I have attached some photos of the yellow version that I just received.Good value for the price.The last photo is the case that I bought at a Canadian dollar store called Dollarama. It is supposed to be used for womans jewellery storage but if placed upside down with the wooden base on the bottom, it makes a perfect display case for 1/64 models. They also make a larger one which is perfect for 1/43.

I will also mention that a new company called "7 Model Studio" is releasing a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 in 4 different colors. It appears to be of very high quality but in my opinion is currently overpriced .On Aliexpress at $52.68 CDN (about US 38.50 ). I would be interested if anyone can find it at a lower price.

If I would have I would have surely noticed cause it’s very, very cool IMHO. Doe’s anyone know much about it? When I searched so far I found that it’s a 50th Anniversary Limited Edition, I snatched it up quick about 15 minutes ago.

A 75 year old walks into a bar with a parrot on his shoulder. 

The barman asks: "Hey, where did you get him?" 

The parrot answers: "At a nursing home, they're all over the place there!"

It came with heavy duty suspension and Positraction. This family hauler is rare and collectible with only 546 produced. With the standard 427, 0-60 in 7.2 seconds and a 1/4 mile time of 15.6. It offered all the luxe options of the Impala and even had a flip down step on the bumper for easy access to the rear facing 3rd seat. It's nickname? The "Draggin' Wagon". Oddly, there was no "427" call-out on the front fenders although many owners put Impala badges on the fenders.
