Here is one that was unfortunately never issued, the MATRA 650, and it is really too bad because it would have made a lovely kit:

These are the kit parts as they were supposed to be:

I am still crying about that one, I always loved that car.
Here is one that was issued, but in its later "K" version. I would have preferred the wild look of the Langheck, but by the time the molds were ready to be cut, the car had changed:

One that was not issued for whichever reason was this Porsche 911R, later issued by other companies. This is the only one of which I still have the actual original vellum drawing:

This one is well known and was re-issued by a Japanese company several times, from molds leased from the Heller company:

The kit ended up nicely, here is one I put together for adverts in 1968:

This is the great little Renault R8 Gordini 1300, a really fun car that put Minis to shame:

The kit rendered the car very realistically, complete with Delta Mics alloy wheels and little fiberglass flares over the front wings:


More later... if anyone cares.
