I have that kit! Bought it at a swap meet probably 15 years ago for $20. It had been assembled at one point. I got it stripped and disassembled in the og box, everything is there, even some skis if I remember right

The World's Fastest Indian is a 2005 New Zealand biographical film based on the Invercargill, New Zealand speed bike racer Burt Munro and his highly modified Indian Scout motorcycle. Munro set numerous land speed records for motorcycles with engines less than 1000 cc at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah in the late 1950s and into the 1960s.

Madison is a 2001 film about APBA hydroplane racing in the 1970s. It stars James Caviezel as a driver who comes out of retirement to lead the Madison, Indiana community-owned racing team.

Background

Madison, Indiana, on the Ohio River, has sponsored powerboat racing since 1911 and began holding an annual race called the Madison Regatta in 1929. Beginning in 1954, the race became affiliated with the American Power Boat Association, held annually in July. Though Madison has a population of only 12,000, the Regatta maintains its place in the Unlimited hydroplane American Boat Racing Association series, whose other races are in Seattle, Detroit, and San Diego, among others.

The Regatta regularly draws about 70,000-100,000 people and is a tremendous source of pride for residents of the town. Also significant is that Madison has the world?s only community owned unlimited hydroplane, Miss Madison. The boat was traditionally near the bottom of the circuit. In 40+ years of racing, U-6 (its number regardless of its name) had won just six races before 2005.
One of those was an upset in the 1971 Regatta, which is the basis for the movie. Making that victory even sweeter was that it also for the APBA Gold Cup.
Caviezel?s character, Jim McCormick, was a real-life veteran racer and boat owner who drove the Miss Madison in 1966 and 1969?71, then raced his own boat until seriously injured some years later.

No... I wish! At the time of those photos it was owned by a guy on an old Schwinn collector forum.

It last was sold at auction a few years ago for over $300,000 :cool
