 1/18 1972 Valiant Charger E49 R/T Sunfire Yellow by Biante / AUTOart 
That little 6 cylinder with the hemispherical heads originally conceived as an American truck engine, was developed by the wizards in Chrysler Australia to produce 302bhp and 320 lb/ft torque that hooked up with a new 4-speed trans in a 3000 lb car made it the fastest 6 cylinder car on the planet until Porsche overtook it in the late 70s. It out accelerated the vaunted Aussie Falcon V8 interceptor by well over a second in the 1/4 mile which probably what made Max "Mad". Only 149 E49s were built and only three were done in this Sunfire Yellow color. This Charger VH was touted as the most esthetic design ever to come out of Australia. Although it somehow lacks the edgy muscularity of its American namesake, it seems that there is an actual wolf inside the sheep's clothing.
