DEATHCAR MODEL PROJECT

Mario Desrosiers is modifying from a 1/25 scale model kit,
a Bonnie & Clyde "death car". He has modified a two door to
a four door to make it a "Fordor" model. He has also scratch
built a rear trunk, the interior, the broken glass and most
of all Bonnie & Clyde in the same position in which they were
killed.  He is entering a model contest in August and is
hoping to finish his "DeathCar" project by then.
