I saw this model and I liked it so I thought I would expand my group to include another US model (2 in 1:43 and now this one, in 1:18). I've tried to stick to my original goal of only going for RR, Bentley, Delage, and a few other European models, but this one is unique and very European (think Talbot Lago and Bugatti) in its styling. So, the inevitable occurred and it just arrived today.
The Guiloy 1995 Chrysler Atlantic, NIB:
The original, photographed in the Walter P. Chrysler Museum:
And a bit of technical info about the original:

It's a beauty by any measure; it's unfortunate that Chrysler couldn't bring this (or something very similar ) to the market.
About 100 years ago, while on business in Michigan, my wife finagled her way onto the passenger seat of the real one that a Chrysler executive had in the parking lot.
CONGRATS! It's nice model. 😀 😀

OP loving it, of course I want / need to copy you and get my hands on one.

Congrats! Great model. There was substantial talk about the car, here on the Zone, when they were first issued. Beautiful!

Thanks gentlemen, it is a neat model and the detail is amazing. Seatbelts are very well detailed and I was surprised when the seat backs could be moved forward, just as the 1:1 would be. You should definitely go for it, BS, it's worth every penny and it wasn't a big hit to the wallet, over here. It is also available in the same color as the original in the photo I posted from the museum.

It was displayed at the KC Auto show in the late 90's. I was surprised at how large the tires were.
