Excellent work mate,Excellent work indeed
So you going to make TJ then & of course this means you HAVE to buy a 1/18th Ferrari & make Magnum too
Unless of course you can find the 3 3/4" Magnum figure that was actually made.
Again Outstanding & very inspiring too. I`m really tempted to do this too .... LOL

You could start a whole new line of "GREAT DETECTIVE VEHICLES SERIES" for BBI or 21st Century:
-Charlie's Angels -(Muscle Mustang with built in nail dryer)
-Mannix (Did he even drive a car or take a bus to the scene of the crime?)
-Barnaby Jones with NEW! cool car phone
-Cannon (Sedan with extra suspension)
-MacGiver (Jeep with swiss army knife)
Of course to make the line appeal to the kids, each vehicle would have to morph into a transformer type robot to fight crime.
If I ran the toy companies...

I think Peggy drove Mannix where ever he needed to go. But you forgot a few:
CHiPS..."Paunch" and Jon now on tricked out trikes.
Car 54...Redesigned 54 Chevy sedan courtesy of Monster Garage.
Highway Patrol...Broderick Crawford in Viper Pursuit.
Miami Vice...Sunny in a Yugo (budget cuts!!!)
Blue Thunder....Transformer (need I say more?)

Good news: great paintjob - nice work.
Bad news: it's a Hughes 500, not a Bell!

(Well, strictly speaking it's now a McDonnell Douglas Helicopters MD500, and would have been a Boeing Helicopters MD500 for a while as well, but she sure ain't a Bell!)
I think the T-tail was first introduced on the D-model for the civvie market after first use on the militarized Hughes 500 Defender...

Actually, Hughes Helicopter Division first intro'd the T-tail on their civilian version and the military adopted it when the altered the D for military uses. One of the first public viewed D's was the Magnum PI series....
