Hope you have no emotionally scarred your son by posting pictures of loss of control on the internet. Years later this may come back and haunt your family. There are reasons we don't want pictures of wrecks on this site.

So 1 of 999,999,999,999 is totalled. Those Heritages just don't hold together to well. DOH!!

Resale is going down since they are pressing them out of China. I'm going to look under my tungston when I get home to make sure there is not a "Made in China" logo on the underside.

Each night before going to bed, we host GT races with my toddler son.

I think he is putting his full weight on the car, and it's taking it's toll. It's a well weathered car, it's done at least 100+ hallway sprints, including stairs.

Clamshell is intact, but the windshield will have to be glued back into place. I hear that Duco cement works well, and that the fenders actually don't have to come off.

Some people have experienced the aluminum door trim ring coming off. Well, in his case, the entire interior door fell off.

I've noticed that mirrors are also the first thing to go.

Hey Syco what brand is the model? Tungston available? It would look real if you had a minature Bony or DBK next to it.

Silver...
DBK and Bony do not pose next to wrecked FGT's, real ones or models...
Way to depressing...
Merry Christmas and Pass the Plymouth and Makers!! :)

That would look totally real if it was just the silver piece on the door panel that fell off, just like the real ones LOL. TSB to fix door panel 3m double sided sticky tape:thumbsup
