The red '67 442 pictured above was based entirely on a car owned by Mike & Barb Siedlik who reside close to me in eastern Nebraska. Mike reports The Ertl company came down and took a total of 644 pictures of his car in October 2001 to base this diecast on. He forwarded the following pics, which illustrate the very tedious and meticulous measuring and photographing process by the company, which will ensure accurate scale on the finished pieces.

	Collector card from the Premier Edition of the Road Warrior Series. The card measures approximately 2 1/2" tall by 3 1/2" wide and has a color photo of the car on the front with an abbreviated list of stats/specs printed on the back. The stats, however, are erroneous. It lists 'triple carbs' as an available option, which is not true. A GM mandate came down in late '66 stating that no '67 A-bodies would be allowed to have the "triple deuce" setup...unfortunately for Olds fans!

Remember the '60s and all the gas wars and the radical muscle cars? Wow, it was a time when everyone wanted a tiger in their tank and a pair of dice hanging from the rearview mirror...COOL!

This is exactly what you need to set off that old hotrod or musclecar's rear-view mirror. I believe that Exxon gave these out with a full tank of gas in the late sixties.
