    The "Out of Sight" 1966 Movie Car
"The ZRR" that marveled James Bond.
In the pick up box the driver would flip
a switch and the tailgate would fall
down,to see handgrenades, pistols,and a
rocket laucher.All four fenders shot
bullets.Then if that is not enough,the
driver paved the road with "skid juice."
Lastly there was tar and  feathering 
your  foes. 
    "The ZZR" was  made from  a extra
Munster Koach body.It was cut at the
top,and behind the and behind the first,
and second, doors.Then the front doors
were removed.Next the whole rear body
was moved forward, to line up with the
front of the body.By using the front
doors with the third doors,they could
measure how long the new door openings
would be.They used these doors,and
reinforced them with plywood.Then they
were hinged.to the body.The body was
channeled over the custom square tubular
frame.The cowl recieved a custom tall
scoop in the middle.The rear fenders
were purple from the Munster Koach
body.The long stretched fenders had
pontoons that were supported to hold
the weight of the fenders,and the two
tire carriers.The long stretched lower
side doors, fit perfectly into the shells
that covered the headlights from
France turned vertcal.Then the radiator
shell of brass which cost $5,000 to
make fit snugly into place.The top
was made of steel with two port holes.
Chrome port hole frames to secure
the port hole windows.Then top had
 Gold Naugahyde tuck and roll added.
There were yellow fringes added
around the top.The windshield frame was
simular as the Koach's windshield frame,
but a diagonal frame had to be moved to
a diagonal position,to fit into the custom
top.The engines were two Buick 425 CID
bored out to 440 CID.Each engine had two
four barrel carburaters,but the front engine,
had a Caddy air cleaner,and then,both had 
four injector large scoops.The valve covers
were chrome.The headers were like zoomy
headers,run through,a cylinder tube,which
looks like a long CO2 cartridge,to feed the
exhaust gasses,and also the loud noice from
the engine out back.The front torque tube
axel,helped with supporting the weight,of
the two heavy engines.The Radir StarMags
gave it sex appeal up front.Along with wider
fifteen  inch tires, for  support.While  behind,
the Radir Three Rib Mags on cool dirt track
Micky Thompson tires gave it the bite it the
needed to speed from their enemies,who were
after them.If someone came on the right side,
where the flower pot was,then they would get
sleeping powder,to give them a nap.The rear 
end was a Oldsmobile,and The ZRR cost 
$22,000 to make in 1966.A coolcar,to attract
woman,surfers,musicians,and also your foes.
This also came a model kit by AMT.
    Ebay will charge no less then $325.00 to buy
one,as they are in high demand,and the lab that
makes the models for Round 2,said it cost too 
much money to recrearte this kit,so expect to
pay the price,for the famous movies car The
ZRR.

  1. If you want to build Amt "Out of Sight" "The ZRR" just follow my directions.Plastic Strut has the materials to build the frame.The front wheels come from either Monagram's Volts Wagon Vans,all three,the newest,as being the Fire Bug,or many reissues of Bad Man,front mags,are actually Radir Star Mags,do not forget,to paint the center,in the dust cover in the middle red,as Radir,was a red center.The rear Radir Three Rib Mags com from Revell/Monagram Thunderbolt kits.Just use the rear mags.However use MPC vinyl tires,from switcher reissue kits.Since the front tires from,the reissued Monagram kits,like Bad Man,or any Tom Daniel kit,that has these.Olds rear rend come from a old Beatnic Bandit kit.Revel old 56 Ford Trucks,ans 53 Chevys have torque tube axels.
