This morning, Acme Diecast announced that they will produce a Limited Edition 1/18 scale 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 as driven to the 1970 SCCA TransAm Manufacturers Championship by Parnelli Jones:
Throughout his illustrious career, Parnelli Jones won championships in just about every type of racing he tried, from oval tracks and road courses to the Baja 500. There were many iconic cars driven by Parnelli over the years and one of the most important is the 1970 Boss 302 Mustang in which he won the Trans Am Championship in 1970, the most competitive season in the history of that storied series.
Acme has announced a 1/18 scale diecast replica based on Parnelli's famous school bus yellow #15 Mustang as raced in the 1970 season finale, the 'Mission Bell 200' at Riverside International Raceway. Parnelli's Riverside victory not only gave Bud Moore racing the team championship, but also sealed the Manufacturer's title for Ford.
This model is scheduled for release in the third quarter of 2015. Edition size has not been finalized as yet but is expected to be under 1000.
Advance reservations STRONGLY suggested!
