fans a chance to see what it was like to drive the cars in its Garage of Legends by teaming up with MotorTrend’s streaming network to produce a series of episodes highlighting six of the most popular—and outrageous—creations.

The '55 Chevy Gasser is not slowing down

It seems the old adage “The more things change, the more they stay the same” still rings true, especially for the Hot Wheels `55 Chevy Gasser! The Gasser has been in the spotlight continuously from the moment it was released, and it shows no sign of slowing down. First released in 2013, this high-riding 1955 Chevy Bel Air was designed by Brendon Vetuskey.
